I am trying to work on winding long skinny beads, but keep getting monster bubbles that blow out and leave big holes... i just keep melting and adding more glass, but it takes forever, and ends up making the beads thicker than i wanted them. i am sure it is just some bad technique on my part... i've tried winding continuously just moving sideways down the mandrel, i've tried making lots of little spacers right next to each other, i don't know what else to try!
help!
