I haven't wrapped a stone in ages, so I figured since I was playing around with some bowlerite I got I may as well knock off the cobwebs and try wrapping it as well. I figured a groove wrap would be easiest... You sure can tell I'm rusty.  The dots that look like pits are actually sparkles. Thanks for looking. |

Beautiful wrap..................I inherited my Grandpas horseshoe set+his bowling ball(he bowled state tournaments,ND)-was thinking of slicing it up and making cabs from it..
I like that blue color you have going with that Bowlerite.........

Thanks everyone.
Fossilman, be careful if you do cut that ball. I cut a grove with an angle grinder, & what a dusty mess. Then I still had to smash it with a sledge to get it to break apart.
I think a much better way would be a horizontal bandsaw used for metal. Now that I have mine in pieces I'll try that. Hopefully I get even slabs from it.

That's a nice piece. Good color and cool with the sparkles and swirls.
