Default Gift for vascular surgeon

I was playing with some ideas today and came up with something I thought was kinda cool. I showed it to my wife and she said I had just came up with a paper weight that would go good in the office of a vascular surgeon. Oh well, I was hoping for something a bit more romantic and artistic.

I'd call it a tube coral implosion. But with a color change!!! It does kinda look like bloodless arteries ...

Great job with the positioning and shape though.

Please don't be intimidated. I love seeing all the cool stuff.

Glassdog are those preformed bowls. The reason I ask is I bought some preformed bowls and feet and I want to make my own stems and i dont know the assembly process I was wondering if I have to pre heat the bowls and feet.

Yes deb they are but the feet are not. the feet are made of woven glass. In an attempt to keep cost down on them I used the pre-made tops. They are easy to use. The first part I made was the stem, then the foot, then put the top on. I kept all the pieces hot in my oven until I used them. Give it a try, they're fun.
