I cabbed and wrapped a piece of spectrolite today that I got from carleton. It had a dead spot on it, which I really liked, so I made it the focal point of the cab.

I was going to wrap it in silver then thought copper might work better with the color.

Raw copper.

After using LOS.

I wrapped another opal as well, but the bail is sloppy..again..I think I will try wrap no. 3 on this one tomorrow lol.

Thanks for looking

I've seen worse, but the stone is such a stellar one, I would want it to be perfect, too.

You can always redo it, but i bet ya someone would love to have it the way it is.

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
