wow fdd.

i havent been on riu for a sec and you have come quite some ways.

very good job learning that fast, and your setup is way legit now, i rememeber the first ones were made on a blowtorch used for weilding.

my girl really wants to get into glasswork, im going to show her this as some motivation, looks like a lot of stuff I see in the smoke shops for sale, keep it up, it will pay off in the long run if you have the passion,

check out TC for some inspriation, big thumbs up!!

check into soft glass bead making, .......................... http://www.mountainrobbins.com/loose_beads.shtml

i am assuming those are soft glass. it's more "fluid" then boro and melts at a lower temp so a smaller torch is used. :bigjoint:

you should grab one up.




i need some hemp cord. i asked my wife to learn macrame', she laughed. people really wear that stuff. :bigjoint:
I've done macrame since I was a kid. I used to make some necklaces with an ex-girlfreind, but when we tried to sell them everyplace we tried already had mass produced ones from China:finger: and didn't want ours.:peace:

Michael's has hemp cord and books on macrame. It's not gay. Do it yourself. Just pretend you're in the Navy. I'd love a mushroom pipe if you ever get in the mood to make one. kiss-ass
