What next equipment-wise?

[Miss Muffet]

Hey everyone,

I bought my HH last Saturday (LOVE IT!) from Tuffnell's, you know what the kit includes I'm sure.... so, what do you recommend I buy next? What to you is most important? Apart from switching to bulk that is, lol.

Thanking you kindly.

the first thing i found myself desperately wanting was a graphite marver, but thats cause i dont really get on with the steel one! other than that i think the only other stuff i want now are presses, a thinner pair of tweezers and some snazzier diddys, but theyre not essentials

MORE GLASS, more time, more gas.....

[Miss Muffet]

Graphite marver - yeah, I got a glass rod stuck to my steel one yesterday, lol that was fun... 

Def more glass, especially stringers and frit, and gas.... my can of mapp hasn't lasted long... hehehe 

more please.

go bulk! i never bothered with mapp!
silver foil is my new found love, and you can never have too much frit

Flame Off tickets?  No seriously there's nothing better than seeing other people make things to build your own experience up too!

[Miss Muffet]

At the mo I can't go bulk    We're trying to move so that problem will be solved hopefully soon.... Would love to go to Flame Off but not available

International Festival of Glass in Stourbridge?  August time, it's a must!

as rachel says , seeing others work is such a help,
frit is fun, silver is worth a go...
good luck !
