Hey all. im a senior at college park highschool in plesant hill, ca(east bay) my school is making the senior class do a project called senior experience. what we have to do is go out and experience something for at least 16 hours. heres where you can help me. i REALLY REALLY REALLY want to do lampworking for my experience. if you are a lampworker or know a lampworker that can help me please write back. the problem i have encountered in the past is no one wants to tell me anything unless i take their class. there is no way i can afford a real class. the project will only allow me to spend $20. so if you can help me learn how to do some cool techniques please write back. i have done beads on a hot head and i have a new nortel that i havn't used, so i do have some knowledge about working with hot glass.
thanks alot for reading
