Default Holy crap! I've been bad... very very BAD!

I must confess. I'm a very bad boro boy. I've been playing with soft glass. 2 days in a row. I feel a little dirty. I may fire up the kiln to 960 again today. I may need to be punished.

I'll show some soon. It's sculptural and electroformed. I'm pretty happy with it. Not exactly what I'm after, but getting there.

I don't know why I don't use soft glass more...

I don't even have to adjust the kiln! The front few inches of my AIM front-loader is always about 90 degrees less than the back - just right to anneal soft glass. It's uncanny.

See the beer... yeah, they go hand in hand. I wonder if I'll ever drink and not smoke? I hope so... but not likely.

Pipyr... glass is glass. I like soft glass, because it's harder for me to work. It's a challenge to do scuplture with soup. Oh and don't even get me started on keeping it warm enough. I had wings popping off left and right.

It's always Monday or Tuesday of next week. I guess next week never comes. Whenever we file, we've got 30 days til the judge will sign it... on THAT day, I'm quitting for good. I'm throwing out my bad habbit with the molten glob of wedding ring. Hopefully it sticks this time. I really don't like smoking. It's not something I'm proud of and my kids don't like it either. Bleh!
