Here's a cab and wrap that I just finished, made from a slab rockjunquie sent me a million years ago- I've been wanting to wrap it for a while. Ok, it wasn't a million years ago. Maybe a year ago.   |

I like how you finished your wrap around the bail, Mike. The wires swoop around and over the "shoulder" in a way that complements the shape of the cab.

I was trying to balance out the shape a little bit, it's definitely not a perfect oval by any means. I don't use templates yet (maybe someday I will), so it seems like I have to try to do that a lot! |

You did the stone justice.  I like them both. I can't get over how much nicer your bails are. Very nice. You are all pro and what not. |

And you're making me  . Not even close to all pro- I have a long way to go...especially compared to a certain someone's wraps... But thank you! |

Don't compare yourself to people who have been wrapping 20 years. You've come a long way and I think you are there. |

You just keep at it and you will continue to improve from good to outstanding. You work hard and it shows. Every one is better than the last one. |

Beautiful, both the cab and the wrap. Tela is right, don't compare yourself to other wire wrappers, everyone has a different style and develops different ways of doing wraps and all are equally artistic and beautiful. Also if you compare yourself to people like Tela it will drive you crazy - don't ask how I know that ;-)
