Wow. I haven't wrapped anything for awhile...and two of the stones I wrapped today were Cold Mountain Thunderegg! LOL

I think the stone and the wrap look very nice!

Why are you thinking ovals are a "pain" for you?

Funny, and thank you!
They just seem harder for me to get the bail centered sometimes....

Gotcha! I struggle with that too. I started marking the front of the cab with a pencil mark to have a visual reminder of the "center" at the top of the oval. The pencil mark rubs off easy enough...

I finished a cab a few minutes ago - a wide oval, and when it was done, I saw the entire wrap had "shifted" from center. Luckily, I was actually able to grip the cab and tweak/rotate the entire wrap just a few degrees to get it back to being centered. I was very lucky on that one...
