This is a great set. The second from last was my favorite.

I thought something looked different about these so I went back to check some of your recent previous wrap posts. I was right, the quality of wire used looks much better and the use of half round on the bindings helps too. These even look like a heavier gauge wire too and it is all working very well. I might be off but those were just observations.

Yes gingerkid still doing the coloured wire . And Drummond these are Argentium sliver , so much easier to work with. Not sure of the names . I am sure there are a few who could tell us. I just cut ,shape and tumble and wrap them .

I love love love all of them and the fourth one is my favorite, it's just awesome! I'm still using Parawire and I actually really like their silver wire, but the gold parawire has a life of its own. I cannot wait till I am good enough to use the good stuff like Argentium and gold filled. How much different did it feel to use the Argentium?
