Hi, Ross! two years ago when I was new at lampworking, your videos helped me very much and I'm still at it, and I'm learning, but I still learn a lot from your videos! They're great!!
It would really enhance the lesson if you show the completed bead at the start. Then we can see the stages and effects produced. You have a WONDERFUL patient presentation. Very helpful.
you know, there is a special kind of oxygen pump that i use when i make beads at school, Its kinda expensive but it eventually evens out and starts saving money because it gets oxygen from the air.
Ross I love all of your videos! I've watched them all several times! I would love to know: if you twist your twisted stringers with both hands or just one side and how can I make a set of beads all one size?
well... let's see. I have been playing alot with swirls using stringers and raking methods... the swirls seem to com out alright. Whenever i rake i grab to much and distort the bead. Maybe a tutorial on simple ways to play with the surface pattern. Thanks.
yes that is exactly what i was looking for. also i would like to see what the comment sbove mine suggests, about ways to play with surface pattern. also maybe some tutorials on how to do different kinds of encasements. thanks

Excellent great hobby !
Is the cost of gas very expensive and where can you purchase the supplies to get started in the hobby?

It is the Oxygen that gets expensive. The torches run on Propane and pure tanked Oxygen.
For supplies google: Frantz Art Glass, Generations Glass, Colored Sands Glass and ABR Imagery, just to name a few. It is a great hobby.

great bead ross, and excellent video!
Maybe a tutorial on making twisties and using them and/or stringers would be good next.

Something different than the stringer demo in the Tie-Dyed Bead video?

I'd like to see how to apply twisty without getting it all globbed up in some spots and too thin/skinny in other spots :)

Check out the "Tie-Dye Bead" and the "Rave-Up bead Pt1". I make twisted stringers two different ways in those videos. Is that what you have in mind?
