Can anyone tell me the name of the tec or how to do the bowls design? To me it looks like ISO but i cant tell how the lines would be laid...thanks in advance

Props to Sherman on this one, its amazing. Def check the other pics out.

looks like a tight imploded retti to me.

To me it looks like he is spiraling a lattacino cane on the inner surface of that bowl, almost like a coil pot. If you look at the other shots, the design follows itself down the whole slider, except for the reversal section.

Don't know a name for it. Try figuring out a few ways to do it yourself, see if any of them turn out. It's how you'll discover new techniques.

[p.j.]

it is an old school technique, even before iso...i feel old

[Campy]

Ive always been curious about this tech too. I even have a 14mm bowl with that same tech lol

Some explain this please

Coiled cane. Just like Icarus said.

Twist two or more colors into a cane, coil that into a tube section.

Coilpotted latty. Old school. I have done this and then fumed the inside and added dots for cool effects. I have seen it over fume on clear tubing as well.

[hashmasta-kut]

ok i can see it now. my sister likes to use that occasionally too.

coilpot latti on a blowtube and then encase? or coil latti around the inside walls of a flared tube and condense?

ive been blowing through alot of glass trying new things, so i gotta kinda hold off a bit.

[Icarus]

Why don't you jsut email the artist if you want to know the tech? Otherwise, you're on your way, figure out the rest yourself for the win.

[chayes]

flare a tube and coil the cane around the inside of the tube. It's that easy:yay

[FredLight]

Chris, I'm sure you can do it and make it look easy and I would hate to follow you in a game of HORSE, in glass.

Coiling in a flare is more difficult in general and will trap bubbles in some cases.

Coiling on a blowtube and sleeving after is easier to get clean results.

I've tried both ways in the past month, and I have to say even coiling on a bubble then flipping that is easier for me than coiling in a flare.

That section is just coilpotted cane.

Easier for me that way too.

[OracleGlassArts]

def easier to sleeve it i think, just wondering if the condensing gave it that extra 3d effect....now that i think about it tho, the clear in the latti takes care of that no matter what.

its pretty amazing how simple some of the coolest effects in glass are achieved, ive got less than a year torchin, and im not very good at backwards engineering glass unfortunatly

[Kato]

yup coilpot latti, pretty easy tech to do. the hardest part would be to make the latti clean.

[loydb]

Maybe coil it on thin-wall tube, then tube implode it, to get depth?

[FredLight]

Coiling it over clear tube washes it out too much.

Straight coil off a flared tube.

A cool variation on this is to encase a rod of Green Exotic or Blue Moon in a 9.5 tube, then coil up that. Rip them in half for sweet bow-ties.

[kage]

i stripe a 2 inch section of 20mil rod and twist it as i coil it into a tube. no need to encase or do inside really.

Thanks for the tip for the Exotic. I can now use mine.
