These earrings are the smallest I have done (12x20). Groove wrapping the smaller cabs is not too tough but trying to hold the small cabs while cutting the grooves is a real pain.   Thanks for looking Chuck |

Thanks guys. I tried hard to chase the pattern on the right hand earring but that was as close as it could get and with this material it is really easy to go too far.

I think they look great, too! I haven't cabbed any yet, but I can see that it is difficult to do what you do. (If it isn't difficult, don't admit it! LOL!)

Chuck, I'm having a "duh" moment. What is the material? Fordite?
