MWC's Work Thread

[mwc]

Hey guys, been mostly lurking for a long time, and posting some pics of my work is pretty overdue.

I've been on the torch for about a year and a half, for now I've got a RedMax but an upgrade would be nice.

Big thanks to all you guys for the knowledge!

A few pics, most all of this is recent work. Been working on mostly prodo, nothing too exciting, but its cleaning up pretty nice.

Working towards making goblets, they're hard and this is the best I've come up with.

Some marbles- ranging from 1.6" to 2.1". I don't make as many marbles as I'd like to.

Gotta agree with you there man. Great work. Wish my year and a half point looked anywhere near that good.

[mwc]

Thanks a lot guys :) should be torching right now but I'm being a puss, it's over 80 degrees out for the first time in a while, I'm not adjusted yet and just a run to the post office was sweaty and miserable... Think I'm waiting for it to cool down a bit later this evening before I go melt down ISOs

-Matt

[TlkQ]

Your work looks awesome dude! Consistent as fuck!

[mwc]

Finally upgraded from the RedMax on Friday, found a rack and pinion CC with a marver and electric pedal on Craigslist. The torch is in good shape, nice face and no clogged ports, burns good. Serial #5500 somethin

Don't dig the flat marver and hose clamp attachment, so today I ordered a Blast Shield and L-marver, stoked for that.

This is after I polished it up a little

Having a foot pedal is really really nice. I love it. The torch is a good bit hotter, ISO meltdown seemed to go quicker and more controlled.

Glass has been pretty much the same ol, did a kinda cool minitube earlier tonight, I'll post some pics up.

Already got the RedMax sold and shipped, definitely happy with the upgrade :)

[l33t:weasel]

nice dish man, congratulations on the upgrade, i used to have one of those with a 3 digit serial number but it was a POS.

i saw one of your exp-green frit pieces at gravestones the other day, everythings lookin good.

[mwc]

Been a while since I've updated this. Been working a full time job and melting glass on the side so I don't always get as many hours on the torch as I'd like.

Sold the CC and got a Mirage
