thats pretty cool dude! you just open a hole in the pipe big enough for the reversal and welded it? i need a kiln asap so i can start doing stuff like this..

**Devils Defect** · 02-26-2010, 09:24 PM

pop a hole in the end of the piece you are working on the same size as the hole you popped in the reversal, weld and shape. Thanks for the comments

Hey DD you seem to like the combs. I have been running lots of color combs of lat and have a few tips to shoot your way.

Do them just the same but put a layer of clear over the color before you dot it.

Then blow out paper thin and dot it up, if it rips its a tad to thin.

This will give you tons of depth with your dots.

I have some pics I will post soon as I find my damn memory card

**Devils Defect** · 03-06-2010, 03:28 AM

sweet, dunno if my torch can handle, but i will try it

**jr23** · 03-06-2010, 04:50 AM

What kind of torch you got.

Do it small scale first just line up a small blank and smooth it in.

Then do the clear case, I sleeve mine these days and smoothing it first lets me get it done with no bubbles.

What you end up with is a sandwich of color between clear.

If you had some solid color tube you can just clear case and go.

Any way you will take a small section and heat it tell its hot and rotate for a few tell it gets evened out so you can start puffing it out, I find if I just point it down while I blow it does not let it thin out on the front.

Then pay close attention to your spacing of dots cause as you condense the space inbetween the dots srinks.

I am sure you will love the look. The way you are doing them has its own look I like doing them the way you do on striking colors and then sandblast them.

Im pretty much up to try any technique. Having as many as I can in my arsenal is never a bad thing. So thank you
