Im a firm beliver in healthy glass blowing and like heather sujested...... everyone needs ventalation. Its no fun to work if work makes you sick.

Heres on yall missed...... study and learn your torch.
Not only the amount of heat its putting out and where the heat is, but the atmosphere of the flame. Learning this will give you control of reactive colors. The only soft glass color i know that "reacts" is ivory, i belive you recuce it to get that ancient, bled out look. In boro there are many colors that react to flame chemestry, and mastery of your torch is needed to get these colors to preform.
