got a new camera, records awesome videos..although it might be hard to tell on your end, with the dydimium filter, youtube compression, and BRIGHTNESS glare on the camera. got 4 vids, 2 of them are newer, the one assembling the reversals and teh donut one, the other two are a day or so older and i was still playin with settings and stuff, but they are still decent. one is a retticello, the other is a simple demo on how i do my wigs..two switches in one heat..called benderbacks (by eugene rain)..hard to explain how they are done.
thanks for looking, i wouldnt consider these educational, theres music and they are about double speed.

@ El Hefe : Sick work man, nice videos, good music, and overall a pretty nice image quality. It's cool finally seeing some of this art being made and seen.


@ Glassman : Yeah i think his torch is a herbie 50mm?? Dont quote me on that thought.

Thanks for posting the videos hef I am another one about to take the plunge into glassblowing. When I was first getting into this scene it was 2002 in seattle and by chance my friend grew with a couple of the premier PNW glassblowers who post their stuff all the time here. I have as much drive as anyone could and if it takes 5 years to be making headdy collectible pieces then that's what it takes. Seems like the endless creative possibilities would be good for my OCD too.
