Thank you, Adrian!!!! The bit I missed before was what you were doing to the wire to make everything come out SO even! I get it now!  I'm dying to try my hand at this! |

Adrian, I'm brand new to the board (although been reading for some time) and this is just what I needed to feel like I know where I'm going when I try my first wrap. Thank you!

Top tutorial Adrian!!
Another great method to add to my list of must-do's!!
Now, if only I could bend the wire without it looking like a disaster area I could have a go at wire-wrapping!!!

Adrian:
That was so aweome that you took the time to post all those pics and such clear instructions, maybe once I make another 100 cabs and get that down I can attempt this, but I sure hope tonyterner tries this soon, it really accentuates the cabs which is what I like, emphasis on the stones. You are a sweetie.

I was completely hooked when I went through your tutorial. I will have to try and cab with a WF saw and tumble 'em. Pick the best and try a groove wire wrap. Looks like a fun challange. Are you trying for a domed effect for the wire resting in the groove or lay the wire flush to the edge of the cab? Looks great and like a real hoot to try. Thanks

Thank you for the table. I think 18 to 20 would work best. I make the wire flush to the edge of the cab, I like more the look of the pendant done this way.

Thanks for your work on this Adrian. I really like the Pacific drop you made too! That second picture of the front view really shows the color of the jade nicely.
