It took me years, but I finally created a handle for this lil cheap- O (but effective) induction heater. I wanted it to heat electrodes while under vacuum (doing so makes the tube run better) and oven pumping- but since I bombard pretty much everything- I haven't really needed it. This one is super cheap I paid like, $60 for the ATX power supply and $40 for the induction heater board off ebay. 500 watts 12vdc is a nice tool!

I learned something making these #neon #mycelium for #DebCzeresko . When bombarding the tubes to clean them we typically add a curled piece of #paper as a guage and tell the bombardier when the tube is hot. The papers on these little 8mm tubes incinerated (good), but the heat from the burning paper was enough to cause the already heated glass to suck in- at which point it still lit from the hot conductive glass . #learning #handmade #itselectric #bombard #incinerate #nerd #brooklyn #nyc #glass

Picked up where I left off last year and with bending this #zooted #doodle. I was happy not to mess up and break it- first one I have made like that, all zooted (except the Ruby red)! Definitely nice to have one #survive - all the weld-bends must be perfect!
Found those floor tiles with a "take me" note on them. #newyear , new floor tiles🔥🔥. It's only a matter of time before a hot shard of #glass falls on the #foam
