Thanks, just embarrassed here. I meant it to be funny.
No need to be embarassed. We're all just a big, dorky internet group of friends, after all.
8-oOh but you are funnylooking!
maybe you should be embarassed with her around.
Yep, it's embarrassing having a "bug" as a friend. Don't we eat bugs???
Not the cute ones, and certainly not ones with names!
Those bottles are very nice looking and my eliquid would be proud to be contained in one. Nice work.
Nice work.
Since I can make jewelry with a small flame it's not too hot, so I was just out making some to get this order finished finally. This gallery has been so patient with me. It's fantastic.
Anyway. I did the prepwork for another bottle. It will have a very dark ruby and a little lighter ruby (maybe, still not sure on this), but still dark and a silvery grey stringer and a glow cane. And it's going to be backed with a reactive color called Blue Moon. It's the color I used for the honeycombs. But it'll be totally different since I'm using it as frit (crushed glass) as aposed to tube. This'll be a neat one, for sure.

Wow, beautiful work and that glow in the dark glass is amazing. I never even knew such a thing existed.
I'm tired, guys. I'll make the next bottle tomorrow.
You have done great today. Go get ya a Coke and sit back and have a nice vape!
My son found an old store today that had the ice cold Cokes in the glass bottles sitting in a washtub of icy water. He bought some and brought them home. They are so good!

YEA! What he ^ said!
A good friend of mine, Joe Imler is behind this new glow glass. There's yellow and aqua glow available to the masses, but I actually have the glow dust that you mix with the glass. The dust isn't a glass, it's more like an enamel powder. You need to use a rispirator while working with it. But the point is that I have way more than just yellow and aqua. That's all I have in glass form, but I have the powder for red, purple, pink, fuscia and green. It's pretty cool stuff but kinda a pain to use.
Oh, I love coke in a glass bottle. Here in Houston, Tx. the glass bottle cokes are the imported ones from Mexico with real sugar instead of HFCS. I also like Pepsi Throwback (real sugar-same price as regular Pepsi).
Oh, and I have another bottle in the kiln. What's the best way to go about selecting who it goes to.

finding his post would be too easy for those that know the controls, those that dont would be sol.
I vote for giving it in the pif thread --- my 2c

I'll definitely give it up in the PiF thread.
I just woke up and put water on the stove for coffee; I use a french press.
I went to grab the bottle out of the kiln and unfortunately, while I was welding the fitting to the bottle the male fitting got to hot and welded to the female fitting on the bottle. When I was trying to remove the male the female broke.
That's cool though I can just trim the old fitting off and slap a new one on there. But I'm outta 14mm fittings. I'll have to use the bigger 18mm ones.
I'll redo the fitting and throw it up in the PiF thread.

That is beautiful! I love seeing your work! And someone that loves coffee as much as I do. I'm not allowed to have more than one cup a day right now though and it is killing me! I used to drink at least a pot a day all by my little self. I love the way coffee smells and tastes, no sugar, no creamer unless it's an after dinner cup.
i Really love this second one. Put me at the bottom of the list..but i definately want one of these at some point. If you don't do just the pif thread....maybe we can trade things for them ? Just let us know what you might need....if thats an option.
Really beautiful work.
Really beautiful work.
actually that's kinda what I'm thinking. I'll post something i'm looking for and whoever comes up with it gets the bottle. Now I just gotta fix it and figure out what I want to trade.
And Jules, I'm a coffee fiend. I love coffee, drink it pretty much all day. Just a bit of cream and a teaspoon of sugar, usually. If I have a bottle of Bailey's I put that in my coffee.
I just found a lone 14mm female fitting in the shop. I'll have this fixed by days end.

The stoper's nice, anyway.
That's all one color; Mystery Aventurine. The creamy colors are brought out with a more propan-y flame and the purples and greens are brought out with an oxygen flame. And look at the sparkle in there. That's the aventurine.
