Wow, Chad....that's a ton of beads! I like the storage....
Patrice, niiiiccceee. I like the hummingbird best!
Toni, those bone are great. Hope you do well with them at your show.
Eric, love the pendant!!
In case anyone is wondering, those teeny balls I teased Bec about are the miniscule glass beads that I shared with her to use with electroforming....open up the top and those suckers fly everywhere, and I mean everywhere

I'm loving all the boro. here's another rose: the petals are cinnabar and carribean coral and the backing is sunset orange, the next one is a combo of silver fume, magic mirror and light cobalt and the last one is a spiral of tequila sunrise, dichroic and almond nugget

Hannah, very pretty. And thanks everyone.

Hey, I'm stoked... I couldn't wait for my marble mold to come in the mail so I just said the hell with it and made one anyways. So.... *drumroll please*....
Here is my very first marble I've ever made....... with no mold.
Yeah me!

You'll get to know me and realize that when I get my mind stuck on something, I'm not satisfied until I do it... lol.

Maybe with the pinks and peaches I do need to develop more in the kiln???

Thanks Sandy, I just love working with fuming!
Here's a few more things I've done over the last couple days.
The first pendant was a custom order, but I never heard back from the lady that I made it for, arghhh! Sometimes think I just shouldn't do the custom order thing. The last one is a ring, I usually worry about making rings, because they might break, but these kind are pretty tough.
Great job everyone, keep it coming!

Jo, very nice!!!
Ashlea, love the ring, the pendants are nice too.

I made this last night for an exchange, but I have picked it up and enjoyed looking at it too much today. (I should never have taken it to work) I have to keep it for myself. Deep encased gunmounts, mint and crayon orange. It stands just over 2 1/2 inches and the stalk of the mushroom is about the size of a quarter. Started with a 6 mill. rod.

Hi Eric,

I have a lynx and regalia - I haven't tried the lynx with tanked oxy, so I can't say how it compares. It sure has plenty of heat with the regalia...not sure what you are used to -- but 'tis much, much better than what I had - midrange and 5LPM!
