the biggest struggle for me is to find my own style... the pinwheels may be a remotly original variation (im sure its been done before but i havent seen it) so lets see here i bit... Banjo, Shad, Fro, Bearclaw, and Smilley. (theres not much you guys havent done)
i spent about 16 hours or so on this one. it came in pretty big at 22 sections, 1 1/2 pounds, and 10" x 6". mostly cobalt, and disco. the pinwheels are forrest and acid. the tube pull was what was left from my last 2 posts. this was made over 2 days, and the disco never gave me any problems, it never cracked once. im also forever amazed at what a 10mm handle can hold! ...anyway, thanks for checking it out... p.s. disco photos like crap

Disco Stratisphere: Pimp shit man, I'm diggin it for sure. Just wondering if you encase all your disco? Been meaning to get some and give it a try.

less thermal shock if you do James Shelton: isn't necessary to encase unless you're looking for smooth surface work. Otherwise it is chill I/O just pre4heat the rods or they will pop on you. (thermal shock) **james**
