Thanks for the video. It is well made, articulate and educational, it captures your enthusiasm for the subject and has helped me learn how to cast with cuttlefish. FWIW i don't think you should get ragged for sharing something you obviously enjoyed so much and took the time to learn and document. I think information is neutral, it's what we do with it that has value.

Looks like someone got a whiner on their video.

Cool video, very interesting stuff. Definitely would like to try this out somewhere here in the midwest.

@Xellosr

whiner or winner?

Yeah, It's too bad.

But definitely check it out. It's a blast to learn!

Thanks for the comment.

@donadicarlo

I'll try.

Even though I think you'd have a better chance as a regular.

You should be able to take pictures of your own work.

@kevinflory

by generating interest in taking a class like this.

cool! I want to try this out! What do I need to get?

[kevinflory]

@tubulawesome

get a cuttlebone, some silver, a propane torch and a crucible are the main things.

You'll need a hacksaw and a carving tool too, like a pencil. Oh and some sandpaper and different metal wires.
