Eben, I have always admired people who could create things like that with thier hands. Whether it is blown glass, a guy building motorcycles, a really good carpenter etc. I can't do anything like that. I get paid for what I know not what I do and most times it has no tangible result that could be looked at and seen, held or admired. Though I am good at what I "do," I feel jealous of those like you who can do what they do with the hands and the talent God has given you. That vase is quite beautiful your work must be so satisfying to you. Someday when I am old and gray and parked in my wheelchair in front of the tv at the home, I think we will be seeing someone on antiques roadshow going, " do you know what you have here"? It's an original Eben Horton."!  |
Why even try.........

thanks flap 
i tell my clients that i wasnt able to make this stuff right away. It took lots and lots of time and lots of failure to come up with a handful of winning designs..
If you look at all of our top plugbuilders here, they werent that good when they started. practice practice practice is key.. If your ever down in south county RI, i will be happy to let you try it.... imagine 2000 degree honey
Okay, now back to plugs
I dont have any JPI plugs   |
