Default Looking for a teacher in Ohio

I am so frustrated!!!! Trying to blow ornaments (on a torch) with frit on them and I'm having way to much trouble. Is there anyone in the state of Ohio who is for hire?

I'm not in Ohio, but I can be if you want to make it happen...

I'm working on a tutorial for it, but not sure when it will be ready.

I *think* that Neusole glassworks may offer lessons like this. They have a studio down by UC in Clifton.

I'm planning on checking with them in the next few weeks because I'm trying to figure out the same thing

Thanks, I'll contact both places. I did contact the Works in Newark, Ohio and they weren't interested in private classes.

Thank you! I have contacted the suggested studios with no luck. This looks promising!

There is not a lot of glass classes offered around here unless you do the basic ones at glass axis. When I tell people that I make glass beads with a torch they look at me strange and don't understand. I have basically taught everything to myself and have never went to a class.
