Hell yeah is right and that last wrap is a real beauty and way to precise. lol When I grow up I want to wrap like you but I doubt that that will ever happen. You are way too good.

Randy, these rock. Can I make a suggestion? I know I can. ;D
Can you turn the cut ends under so the copper inside the black doesn't show?

Don't know how you figure mediocrity fits into these, they are great like your stuff always is.

I love these! I especially like the black wire. It's so dramatic! I like the 2nd and third best.  Beautiful work- on the stones and wraps. ;D |

Thanks! "FrogAndBearCreations" turned me on to the black wire, I love wrapping with it. It seems to go great with most types of stone, some of course do scream for gold and silver. I'm still not tired of cabbing Noreena yet, it's the coolest!! I only wish that I had purchased the three large remaining chunks, but I didn't want to be greedy at the time. I shoulda purchase at least two of them ;D

I'm with Tela on this one...Second and third wraps I like the best. All great wraps but those two have an openess to them that's really lovely! Last stone is the Killer Cab, though. Very dramatic rock!

The one in which the actor in the commercial says "I bet you can't eat just one" That is what you have to say to anyone who asks why you wrap so many Noreena cabs. You have to say in a challenging tone; I bet you can't wrap just one. LOL Stu |

very very nice .......... I agree ... Very, VERY nice! Good wire wrap always hits the spot for me, since my tremor makes my wire wrapping look like a Paris road map. :cheesy: I stick to mining & cutting stone! That Noreena truly kicks it, Randy. I say "More, more, more!" Best regards, Kris |

"rockjunquie" is the wrap master, but I appreciate it nonetheless. I just finished cutting, grinding and polishing another Noreena cab, this one is badass! I'm wrapping it right now.

Randy, thanks for the props, but we all do our own thing and you have certainly mastered yours. You have a refined simplicity and elegance. You never over do the swirls, your wraps are tight and neat and you respect the stone. You have an attention to detail and clearly enjoy what you are doing. Those things combine for a look and feel all your own. Anyone could spot your work right away. I really enjoy seeing it. I can say without reservation that few do swirls as well as you do them. And, that is a high compliment. It's so easy to get wrong. I know, I suck at them. |
