I got some ap odds that was some of the best ap I ever worked. It is one of my favorite purples when worked with the perfect strike. Crip do you use hvy wall on your iso. Looks good , I just started using some 50 med for prodo it works nice and fast. Just asking cause with your new maya it seems wide and they say its cooler than other torches of its size. I get to work on a delta on occasion and the melt in on the med wall fully loaded is less than 2 min complete ready to shape. I know know why some rock out iso as there only prodo. I spend more time surface working my stuff thats in a lower pricd point. Good work and I wish I had cash I would buy you out of your maya to have a wide torch for big thin stuff. Have a liitle fun with that monster before you sell it.

very nice man.
love the AP lines n shit
is the sidecar a bubbler or a dry guy?

**CripSkillz** · 01-24-2009, 11:23 AM

its dry ,,

and ya Jr i use 48 3.7 and 50 x 2.5 for my isos , he e and ya the new torch is the shit..

it melts them cups down fast i can close a flair now in just over a min and melt the whole damn thing down in a few more..

it is big and hot, just getting used to it, kinda hot for me cuz i rest my arms on bench, and my face is within a foot of flame all the time , but i got some kevlar sleeves and gloves for when im ragin and it helped alot ..\

im not sellin it, just seein if there was trade interest, cuz i do eventually want a nice phantom or mirage.. some day.. i dont think i need such a huge flame but i may change my mind after more work on it, cuz its gettin better and better each time..

i got bluemoon too and ap seconds, i heard seconds wernt so bad on strikin colors sence they always come out a lil dif any way, f it ill use it.. I kinda like the big fat rods too there sick..

**jr23** · 01-24-2009, 11:29 AM

fat rods are great for all the blow ins and outs. I rock a lot of odds and just a few seconds my rule of thumb is buy odds in bulk so you get so many types if one is bad it does not hurt. Seconds always have to be used bye someone or I try a little and then buy a load. But after working some 1st cads I will only buy first in my cad colors for sure. AND solid horns with the fats!

**CripSkillz** · 01-24-2009, 11:37 AM

nice didnt even think of that fat horns sweet ,,,

Rye thx on the gold did come out much better, teh silver was jstu to much its deep but way to thick, thats my prob when i close down a 50 x2.5 that doesnt look to fumed, when it gets that small its a lot of fume..

yo crip

if you work on a lil smaller diameter you can heat up a section of tube and then fume into the end without flaring and then do a reducting flame that has just enough oxy to not leave black residue and shoot it up there

it gives good fume pretty much every time and its way faster

you just flip it around and repeat on the other side and you got sickie color changing

and also

on fumey two piecers that arent sectioned i like to do one big ass insideout tube and then split that to make it
it makes the two parts match more with the fume which can be hard to replicate yadig

**CripSkillz** · 01-24-2009, 12:27 PM

i dont even flair my tube out any more, its just the right size just punty up n pop a hole and spin it flares its self..

and ya i hear ya on the matching,. but i couldn't get enuf stuff in 1 to make two , ,i like em thick n full of shit hehe

Wow! That's a bad ass technique. Thanks a lot man. Reps your way.

And crip, your stuff is getting sick man. Keep up the good work.

**beachglass** · 01-24-2009, 08:47 PM

sweet man, i like the way the fume looks in the stem. maybe a bit silver heavy but theres some sweet pink and blue tones on the clear lines. its gonna look killer coloured up a bit

i like that amber purple disc thing too, nice touch
