so many beads and glass rods with every colour you could imagine...(spent far too much on glass) but oh what joy :)
Im a glassaholic, should go to GAA (glass alcoholics anonymous) meetings!
Heres a pic of me using the mini cc torch at the show.
the flame looked very different than my one at home,
was a bit of a shocker when I melted clean through the mandrel
and watched as it plopped off onto the table with my perfectly round bead in toe! arrrgh :0/
its the same torch I have at home so I couldnt understand what happend
then one of the stewards said their torches used bottled oxygen
making them burn much hotter than mine at home on a Oxygen Concentrator unit.
All in all Kathy and I had a wonderful day there.
I learned so much watching the live demos and got to met some talented bead artists too.
Im already looking forward to next years flame off.
