need some help here: Copper cuff

There you go Chris! I thought the first one looked pretty good, but you've clearly outdone yourself already!

As for a ball vise, it's one of these. The one Stacy has sounds a lot cooler though! I actually just started hunting for a cheap ball vise after starting to learn silver wire inlay from Dan Farr while I was in Rocheser on business a week or so ago. I'll likely end up making one out of a bowling ball and a drill press vise for now since I'm a cheapskate and ball vises aren't cheap.

Keep it up man, you're doing great!

thanks so much!
that vise looks really cool.. and as i have no way of holding small stuff, very enticing... some day when i have room.. one day
thanks so much for the encouragement.. and actually.. i have done some inlay.. but it was pretty bad.. and i used silver solder *grins*
thanks again

Great job man. Let us know what she says about that one after it is finished. What did you use on the other bracelet to keep it from turning her wrist green and also to keep the finish on it.
 
Looks good Chris. Remind me in the spring and I'll bring some old gravers up to Harrisonburg for you.

pimp... i used buffing wax on an electric buffer for the other one... thas why it is so shiny.. it also protects the metal ALOT.. just my experience.. but i am going to kote that one too when i get the stuff
