Default Beginners and Basics Tutorial 56 pages

Hi! I have been off of my torch lately due to M.S. issues but I really wanted to keep doing something, anything to do with glass. I opted to write a pdf booklet which describes the basics. I made step by step charts with pictures.
The tutorial discusses: Safety,types of glass, c.o.e., Making pea-sized gathers, making larger gathers, tools, saving money, the flame and its areas of use, types of flame, making a footprint, pulling stringers and twisties, applying stringers and twisties, applying dots, stacking dots, making a star bead, and a harlequin bead (to show how white migrates). It's all about basics, I showed different ways to pull stringers and twisties (punty method and tweezer method). I showed different techniques for making a round bead.
It can be found at

Thanks for checking it out! Angela
