Well,I've finally given in to those persuasive little voices in my head and upgraded to a Bobcat and oxycon from a hothead.
To say I love it is a massive understatement! It's surreal just how quiet and HOT it is.
The flame is taking a bit of getting used to but I'm getting there and loving every minute of it.
Still can't quite get the hang of silver glass though,but since I bought Anouk Jasperes' "making silver glass sing" tutorial I have actually managed to make my aurae look presentable when encased,but still need lot's more PPP.
Rob.
p.s. while I was personally spending my way out of recession I also got a copy of Passing the flame and it is without doubt the SINGLE MOST USEFUL thing I have bought.It is astonishing just how much info there is in it! I can honestly say to anyone considering getting it that it will be your wisest glass related purchase EVER!!!!
have fun ......
OOO have fun! It's like getting your hearing back isn't it :D Enjoy! ;D
Go melt some glass :D
