PROPANE

Whether you use MAPPTM gas, propane, or natural gas, you are dealing with highly flammable and potentially explosive substances. Proper handling of your fuel gas is therefore absolutely essential. Fuel gas tanks should be transported in a vertical position (valve up) and be secured. If possible, keep the tank out of the passenger compartment of your vehicle during transportation

http://movinginsider.com/2012/06/22/propaneprices/ An interesting article on how propane exchange is robbing you.

Forums are important exchange of information. It allows us to interface with one another and discuss techniques over a long period of time. It sets up a library of sorts with all the published information available to date that people have shared. It also lets us to share our trial and errors and quickens the overall mastery of the medium exponentially. It also creates trends driven by consumers. Ex. 10mm Glass on Glass joints and oil rigs.

My handle is bowlpusher on the Melting Pot and Urban Pheasant on Tokecity. Check them out. It is inspiring and humbling to see everything that is being made out there as well as the vast history of glass itself.

It is also pretty awesome to meet people online and connect with them in person later on in life. There are several people that I know via the forums that I have never met and maybe never will. It has opened up so many doors, literally. The glass community is pretty open to artists who are genuine in nature and want to contribute and collaborate. It is a very good time in history to be a lamp worker.

Tradeshows

Tradeshows are a whole other animal. I highly suggest attending a trade show in Madison or Vegas and see the spectacle that this industry has become. It is pretty amazing. It is also pretty cool to meet many of the glass blowers that you see online. My favorite person to see at a show is Bob Snodgrass. He is the godfather.

We have also traveled to a few of the other glass projects and those are a blast too. Meeting people when there is no sense of competition and high vibes for charity is probably the best situation possible to learn and meet new people.
