Thanks for all of your suggestions. I think I will just go with a hood, and just keep the side baffles short.
I had been considering building an oxy con, but I just couldn't find a cheap source for the zeolite in <1 ton quantities
. If anyone knows of a source for reasonable quantities, I might just go this route. Until then I'll keep browsing Craigslist~
Talonist, I hadn't considered the space for long tubes/rods. I think I'll try the table rather then the corner. I do want to make goblets/vessels at some point, I'm still a long way from skilled enough to do anything bigger than a shot glass!
I watched one of Tim's demos
that is amazing. I don't think I'm coordinated enough to use a system like that without torching myself
.
Thanks,

(sorry if I don't reply quickly, I work nights and sleep most of the day~)
