Thanks homie! Appreciate all of your tips. Everyone rep TCsGlassworks. The poor guy hasn't been able to burn much due to injury so he's been teaching me via private message instead. Check out his stuff it's beautiful.

Hey misled youth, I got it on eBay they had quite a few other things I wanted but this took the top of the list. Skull mibs to follow these things are FUN.

But are you talking about burning the cut like a Clint Eastwood movie??

I'd love to talk about the size of my cajones all day, but it sounds like you are some sort of boondock saints badass if you're searing cuts closed.

Seriously you have never done it?

**paulsafo** · 08-17-2014, 10:05 PM

No. I guess I haven't. The smell of burning flesh and boiling blood sounds a little too he man for me. But I hear chicks really dig infected shit. The kind with big boobs. Can't help themselves, they can't.

Thanks for all of the fuming tips guys!! Here is first attempt with gold and silver

Terrible implosion so I tried again with a turtle shell as a request from a friend and it turned out much better.

**paulsafo** · 09-07-2014, 01:28 PM

I'm running sans kiln and let these bench cool one of them cracked with good reason. But the fume turned out color wise. Thanks again for the help

The pendant with the skull in it came out wicked good man

**paulsafo** · 09-07-2014, 06:33 PM

Thanks tc. The angles help. It's a bit lack luster. Couple more practice shots before the real deal eh? 😉

I would like to take this moment to thank misha for the great burn advice.

Place dish soap on the burn and let it dry. Repeat as needed. This will prevent any blistering. She learned it from a welder, I learned it from her and I am now passing it on to you, my children.

Thanks misha!! The second photo was taken a mere 24 hours after the initial burn. (And yes I put it all the way into the center fire)

I am a musician and have a very demanding front man to deal with. Canceling the next day's gig for something like this would have meant getting the axe. Misha, you saved not only my thumb, but also my ass. fist bump.

Really gonna leave that last line completely alone.

As far as the dish soap goes, I've heard of lots of burn remedies over the years, but never that one. Certainly looks like it worked though, so I may try it next time around. (There's always a next time.) Thanks for sharing.
