This is s test to see if I can post a pic. This is a group of Turquoise Cabs I made, they are backed with Devcon Steel reinforced epoxy, its black. The glue on findings are hypoallergenic and won't turn you green! LOL. Forgot to put the quarter in for size reference. THE top left green variquoise is the size of a quarter. Hope this works.

Hey Bill it works. Pretty turquoise. Are the bails glued on bails?

Yes Jhon I sell a bunch of them! I can wire wra and cold forge wire wrap and even silver smith but folks don't want to pay for the silver. THANKS those are some good stuff the skinny one is Number 8. The triangle one is a waterweb from Kingman. My fav is the dark one ay b the top right, it's from my claim.

You may have to give me a little tutorial. Are you using a round wire and hammering out a flat for a bail?

Yes the entire wrap is 14 gauge sterling. I teach a verynpopular class at the Gem Club in Qusrtzsite. I mostly do it using copper and jewelers bronze. I teach you when we go hounding or sitting around a campfire in Q!
