Default Requesting a Tutorial

Has anyone set up a thread to request tutorials?
There are a couple of techniques I would like to learn and would love pictures and directions.

glassdog--I just went to your website. Wow, you do amazing work. I know this may be off topic for this thread but.... I am an avid breeder/owner/handler of chinese cresteds. Do you take requests for specific breeds? Obviously I am looking for a chinese crested. Also-I am the secretary for 2 dog show clubs and loved your trophies. Can you PM me you prices for those? I would greatly appreciate it. I am always looking for great best in show prizes!

I still need help on implosions. Went into Michael's today and just browsed by the "chinese" beads lol.
They have these floral implosions and they are like perfect! Or there are these lilies that you can see the depth and the length of them. I've tried implosions and do well if using frit but I just can't seem to figure out how to make them any other way and keep them even~
I would soooo love to have another tutorial out there that would teach me a new technique. Not silver glass techie stuff but maybe making umm..let's see dot's that end up being a design by the time you're done. Something that would help me practice stringer control and actually make something other than surface florals, raised dots, melted dots....
Sigh! I really need to take a class or something.

Take a class with John Kobuki and all will be clear... (or cruise the marble room for tips).

Oh yea Shawnette. That would be a dream come true. His stuff is awesome! A class is not possible with me however so the tutorials are the next best thing.
