White boro tube?
Does that exsist? I want to make all white sculptures but can't find white tube. Is there such a thing or do you have to make it or something?
Thanks, Kitty |
Look in the Asian or China glass section. ABR has it on sale right now, Glasscraft has it...lots of places.

you can buy white tubing. It's generally more expensive than the transparents. Here is the Glasscraft links to a couple sizes and different types of white:

We have 12 x2 in the Jade white and 25 x 4. In the tubing
at Trev's Glass. PM me if we can help.. I was just putting a bundle of the 12 x 2 on ebay |
a couple things you may want to know before you order Asian white.
Asian Jade white and Asian white are not the same thing. Jade white looks like a watered down white. like they mixed regular white with clear before they pulled it. i never tried it so that all i can say about it Asian white is a dense solid white that can be shocky in tubing so it helps to warm it in the kiln before working it and garage or anneal as so as done working it. Things that i would bench cool with other color or clear without a problem break with the Asian white. and from what i read there are sometime bad batches what are sometimes worse or have compatibility issues. that the down side to Asian made tubing. |
Jade wide is the preferred white with the blowers here. Lots of good reports on what we carry with return cusomers

Thank you! I don't need it right at the moment but will probably be ordering some in a month or so.

Saw some shorts on eBay yesterday.

If you don't want or like to use Asian glass, Northstar keeps us pretty well stocked with Star White Tubing also.
