new kiln, nice :)
Re: steaks thread - newbie progression
thanks man, the second slide came out soo nice it is purple luster frit i think inside 44X4 condensed down, but when i was adding the little horn i heard tink tink tink thinking it was something on my bench ..then i saw the crack and chased it then the shape was distorted and i started putting dots on it, without them it looked much nicer, i think i forgot to flash the piece in the flame sometime so it cooled and cracked
kind regards frank

Re: steaks thread - newbie progression
its freezing cold here and i also got a little ill so i build myself a small sandblasting cabinet, here is the first stuff wich is presentable(but not comparable to the photoresist stuff or the deep blasting i just matted the surface, i ordered some vinyl stickers with my tag so i can blast it on slides and other pieces
i hope you like it
18,8 pushbowl cobalt with frit on the outside, looks like granite sandblasted, kinda cool

Brotha, it looks tight. I love the second slide the color is awesome,looks like a lightning storm mirrored over turquoise Bahamas waters. Nice progression. gives me something to look forward to. there is a lot of inspiration here.
Re: steaks thread - newbie progression
damnnnnnnn. you are doing that new torch some justice for sure. most of your slide designs would make nice marbles if condensed,lensed and maybe twisted and pulled from the back with a warm punty.
just saying, i'm sure you know that, cheers

Re: steaks thread - newbie progression
Slits you can do with a dremel and a diamond cutting blade or a tile saw. There is a thread around here somewhere on multi-hole tubing but I can't recall where..
And I LOVE your slides. Always always look great
Re: steaks thread - newbie progression
you can pop 3 or four holes by plugging the first hole you pop with a reamer, i condense the bottom of the downstem to a nice small hole first then pop holes usually 4 or 5
Re: steaks thread - newbie progression
cool i even have a dremel with a diamond blade, but i will also try the po method, i thought about nearly popping them and the opening them up one after another
oh and thak you very much
kind regards frank
