Going to be doing a collaborative piece with lawnmower man this coming week. Super excited for this. It will be my first true collaboration and I couldn't be doing it with a nicer guy. I'll definitely be sharing pics as the piece progresses

Got a futon with your name on it.

**GhostWorks** · 03-15-2015, 06:00 PM

Word!

Some prep for this collab...

Gonna make some rod for horns or other attachments tonight. Might make some kind of implosion as well. Super stoked but worried I might fuck something up lol...

**paulsafo** · 03-15-2015, 06:01 PM

Part of it. Is that cobalt?

**GhostWorks** · 03-16-2015, 12:42 PM

Yeah I like to use cobalt cause it helps with the blues of the silver

**funksizzle** · 03-16-2015, 01:11 PM

Brother Bear?????Usually the only men I have heard using the word bear were......................

ANywho, I'm just f'ing kidding, but there might be something other than your wallet to be worried about when you crash.

That prep is mega dope.

So whats the process? Looks like cheese grater fume on?

Can you describe how you fume, and trap with the cheese grater?

I've been using a something like nail file, which can leave some pretty cool diamond tread like patterns but don't really got the process down. Althoug I have collected nearly every cheese grater design you can find, I havent used em.

Can you very detailedly elaborate on your process? Myabe pm me ??????? It would be way awesome if you could take 5 minutes to save me 2 years of thread diggin question asking, and experimenting?

Do you have any kind of crystal growth process in effect with it?

**paulsafo** · 03-16-2015, 01:14 PM

Radishes.

**funksizzle** · 03-16-2015, 01:16 PM

I'm just playin bud....Hatin cuz I wasnt invited the party. Therefore I gotta hate.

ANyways, just wondering if I could get some links to good tuts or threads on the subject.

I know there's mention of poor mans dichro and stuff, but........

after you fume, whats your encasement like? Do you put it on fairly cold? What gas ratio do you use when you fume and when you encase?

I've been slightly reducing for fuming, but dont know what to use after that and how to really keep the fume......

I suck at fuming, it is my weakest area...ALthough I have got a few good results, to me its just a luck of the draw thing and I just try to fume ever once in a while.

**oG Glocc Coma** · 03-16-2015, 01:32 PM

Ghost, if you make it from Montana then I must have to drag my ass from NM over there! LOLOLOL

I'm about 75% sure I am going... looking up travel arrangements now!

Jesus Christ. Here funk. https://youtu.be/4ojyTfJsIFM

**funksizzle** · 03-16-2015, 01:39 PM

Jesus Cist. I havent watched revere in a while, cuz then I gotta see hippies smokin herbs on couches in basement like dwellings as close to their natural habitats (mother's basement) as they can get.

Not to say my mom's basement isnt filled with pipes and tubing and shit.....................Just that none of the pipes are being used, or in current manufacture.

I even have upper level status......Something I'm proud of........In fact, all my stuff kinda takes up a areas of the home.

Thanks for the tut. I'm gonna have to experiment with some solid and tube encasement.

I like the disc opening.

**paulsafo** · 03-16-2015, 02:11 PM

Totally fine to ask questions - You might try to stay on track.

**GhostWorks** · 03-16-2015, 02:30 PM

Paul and I are buddies. He can call me whatever he wants. Neither of us are gay but if you have a problem with homosexuality I encourage you to do some hard thinking and probably some soul searching.

I use a bed of pins to indent the cobalt then roll it in a light coating if silver dust then fume gold over it, I go really heavy on the gold in spots. Then a stick it inside my clear, stake the clear to the cobalt and melt it down slowly from the opposite end. You gotta play with it.
