Suggest you stow the attitude, "Man".  A little tip:  There are many
of us who will not respond to someone who doesn't sign his real
name.  I figure that if you don't identify yourself, you're just
here to cherry pick information and won't contribute to the
community.  Can the handle, stow the attitude, ask your questions
and you'll get some cooperation.

to learn about glass blowing, go to amazon.com and search for books
about "glass blowing".  There are several.  Second, go to
http://www.glassnotes.com/ and buy Harry's book, "Glass Notes".
