This is I think Enchantment turquoise, any way its a very nice green with a brownish very fine lacy matrix with a darker green matrix also. The nicest turqioise cab I ever made. My first wrap, made with 22 gauge square n half round from Micheals hobby and a old pair of needle nose pliers! My swirls are not even but to be honest I am proud as all getout! Hey the cab didnt fall out n aint gonna either!!! Fingers crossed!!! Thanks folks!!!!

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
