    could you explain verities(truths?) of the same design? Amongst my
    ideas for CAD are to roughout ideas out for me to do the final
    forming by hand, on,,,, You do 10 of the same piece, very rough, in
    carving wax, and the rougher it is the more the final works can be
    different from each other, but in the same motif, thus series',, and
    also to apply the same motif to different shapes,, and carve to
    finish

    I would rather feel and look at the material, only, as i am carving
    it, and getting with some hendrix,, and not have anything in mind to
    start out,, that gives the real originals that are one of a kind
    carvings, and designs(ideas),, and really suprise the hell out of me
    sometimes,,, but i do like drawing out ideas also,, and finally am
    doing the doodles that i have made for years, in 3d form! .

    I pray for this every day,,, i can't find a "hands on" "jewelry
    support group" "to save my life".dp
