I see this is a pretty old video, if you havent tried this yet it's definitely worth a try. After you wig wag the colors on the original "heavy rod", heat it into a marble shape with the top 1/2 clear and the bottom 1/2 with the pattern you made. Let cool and heat up just the bottom and flatten it out so its like a disc of pattern with a clear dome on the top. Punty up to the bottom in the middle and use the clear glass as a front lense for a pendant style bead. Looks good,keep up the good work

I liked the alternate pendant shape (not a lentil shape). Your reverse twist is great. Thanks!

Yeah man that is a switch back. A reversal is when you reverse the assess of your piece, like moving your blowpipe to a 90 degree angle. NICE WORK !!!
