whoooooo sands this ones purdy! this is from my cabojohn collection back when he use to put some on ebay (hint, hint). did you use the polish from cyberrockhound on this? it is shiny, shiny! i had to off-center the bail as the angles are freeformed. in the pic this kind of stands out but in real life you don't notice it at all. now get to cabbing sands!  kim |

Kim that is great - do you use your fingers or pliers to bend the wire?? I can't see any marks on the wire *picture of back?*  |

Now that is an amazing wrap! And that material is tough to get a good shine on too. Outstanding work Kim and Sands!.....mel

whatever you used sands it is really shiney! i said that wrong didn't i - my bail is centered but the angles meet off center so i had to compensate. tweetie i use my hands and my tools but probably more my hands. i have to use the pliers to make an angle bend and i like to pinch each turn of the binding wire to make sure it's secure but the swirls are done with my fingers only. i wrap my tools with masking to tape going around each one at least 3 times in tape. i keep an eye on my tape and if it starts to wear too much i replace it. the one to watch the closest is the round pliers. it doesn't take much use to wear through the tape on the round ones. the other ones you can go 2-3 wraps without needing to replace but the round ones are another story. here's the back too tweetie  kim |

The back is just a beautiful as the front, that is one of those pendants that you wouldn't mind it turning.
