Made this cab a while back just playing with some grape agates. It's a fat one. Thanks for looking...  |

I like it! You did a good job catching that chubby agate in your wire.  |

Another fine wrap. I like the embellishment.
Every cab will be different. Ya never know what challenges you will get. But, after you've met a bunch, you just get that much more proficient.

That's a nice tight job, Mike. I really like the decorative treatment near the bail!

Great cab man. I really like the bail and what you did at the bottom.

I've been looking through all your wrap posts, and this is definitely one of my favourites! When I read you were just starting out, I was like "Nahhhhh" Gorgeous! |

I like this one a lot! It is hard enough finding a unique stone with patterns like this. But you have been able to accent that even more by wrapping it. The wrap at the top is super cool and looks like a present. The color of the frame wire plays against the natural color of the stone really well. I still don't know how you got lucky to get this cab. Most of the time it is difficult to tell what a cab is going to be once you start grinding away at it and stuff. This is lucky.
