Sweet, Dodge Ram. Or Borat's bikini, as someone pointed out when I posted a pic of the same wrap.

Thanks again, this one is the first one from from your book Billy, and my 13 year old son did most of it.

Gary, thanks for letting me know that - it's nice to know a 13 y/o "gets it". What part didn't he finish on the wrap? Here is the post I was referring to, which just made me laugh again: [ link ]

Billy, that's too funny, got to show my boy. He did most of the wrap, I would stay up after he went to bed and pack the hell out of it. I helped lay it out but he did 90% including all guide wraps. Being all metal it was a bit of a bear. He really does get it and is wanting to do more. Reads you book all the time trying to figure it out. I envy his perfect vision and small skillfull hands.

Packing that much nightmare is not something I will ever do. Ralphie does an excellent job with all metallic wraps, adn so does the Colling tandem. If he has questions, he/you can e-mail me and ask. I have some more confusing info posted elsewhere, which I intentially left out of my book as I didn't want to "scare" people off, as it is a bit outside the box & a wrap can be done without doing all this stuff. If he/you like Math/logic types of things, this may be of interest to you: [ link ]

That's really interesting stuff. The most difficult part of wrapping for me is figuring out the spacing for the layout. The Dodge ram wasw done using the blank diameter and pass number from your in's and out's chart in your book. Work this time burt I know it's not right. I still don't get it, but the light will eventually go on. I would like to be able to e-mail the odd question to you if you don't mind, but I don't have your e-mail. If so inclined send it to me at gcolling1@cogeco.ca
