Jim, I just showed your "before" and "after" pictures to my husband. We've been kicking around how and where to set up my lampworking studio, but he's been nervous
about me playing with fire inside our condo. Gee, I can't imagine why!
When I showed him your setup and said that was the sort of thing I was planning, he was SOOOOO relieved and impressed! Not only that, he's actually done a bit of sheet metal work in his long-ago past so he has a pretty good idea of how to do it
.
Thanks for sharing that!
