The HH works GREAT with this glass.
Hi Patty!

Thanks for your input...I've done the "foil" thing, too - but I find that with the glove, there is so little fiddling and since the glove covers the holes so superbly, theres absolutely NO oxy and no variables! Maybe I just didn't have my foil collar quite right, but it seemed that it worked pretty well MOST of the time - the glove works every time, consistently, without doubt!

They aren't very expensive - if you decide you want to try it, I'd love to hear your assessment/comparative of the two!
