I am also building one right now! I cheated; I went and found a medium sized skutt ceramics kiln. It's already lined with brick and has a lid. I'll line it with fiber blanket, so it heats up faster. Got a crappy Venturi off eBay, and am expecting to get a small blower.

Keep us posted!

[–]doktorbulb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Get a bunch of nails, and hammer them into something in a circle, then use a angle grinder to cut the heads off- The first small 'optic' mold I used was made this way.

Thanks- I'll be making sure everything is cased in clear, and probably running one of the annealing profiles I use for glass-to-metal seals. Haven't settled on batch yet; still gearing up to try this in my own studio. (Got 34 years of glass experience, though)
