help finding didyium glasses for my son

Zack is ready to learn lampwork. He's 12, so I wonder if anyone can point me in the right vendor direction, or if you are a smallish person who wants to sell.

Thanks!

LOL Zinci, you'd need some help hauling it out! It took three people to get that heavy thing in the van, and we lost a little bit of van plastic when we finally crammed it in!

Question about CiM Sepia -- bubbles

I'm a newbie, and I need a little help. Every time I work with CiM Sepia, it bubbles. Every single time. Does it just do this, or is there something I should be doing differently?
