I am starting to see and hear more about beading around cabs.
These are great examples. I say keep posting them and when in doubt there's always the "creations" part of the forum for things that dont fit anywhere else.

Are there any books or tutorials that teach this?

Beautiful!!! You did a great job on these. I have always wanted to do this. I know it can't be easy, but you made it look easy.

The first and last are my favs. The first one has a nice frilly look and the last one is just awesome!

I love the way the beads compliment the rock and vice versa.

This is the perfect place to put these. Great idea! Nice work!

No there isn't a wire in it at all. I haven't found any good tutorials on this. I had a friend teach me.

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)
