Let me first admit that I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing.

Thanks guys! I'm still a newbie, so since I'm still learning a lot of technique, hopefully that will make things a bit easier. I'm also moving to an O2 concentrator rather than tanked oxygen. I...

Thanks guys. Interesting thought, Hayley - I may be working too long. And I'm going to have to pay attention to whether or not I've got the whole bead in the flame. Thanks guys!

Possibly a dumb question, but does anyone do wholesaling? I haven't been able to find one yet. I have a wholesale relationship with Delphi and D&L, but they don't have a ton of variety.

Question Pucker and Lopsided Beads

Ok, I've got a question. Warning, I'm a noob, so if the answer is something obvious, I apologize. I do my absolute best to hold my mandrel straight. I'm probably not in the best working positions,...

If at all possible, I highly recommend one with a digital controller. It's probably less important for beads than for fusing, but believe me, you don't want to have to babysit your kiln!
