Clearing roadblocks in the way of firing up a color furnace.
I am consulting with Mike, who melts color at a big public glass studio in Brooklyn in Gowanus, and for another factory in West Virginia. I know I want a dark, ambery brown. We are going to get 100 pounds of Sprucr Pine "color base" - all the raw ingredients for the HotShop glass- minus the decolorants.
We plan on using some of sulfur, black charcoal, and sugar along with a touch of black nickel to darken it up along with a few other things to tint it.
I CNDd a thick scrap of MDF to make a lid for the cement mixer- which Mike mentioned is one of the best ways to mix it up- essential for proper glass. I also cleaned it from refractory cement with hammer, chisel and power washer.
The furnace burner still needs to get its gas/air ratio set with a test firing, and I gotta find a time to rent 2 workstations (it's in the corner between them)

Photography has the ability to teach and transport. This week's highlight proves it.

Glass med mascarpone, sylt och pinjenötter har jag testat flera stycken och tycker om väldigt mycket.
Tyvärr hittar jag nu bara sådan på Lidl och det är inte den godaste.
Har övriga tillverkare som GB och Coop slutat med sina varianter?

The fascinating world of ancient #glass comes to life in this striking #Roman pitcher.
Its handle ends in an appliqué featuring the head of a Bacchant, a devoted follower of Bacchus, the god of wine, making it a fitting and evocative decoration for a vessel designed to pour wine.

History Major. Cripple. Vaguely Left-Wing. In pain and constantly irritable. Sorry to anyone I didn’t DM goodbye. I sorted people very ‘ad hoc’, and my own spotty focus and memory didn’t help. I recognized a lot of users in my time on here, and most of you I enjoyed very much. I think, in particular, I forgot some Slrpnk users. Good luck, going forward. o7

Fascinating world of ancient #glass: This magnificent #Roman #fish-shaped flask was found during the excavation of a storeroom in the ancient city of Begram/Afghanistan.
It was probably made in a workshop at Alexandria/Egypt, dating 1st/2nd century AD. Begram was a major trading city at the Silk Road, the flask was found in one of two storerooms of a merchant, filled with luxury good.

A few words on the loss of Om Malik, who showed up for so many of us with kindness, encouragement, and curiosity. His presence will be deeply missed by our team and the Glass community.
