to make boro murrini? I want to do some that I can do a coral reef implosion. I'd love as many hints as possible.

Do you mean like a Hagstrom piece? He was at ABR last weekend. I wanted to go but they were full by the time I decided I'd spring for it.

Yep! I've done a few to try but I'd like to make my own murinni for them. I'm pretty OK at making them in 104 but not in boro because I still don't have the colors figured out.

Milon Townsend's advanced flameworking book has some murrini stuff in it

Take a 4-5 mm clear boro rod and cover it with a boro color. Then nip the end off square to the rod. Stick the rod onto the maria and burn it off, just like you were putting a big dot on the maria. Implode it. See how that looks, and then use your imagination to get real fancy.
