Since i have had a studio to blow glass in... and the time has finally come to blow glass again... i need a few things and have the slightest idea where to look because i have been out of the game for so long... i need 1 analog pyrometer, a piece of kevlar cloth about 24inches by 10 inches, and some of those white heat bricks would be nice too... any ideas???

Im so excited to get back on the torch its rediculousssss... :)

I have a Digi pyrometer I got from aim with my kiln, Pretty much a fuji setpoint controller with the buttons removed.

Never been hooked up if you want it its yours for ehhh...30 bucks and shipping.

Check with Phyllis at Glass obsessions in Yorba Linda. Not too far from you and if she doesn't have it, she should know where to get it from.

I got my white bricks at a masonry supply place. They were super cheap.

Its good to be back on the torch... i just got the torch fired up for the first time in awhile... all i had left over in a box of glass from years ago was a few rods of cobalt and a small 2 inch section of tube... So of course i had to melt the hell of of them... two beads and one shot glass later i feel back at home in the new studio... all i need now is a working kiln... Thanks for welcoming comments and i look forward to posting pics and chatting with you all soon...

Once a glass blower always a glass blower....
