You have some nice looking emeralds in that batch. Will set nice in wire wrap. Great work. A couple need to go back in but the rest are good. Congrats.

WHAT- You scan the rocks in? How How How- I have a great little scanner- but I have never tried a 3 dimensional scan- Do you place a background on top of the rocks or what? Or do I just need to go home throw them on the scanner and scan em?

I change the background cover with what I am scanning, what you see here is a piece of velveteen, and sometimes I use a white or off white towel.

I never thougth of using the scanner, I was always afraid if I held it upside down, it might not work again.
