Beautiful wrap. Not too fancy so as to distract from the wonderful cab.

Thanks! Toad- I'm glad that you said that, because I was told not to make it "too fancy", because the recipient of this one wasn't into all of that. When I was finished, I was second-guessing whether or not I had succeeded. I'm always a really bad judge of my own work. lol

Definitely the favorite wrap I've seen since I've been back on the boards.

This is the second cab that I've wrapped for him, not sure if you remember the first. It was a piece of amber, one of the coolest cabs that I've wrapped so far.

Randy, that one is just elegant. When you wrapped the Amber, did you have to worry about the wire scratching the stone while wrapping it? I know Amber is quite soft.

Honestly, I wasn't really thinking about it. When I do my wrapping, most of it is done "off" the cab until I get to the bail. I do some measuring, make marks on a sheet of paper and just go with it. I never really know what the design will be until I'm actually doing it.

Randy, Absolutely perfect. The cab is drop dead gorgeous & your wrap brings that out to perfection. Just enough "foo-foo", but not enough to overwhelm.
Love it. Jo

He's right, I've watched him do it too. Totally off the cuff and intuitive with the stone. This one's a gem, Randy. Mission accomplished! Jo

Randy ....
Have you ever done any wrap that does not scream "Perfect"?
I absolutely love looking at your work. I never get tired!!!
wanders off in search of roaming wire spool to make sure it goes to Randy

Thanks Julie ;D .... None of them look perfect to me, but I think that most everyone feels the same about their own work. I usually think to myself "It ain't perfect, but it looks pretty damn OK" ;D Thanks y'all!!
