Boro

[J-Jo]

Hi everyone. I have been torching off and on for a while now and have recently started looking into classes. I have found a class offered that is the frit pendants but they use boro glass. My question is I have a HH torch will I be able to use boro on my hh? If not would it be the same technique to make the pendant in soft glass? Thanks so much.

A hothead is not going to work well for boro. Some techniques are similar or adaptable between soft glass and boro, but you'd probably be better off taking a soft glass class unless you're thinking of getting an oxy/propane torch.

its all glass.. so yes the technique would be the same in soft glass, but a HH is not hot enough for boro
