Hey Randy, you're not too tired to teach Amber to wirewrap next weekend... you're not gonna let Amber get away with that, are you?

If we go for sushi there is a chance I could develop an allergic reaction, and might be too sick to wrap!!! LOL!!! Don't forget Randy you have to give me doming lessons as well, you will be bald by the time I leave!!! You will be pulling out your locks one by one!!!!

6 wraps a day! My fingers hurt if I do 2. Every one looks perfect. Even doing that many you must have taken your time to do them right. WTG on setting a new Guinness World Record!

Congrats on the job-I kinda wondered how you had so much time on your hands! Bad news for all of us though-we'll be seeing less of your beautiful work here now that you've got a "real" job!

Nope, I live for this stuff! I'll still be doing at least 2 every night after I start back up. (I'm taking a one week break)

That is a great work Randy. They all look good, tight, neat and clean. Did the guy provide the stones or is that your work too? I am very impressed, my friend!

Beautiful wraps Randy. Can't believe the volume you do and still have such nice work.

Thanks Banjo- They're all his stones, he lets me go through his stack of riker mounts and pick out the ones that I wanna wrap.

Randy...one of my main complaints about wire wrapping is when too much of the wire covers up the actual stone itself. I REALLY like how the majority of your swirls & curls are above or to the side of the pendant. Nice work buddy!

I looked at these. Then I went back up and looked again, then again. Randy, you just keep getting better when I think you can't get any better! Thanks for posting so we can all enjoy your incredible work! Good luck on the new job. Garry

What's really cool is to look back on the progression of Randy....from vibe polished cabs with glue on bails to these beautiful works of art! Cool-i-o!
