Hey now,
I'm new to Whatcom county area. and to posting on the forum.
Been Lampworking for 7 years. I've been lucky to not only see some of my hero's in action, but to have also got to learn from some at great places. Like EGS, U of O Arts and Craft Center, Momka's.....

Trying to see who's out here and if anyone has anytime or space in a shop.? (would love to hang out and sweep the floor or something)
Have torch will travel.
I've been told if ya don't use it ya lose it. Also that this not like riding a bike.

I have a space in a garage i'm trying to put together. It's going to take min to get set up. All ready getting great ideas from the forum especially on Ventilation.
Thanks to all for your info on that one.
I've seen some really poor vent set ups (mine included ) nice to see vents on here with hard work and thought put into them.

I've been to "The Gathering Spot" ( the work there is off the chain)
Big Props to Jake-C and all at Nebula.
"The bus came by and i got on.........More like the Mother ship has landed"

Thanks to The Melting Pot forum lots of great work and info on here .
And to all who participate here as well great work, and great support, keeps it all moving.....
Summer's here and the time is right.......enjoy it yall
all the best
