stick-stack and sleve incase tube pull

this is one of the ways i do color tubing. probably wont do it much like this any more after the N8 method a lot faster. but this one is good for some one who doesnt like a lot of weight.

zig

not...
...bad info bro, but it seems like alot of work for a really small tube, what are you making with it...? keep up the good work either way...zig

The GoAt

thats only one tube
you get two theirs one in the kiln unincased. i get more tube this way than with N8's. but his is much quicker so thats why I said I'll probably not do it that much any more. I really do half dicro half color more now any way. but thats a totaly different tech.

The GoAt

but really
all those picts are only 1 hour of work then 15 minutes to sleve and pull the other tube. like 1 1/2 hours tops for like two bubs worth of tube.
