Hello, everyone! I have purchased this pictural jasper pre-form when we visited the Ogallalla petrified wood museum. Those two pyramids caught my eye and I tried to frame them into a shape which also reminds of a pyramid. Here is the cab: The cab is very thin on the border, between 3.30 and 3.60 mm and I'm glad I managed to cut the groove without chipping it. Here is the groove wrapped pendant: Thanks for looking, Adrian

In pic 2, the pyramids are hiding behind the light and shine caused by the sun god. Just beautiful.

What an amazing scene--and you found the perfect way to not only cut it, but to form the pendant. Picture jasper always amazes me, but yours is exceptionally nice.

I really like your wraps. I recently got a groove cutting head so here pretty soon I am going to give it a whirl.

Thank you everyone!
Christopher, good luck in starting to groove wrap, I'm sure you are going to make some beautiful pendants. I'd like to see how some of your fire agates would look this way.
