Maybe you should buy the book "Making glass beads" by Cindy Jenkins. This gives you the answer to all your questions. It was a great help for me to start with! Let me see the result of your work.
that has to be like 90 C.O.E.-E or 95. If thats the red torch from a hobby store it and bonds glass that quick............ nice work from one maker to another, but i work with 30-60 COE oxy/pro set-up. i would melt that right off. maybe back when i was using M.A.P.P.
o ok i bought a $10 torch head that attaches to my propane. will this work? or will it take a really long time?
will it work with soft and hard glass?
