I gave a friend some Onyx pendents so he could learn to wire wrap. I think he got the hang of it a little faster then me. Honestly, What do you think of this wire wrap? Jason

That's a really nice wrap, I think he was fibbing to you and has been wrapping for a long long time!

That's his first wrap? Wow. He got it right off the bat, didn't he? I think it's very pretty. I can see he had the same trouble as I did with bending the wire with the tools (left wire). All in all, it's great!

No this is not the first but it may bee the 10th or so. I have done about 20 and ended up tearing them apart. I just can't get it. Jason

That's his first wrap? Naaaa, everything is too tight and uniform. He's had practice somewhere. That one looks great!!

great job for the 10th? try. I must say he had assistance in wire wrapping... maybe you? Or at least a model to look at. I know when Jeremy (Jonje) and I began, we had wire everywhere and were using the same wires for the wrap and bindings. and even before that we didnt know what a binding was... hahaha. as I said. nice job

Very nice wrap! Is that cab "related" with the one from your contest?

Looks really good! He did a good job working with the composition of the stone and it looks really nice. Maybe the guy who made it read some wire wrapping posts. That's how I learned. Steve

I think he read a whole book or 2 or 3.
Adrian, Yes it is the same type of Onyx.
