Looks like your doing well for just 30 hours. Keep it up.
that's what I was thinking
Thanks i am having a heck of a time making bail/loops for stuff. and have not tried much hollow form. i am trying to make some ornaments this week. we will see how that goes lol.
For bails what I learned to do that's really easy and looks good is attach and leave like a 1/3 inch piece of rod to your piece heat it and let gravity form it into a ball and use mashers or your marver and something flat to smash it quickly into a flat tab. Heat it and bend it back on its self.
