I just got some AWESOME green by fuming golder over very slightly reduced (not noticeably so) black lightning, then encased in clear. I'll post pics when the marble is out of the kiln!

Have you tried Parramore white? It's not as dense as others, but it's much more boil resistant in my experience. Also Asian white is amazing, a completely different beast to all the American whites...

Does anyone wear prescription contact lenses while torching? Is it alright to do so? I seem to remember reading somewhere that it wasn't advisable... I'll probably double check with an optometrist...

Oxygen boosters

I'm looking at perhaps getting an oxy booster to fill a pressurized storage tank with my 10lpm oxycon, so I'm able to run a large torch (Kobuki, which apparently takes about 40lpm/40psi)... The two...
