Did a copper wire inlay on this one as an experiment. I plan on purchasing 24k gold wire for our wedding bands. Pretty pricey to experiment with process, tooling, finishing or material. I’ll get that down first The wood is Mopane, a South African hardwood. The wire was a bit testy to get in place, but it’s very fine wire. Actually it’s medium fly tying rib wire. The CA glue finish is pretty spectacular. From the looks of the pics, I could use a manicure.Rg
