Just some test footage. Thrown together in a couple of hours. We still have to make adjustments. Shot using an ACE lens to filter out the sodium flare produced by the flame. This is a demo showing a flame working technique called an implosion. You can view more of Brent Graber's work at brentgraber.com. Like I said, we still have lots of adjustments to make on this video.

Nice video demo..was directed to the site only yesterday by Jill Knapp. As I recall there was no audio at that time. Just curious about the colors used. Were they striking, plain or both?

I used striking colors. The center was blue moon or Turquesa... I forget which... then there was one of the obtaniums for a little sparkle... the petals were Silver Creek with Egyptian White Sands as the backer. The fine frit used to cover the back was Onyx... and I may have done a dip in Irrid frit as well. I hope this helps... Thanks for watching.

Great video! I have tried to make these with some larger, soft glass rods, but they never turned out right. Not sure if it was the soft glass or trying to follow a written discription on how to make them. So, now I will try again! Oh, and I'm not young, but I think the earring is hot!

Hey Debra... I use a Bethlehem Barracuda torch and two Unlimited Oxygen concentrators to power it. I have the older M-20s, but the new M-15s will do the job too. ;)
