I found some wire, guess I had packed the last of it in another bag. Found it last night so thought I'd finish it off by trying to wrap one of the cabs Randy gave me. It was a tough one for me, never done that shape before. I wrapped it in 22g copper. I believe it is Ocean Jasper (correct me if I'm wrong Randy).  It took the last of my wire so I'm hoping I get what I ordered from Rio Grande soon. I'm already out of practice  Thanks for looking. Diane |

That turned out perfect, and the loops go with the patterns of the cab. Very cool!!  |

Very nice Diane. I like the swirlies at the corners.

That's beautiful. Gives me kind of a jungle feeling. I love it.

Oh- not 100% sure on the stone except that it's not OJ, it's a variation of leopardskin jasper.

That one turned out great! The stone really looks good in copper!

Well, I'll call it leopardskin jasper until I'm told otherwise, sounds good to me...lol. Thanks again Randy.
Thanks Fran, I wasn't sure about the copper on that one but that was the only wire I had left and that cab seemed a likely candidate to get my feet wet on the concave shapes. By the way, that was a bugger to wrap especially the pointy corners. Anyone have any tips on wrapping those?
