Today is a workin' day
I'm still troubleshooting my generator issue..next up is to try and replace the O2 hose and see if there's a leak there...or pop the hood on the unit and make sure everything is connected properly...the kiln is warming up, i do plan on getting on the torch even if i have to use the other generator to do it...
Viking knitting is a very old style of wire weaving..I don't know the history and there isn't much for tutorials on the web, and I have a book that gives instructions, but I can't remember the name of it...its in the house and I'm in the studio, so I'll go get it later...Once you make the chain, you draw it thru a plate and that creates the neat finished look...HGTV had a lady who made one and filled it with pearls too...
I'm still working on the folks who created the Beaded Brooch and Bloomin' Crystal patterns...but they both work at the local beadshop and I'm not sure how much time they'll have to put together 'proper' (re: nice) instructions for sale, but I'll keep pestering them until they kick me...
Harry Potter - this Saturday! the Alps - the next 3 days (today is a rest day)...Its a busy July, indeed...Lady is getting used to the cats, she was fine when they came out into the living room, but she got really excited and wanted to play when they had wandered into 'her' space in the studio...so we're taking this slow, so no one has a heart attack...which is why the cats are in the main house and Im in the studio with her today...I also don't want Lady to end up with a big sliced nose either...so she and I are hanging out today...and tomorrow...and...
Time to go check on this green hose...what's new in your world? anything exciting that I'm missing?

Glad the critters are getting used to each other. Before you know it, they'll be best pals! Can't wait for Harry Potter either! I had the book store pre-order and mail it to me, so I probably won't get it until next week. Oh well! That's what I get for not going to the store myself and getting it. Hope you get your generator problem fixed. Its so disappointing to want to make something and the equipment is on the blink! Have a great day! Hope you can get some beads made!
