I have selected around 70 free form cabs completed in the last year. They've been sitting in boxes with not much to do. I have tried wire wrapping and hate it. I am pretty good with my hands but have NO talent in this area.
I've posted links to photos in the "Members Photographs" area - if you are interested.
Am looking for someone who likes wrapping and is in need of cabs. Anyone? Anyone at all? Thanks.

Yes! I'm interested and I've taken a look, and I will happily wrap some for you in exchange for some cabs that I like. I will have to look again to get you the numbers of the pics of my favorite cabs (to identify them for you). We can talk further, but I just wanted to say quickly that I am interested and will do more with it tomorrow when I have more time!

Ok, here are the ones I like.
#1 (light brown/white)
#9 (red w/white)
#14 (dark w/red in it)
#33 (pink stone);
#60 (mauve-y)
#76 (purple/orange-y);
# 100 (brown & white)
#102 (blue) #137 (light & dark brown, similar to #100);
#122 (pale red/orange)
#153 (w/red in it) *same as #23?
Are photos 120 and 121 of the same stone? They look the same except one picture shows a bigger shape on the side, whereas photo 121 shows the stone as looking more even.
Let me know what you would like to do. I have 4 types of wire: copper, silver-filled, sterling silver, and gold-filled. You can pick what wire and the design (if you have a preference)..anyway looking forward to this!

I just have to throw this in there.... that stand that you made for the round leopardskin is absolutely the greatest! Wow! That's some serious talent!

Thanks much, rockjunquie. I've been carving a lot longer than rockin'. Have tried to incorporate carving with displaying polished stones. Sometimes it works - sometimes it doesn't. I've a few more to post as I finish them. Don
