    Nice job on your demo. Thanks for sharing this challenging technique!

    Cool to see this whole process start to finish, now it's experimenting time. Love that both glass and copper can be found for free, that fire stand can be improvised from found materials, cans and such, so one only pays for the gas, and can make really pretty pieces 👍😊

    Thanks for sharing! Any idea what heat temp your torch should be at? I have a personal sized torch that I use for other things and wondering if it would be to hot

    Will the enamel pull off of a larger bowl if I enamel one side? I am looking at doing some hand-hammered 12" bowls of different shapes.
