I use a sterno and found it to be hotter probably because the flame is higher. Different parts of the flame either melt more quickly or slower, more control I think. It is as you say so totally meditative that I almost fell asleep my head dropping and just missing the flame. I must be more careful and not bend stringer at 2 am. Thanks for the video, I really enjoyed it.
I was struck by the number of times you emphasized practice and failure as components of success. (not in so many words, but in the demeanor of the video) Thank you for this lesson….it is one I have needed.
While I very much appreciated your video and understood that you wanted to use the clear stringer you purchased in bulk, an opaque or darker transparent color would have been so much easier to see during the demonstration. If you were making the video for yourself, it's not a big deal, obviously. However, for teaching purposes, a color would be better and very much appreciated by your viewers, especially those of us with older eyes! Thank you for your clear instructions on how to make the shapes. Just wish I could have seen what you were doing better.
I’ve always been envious of how you bend stringers. Thank you for sharing your talent. I’m still envious! Lol
Practice practice practice!
Hey girl that is some seriously good technique! Thank you for sharing
Really great video and techniques thank you for sharing your expertise ❤
I’m thinking a Monet starry nite is coming soon😊. This was very cool to watch…thanks
I’d love to hear about the kiln and see you use it
This was extremely helpful. Appreciate your videos.
😊😊😊

Admirable attention to detail🌼
If you set them individually in the kiln, what temperature do you use?
Thanks! I wouldn’t fire these individually, they would be too fragile. I will eventually use these in another project.
Thanks for yet another great video. Can you tell me what mm of stringers you use? thanks!
1mm

Of course! That’s all part of learning a new skill.
I would like to see you use kiln too and let us know fusing temps you used etc. great Demo’s❤
How do you clean the soot from the stringer?
It will burn off in the kiln, but you can also use some windex and a cloth to clean it.
By the way…how high above the flame are you holding the stringer please?
Right in the flame!
@@EquinoxGlass perfect….ThangQ😊
Use a 2nd pair of tweezers when it gets too short to hold onto. Thanks.
Are these 1 or 2 mm?
1
Try an alcohol burner (Bunsen Burner)

We haven’t seen you in a while. Just letting you know you are missed.
They could be roses too.
a dark color stringer would be better for demo purposes. Could see technique better.
As I mentioned I have a ton of clear stringers that I wanted to start using, so I figured I would share what I was working on!
Can’t see u need a dark background
Спиртова горілка, робитиме це без кіптяви.
Just really want you to know I really miss FGF.
Hi Susan! Been busy with commission work and vacation.
@@EquinoxGlass missed you as well!
