Wyatt uses superb descriptive dialog in his tutorials. Some instructional videos leave you wondering what the heck they're talking about. I understood every step of this tutorial. Great instructor ..thanks!

So well done, Wyatt. Thank you. I just got done with a 3 week class, with a teacher whom really couldn't teach. I learned more in this one video, than I did in 3 classes. You have an even-toned voice, a cute sense of humor, and a clear way of describing things.

Wyatt is awesome. You can see him on JTV at times too. The banding pliers he is using in this video, he invented them!!! And many other tools, as well as gallery wire. Wyatt, you're the best. Love watching him on JTV. Would love to take a class with you.

Finally a clear-cut tutorial that I can grasp and attempt. I have done some wire wrapping of sea glass but this technique will help me to figure out how to finish it off nicely without the wire poking. Thanks!

Gary Boyce is my husband...I'm Dixie Rhoades Boyce. I'm learning all the time about wire wrapping. Live in a tiny town in New Mexico, so learning from You Tube is wonderful for me. Your a wonderful teacher! Easy to learn from! Your work is beautiful!!! Thank you for taking the time to show us your talents! Dixie on facebook

Thank you for an easy to follow directions. I don't like when people add music to the background.I've watched a couple of your how to videos and they are very informative.

@MadeDiscoMorAtraktiv 13 years ago

Thanks for the video. I found it really informative and the guest you had spoke with a good speed, and didn't over complicate it as I find most do. Keep 'em coming.

This really taught me something very important . How to wrap a stone. Now I want to use wrapping and coiling to embellish the piece I made, I am using an evil eye glass cabochon and I will embellish it to look more like an eye. then I will set that into a larger pendant with other elements. Great tutorial!

@Deb1650 6 years ago

It's so great how you talk the student through the lesson. But now I'm wondering if I will have the patience for a project like this! Ha! :-)

@Ninjatoertchen 13 years ago

Actually english is not my mother tongue but your tutorial is very very nice to understand. I think you´ve done a very helpful and awesome job! Thank you very much!

I have a heart shaped stone that someone wants to wrap . It will be my first time doing a wrap it was just perfect for my project. Thank you it was so amazing watching you do this .

@wendylee4141 13 years ago

Very well done. Clear and slow enough that I didn't have to keep going back to re-see or re-hear something. Thanks! Oh - and it also helps to build my confidence when I see that other people do silly things like measure once, cut twice! or expect a heart but can't do it do to the nature of the design. That was worth every second of my time!

Thanks sooooooo much for having clean fingernails and a decent manicure . So many people make these videos with gross nails and it doesn't matter how good the video is .
You just can't watch it all. Your information was great too, btw !

@hannahhorner9361 13 years ago

This was such a good video, very detailed. I incorporated this idea into a pendant for my mom, hopefully she will love it as much as I do.

@saskiadavies111 9 years ago

I appreciate the good lighting and the close shots. You do well at keeping your hands from obscuring what you're doing and at explaining why the materials, tools and techniques work together. Great job and lovely work!

I very much appreciate how clearly the directions are given, as well as the quality of the video. I will be saving this one to attempt at some point (I have a large selection of undrilled stones that need this treatment!
