OK, I admit it, I'm hooked. I'll try not to insult your sensitivities any more until I have gotten better.......After this one ;D This is basically the same wrap as the first one, just a minor change here and there. Should I go ahead and plunge with decent wire, or should I practice some more? Curt

Take the plunge. You'll be surprised at how much easier real silver is to work.

TAKE THE PLUNGE!!!!!! You've got the talent and the drive and gorgeous cabs, too. All you need now are the wires that will do them justice! Plunge! Plunge!

O.K. I found the picture. That is really beautiful. It looks almost like Goldstone. Love the black.

again, good job. I would go for it... you have the eye. Just be careful when you use the real stuff not to mar the wire... that is the hardest thing for me. and I absolutely love square wire as opposed to round wire. Keep it up

I think you should take the plunge too. Its much easier and you are doing great as it is so just think how much better it will look in silver.

And just think - if you don't like what you wrap, you can either send the scraps to Rio Grande for credit or save it until you get the silversmithing bug!

What a nice wrapped piece! I think you are skilled in wrapping, some propper wires would help you a lot.
