a few more details..... seth uses a mirage and the 60x9 pushes it. It works just fine but not at the most efficient pace.

We coil color around 60x9 on the lathe. all we have on the lathe right...

i like sticking a reamer through the chuck into the piece. nice.

5 dollar shipping?!

some people will disagree with me but i ONLY place orders over the phone. There are many reasons for a delay. some of them good, some bad.

Good reason:
You might have ordered something online...

sounds like it will be at victory.

did you sell an f lathe and then buy another one? nice.

look into amtrak. the train runs through madison ( i think). It's cheaper to carpool but if you have to drive solo then it might cost about the same. You can drink on the train though. added...

our shop might be interested as well.

nice tag. dork.

i really thought you were bored with the cards. busted into the last pallet eh?

the coldest temp i ever blew glass in minnesota was negative 20something. in a shed with moderate ventilation and one propane heater. also a 30 pack of PBR.

not knowing anything about kiln design I would have to say that it is probably the fault of nick voorhees.

you may be able to drink me under the table, but not the glassblowing table.

I heard you left CO because you caught all of the fish.

Don't try shit that's clearly beyond repair but other than that, if someone has some money you should take it.

why does it need to be cut? flame

i knew a thread of someone asking for technical advice would be entertaining.

yea, the clear is the majority of the weight in this step. I'd say the larger mass usually receives the focus of attention. (you add something small to something larger, not the other way around)

sounds like you need to go see it done in person. it would be very difficult to explain the exact heat gradiants that you're asking about in writing. Time for a weekend in colorado. A round trip...

i wonder if there is any nile in there.

the only reason to sell a kiln that's "too big" is because the electricity it uses is prohibitive to your work. I doubt that kiln uses enough to be hurting your bottom line.

so far the glass from 98 is sweet for fume.

wish i could make it. could you tell brad that I'd buy some chunks of tube and rod if there's any leftover? or if you want to grab some for me skye that would be sweet. i'm good for 100-200 bucks....

why are you selling them?

50 pieces times $15 is only 750 dollars. I personally try to never show less than 2000. I usually show between 4000 and 6000. My shopmate usually shows between 7000 and 10,000 but sometimes as low...
