I shall. But be forewarned as I am learning and realizing I am very heavy handed, I am doing primarily pendants for wire wraps.
I really haven't conquered the "cabbing" yet, as I tend to be impatient and push the stone to hard and grind it into nothing. So, first step is to learn to be more light handed and patient.
To make pendants, it still takes time, but I am more able to free form, create more interesting and one of a kind pieces and not have to worry about trying to make sure the cab is perfect.
Learning to crawl, before I can walk, learning to walk, before I can run.
