good advice. i think i'll just take my time and not rush it. i have some other gear i can sell to eventually buy the green sparkle wrap. thanks for the input.

Hi jamie, this is just an idea for you to ponder...i wrapped a 5pc kit with cotton canvas fabric. I ordered 2 yards and had plenty left over. With your sizes, the 2yds would probly be just enuf. My shells were stripped down to wood also. I stained them black b4 i wrapped them. The whole make over cost right around a hundred dollars and turned out realy nice. Just ask the guys here, they all like my tie dye kit. :)

Just give me a hollar if this might be of intrest. You can get the fabric in any color or design.

just wanted to thank everyone again for the input and a special thanks to captain crunch. just got off the phone with jammin sam and i think i'm gonna make the green sparkle wrap happen pretty soon.
