Wow, you did all that on a Minor with only one oxycon? Doesn't it take ages to melt the boro that way?

Next time I go shopping for glass I will have to order some boro and try it myself

The seahorse is really pretty!

No Noora they are with the new second oxycon, the first small 1/2" bead was all I could manage with one oxycon..... and over and hour!!!

Okay, good

I was worried I (or rather DH) wouldn't have to get us a second oxycon

(I want a spare, the one I have is antique and may keel over any day.)

Thanks, just need to try again to see if it was beginners luck!!

The boro bug has bit hard then Bob!

Not that anyone who witnessed the steely determination displayed on the play bench at Flame Off would be at all surprised

You could say that
