Finished this one today and I'm mostly pleased with how it turned out.
No nicks, no twisted wire...
But the bail. Argh.
I love this cab and may redo it with gold wire. I haven't decided yet.
I'll keep practicing.
Thanks for looking.

Love that stone, Mike! Wrap looks good and congrats on no nicks or twists. You may try just separating the two bail wires a bit and see if that doesn't make you like it more (use a knife to get between them without nicking anything up).

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis
