Awesome, the great thing about other neon glass artists is that they always have new ideas and glass working creativity that you don't...very inspiring...
In neon making you can use chalk, a wax penicl, charcoal. Its just glass. The heat burns it away usually. It is a special paper that is made of nylon I belive. It escapes me but you could use any paper as long as you have a wire mesh over it. that is how some people do it to.
@@Cristheneonartist the original bending material was asbestos paper, then it was fiberglass with a silicon coating. Both of these are expensive and you have to transfer the pattern. The mesh over paper is a quicker way to get bending.

What was that measuring move you did just before 15:21. ? Before using the blow tube. What were those two marks. Particularly the second?
Incredible! Great video. The guy scares me to death I think he's going to break it
Nice michael! Who did the camera work?
I don't remember!
That's so awesome!!! I've not seen torches like yours are they propane, oxygen?
Usually propane and air. From a compressor or a blower
Standard set of American style torches...5 point crossfire...16" ribbon burner and T 500 hand torch. Natural gas a a little forced air.
