Richmond-area man turns ordinary nails into mini swords

Give Hanover resident Brendan Shelton a hammer and an ordinary nail and he'll turn it into a sword small enough for a Lego figure to wield. Why it matters: What started as a childhood experiment has become a roughly 15-year hobby — and an unlikely side hustle selling miniature swords to collectors on Etsy and at the Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen. The backstory: "I just wanted to make weapons for my Lego figures," Shelton tells Axios. He taught himself using tools in his parents' garage around age 11, discovering that nails were soft enough to shape. Shelton, now 27, has since made hundreds, including swords, axes, spears and tiny rifle look-a-likes inspired by movies and video games. The process. Photo: Courtesy of Ben Comenetz, founder of CreativeCultureRVA How it works: Shelton hammers nails into tiny, realistic-looking swords, complete with handles and guards. The hammering takes less than an hour, but Shelton admits he loses track of time when adding the finishing touches. He also leaves the pieces unsharpened unless a customer requests otherwise. From nail to mini sword. Photo: Courtesy of Ben Comenetz, CreativeCultureRVA By the numbers: His Etsy shop, MicroArmory , has recorded 111 sales since 2021,

A 312-year-old Stradivarius made a secret stop in Fredericksburg

For one night in October, the James Monroe High School auditorium was home to one of the most famous violins in the world, and almost nobody knew it was coming. Violinist Timothy Chooi joined the Fredericksburg Symphony Orchestra on Oct. 23 for Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto, playing the 1714 “Dolphin” Stradivarius, the instrument famously associated with Jascha Heifetz. For security reasons, the orchestra didn’t announce the violin’s appearance in advance.

Between Richmond And Norfolk Is A Virginia Archaeological Site With A Fascinating Museum And River Views

While colonial landmarks can be found up and down the East Coast, few states lay claim to as many well-preserved colonial sites as Virginia. For most, Williamsburg is likely the first to spring to mind; its restored buildings, horse-drawn carriages, and costumed historical interpreters have made it one of the most famous living museums in the nation, if not the world. But less than 10 miles southwest lies another of Virginia's colonial capitals that, unlike the cobblestone streets of Williamsburg, is buried mostly beneath the soil.
