What should I do with this?
I found this tin when we were cleaning out Mum and Dads house.
I have no idea what or where they came from, I wonder if he got them from a beach some where. as the tin is rusty.

Any idea of what I can do with them.

Turn a bowl, superglue a layer of the stone to the bottom & cover with resin - result a beach bowl :rolling: OK I'll get me coat

Make bowls or platters with a wide rim, cut a groove in the rim, glue stones in the groove & fill with resin. Just another variation of Tony’s theme.

Throw the stones away clean the tin and use it to store those screws that you will never use just like our fathers or grand fathers would have done :funny::funny::funny:

I like the idea of in-bedding them in resin around the rim as Bill suggested.
