I made a sample tube today after just one day of spinning the jars of solventy phosphor lacquer. Oh goody is this a nice mix!

The pink is really nice- the white I messed up by running air through it too soon- the air blows the goop around like that. I used a puffy ribbon burner flame to burn off the cellulose - the tube goes all black and then goes all white again over the course of about 6 minutes.

I wanna make a bunch and then rent a big long kiln... overnight- the smoke is stinky and not good to breathe.
I made two new colors though! I might add a little more red to the pink to boost it up a little and get a little more powder in there, but I am excited to coat a few colored glass tubes hopefully tomorrow.

These mixes are nice for sucking up a tube- but I want to pour it in straight- then bend it so the inside of the circle is pink and the outside is warm white.
Further tests are necessary!

Spent my Easter eating a delicious Danish Kringle with Ali and then made this doodle.

I am excited, its forbidden in a few ways. One of which is the tube sizes, which are fine tuned for brightness. That big bright white 25mm tube is thin lead glass- and it would take awhile to get it as hot as the 10 mm #blacklight tube, which will be made brighter by being the narrowest, most focused part of the arc.

On a bombarder, that would suck the narrow blacklight in. It is possibly the best combination to be bombarded in terms of glass heat sensitivity- buut I have an oven, so its baking out over night so I can make this the first try guaranteed :).

Hooray for Easter! After Minneapolis, I needed a day to sleep, and I still should send some emails, but I wanted to relax, and I feel recharged, -but there is about to be so much commercial bending.

Yaaay work!
