Default New Tutorial: Making Armadillo Beads!

First of all, thank you for viewing my third E-tutorial! In this tutorial, I will help you making your own Armadillo beads. I’ve been asked many times how these beads are made, and by request I decided to write this tutorial on it.

It's a step-to-step tutorial with over 200 (!!!) pictures in 51 pages!

I will work with the newest silver glass by Double Helix (which is Clio) and I will also show you how to use Ekho for this design as well!

And not only Armadillo beads, there are 2 extra "mini" tutorials in this E-tutorial as well! First is a tutorial about silver glass twisties. I will share my favorite receipes and show you how I make and pull them. Second, there is a guide for making a "simple" flower murrini.

After receiving payment, it will be send to you by email (PDF file).

Because it's an E-tutorial, I can't refund your money if you're not happy with your purchase, sorry.

Thank you for your interest, I hope you will like this tutorial!

Making Armadillo Beads!

Pat, I had to downsize it (it was originally 15 MB), I tried to keep the quality. How did it print?

Thank you all for the feedback, I very much appreciate it!

I think it printed just fine. I am so impressed at the pure genius of this tutorial, Anouk. That you sat and actually figured this one out . Wow.We could never do this with out the tutorial I'm sure. I made my first one today. It wasn't easy and I thought I was doing it wrong until I looked at it before popping it in the kiln. I could see some armidillos which is all i ask for on the first one.

OK deep breath and here goes!







Please bear in mind this is my first attempt,so be gentle

Made with Aurae.

I started off a bit too big and the bead is massive! it also cracked on the mandrel so I reheated it to heal the crack which is why one side is a bit smudged (that's my excuse anyway ) I also didn't do the final encasing coz the bead was already soooo big already.

Oh Rob, that is great! You can see the pleates very well and what a cool shape!

I'm not sure if everyone can just see topics on this Dutch board, but here's a first attempt from someone on an Armadillo lentil: http://www.glaskraal.nl/forum/showth...6917#post76917

Just bought mine this morning, waiting for it to show up in mail now. Really excited about reading it. I'll have plenty of time to study it as my kiln died Sunday and I have to wait for a part to get here before I can torch again. Wouldn't you just know it.

I thought I couldn't see the armidillo laps but as the bead cooled I could see some. I really screwed up the murrini because the glob was too large for the optic mold. Oops. I think it will take practice before I really know what I'm supposed to be doing. When my release broke at the very end I just slapped some branches and berries and popped it in the kiln.
