A few new wraps

Postby tonyterner on Tue Sep 09, 2008 8:21 am

I've been plugging away at wrapping. Not sure if anything I've made is good enough to wear yet but I'll keep plugging. The wrapped cabs are in chronological order. The bails are something I came up with. I wanted fancier glue on bails than the ones I was buying.

This was my first solo attempt. I didn't like working with the copper, too soft.

Next try, a bit better.

A couple of throw-a-ways later I made this one.

And my latest one.

My bails.

Your latest one shows definite improvement. I like the bails as well.
