Barbara Becker Simon Hollow Flameworked Beads Webinar DVD Movie

 

Hollow beads are distinctive in shape, lightweight and part of every skilled lampworker's repertoire.  Though tricky to master, in this Webinar Barbara will approach this process in gradual steps so the technique can be more easily learned and several options for making and altering hollows will be demonstrated, including making a fine silver core with metal clay.

Techniques covered include:

• proper application of glass to the mandrel
• how to keep the walls consistent in thickness 
• judging the heat necessary to maintain the form and not melt it
• how to prevent collapse and what to do if it happens
• shaping, altering form, decoration and how to apply glass to a silver core.

 And as a bonus Barbara demonstrates a Puffy Mandrel Project!

This DVD will play on most DVD players.
