I have never wrapped a stone in my life. I want to learn. Do any of you know of a GOOD site that shows the steps involved?
Thanks!

I used a book that Bernies lapidary sells, "Contemporary wirewrapping". It gave me a good start. www.bernieslapidary.com

I used this page to get the basics down... although I don't like how the ends of the wires are finished. Beyond the basic technique, I'd look on this page or search wrapped cabs for ideas on what to do with the ends. jewelrymaking.about.com/library/weekly/aa112398.htm
