Hello,
I am new to glass beadmaking. I was told by a member of the AZ Society of Glass Beadmakers that you make mailbox kilns or know how to make them. Would you be able to assist me? Do you sell the instructions on how to make them? I would really appreciate any information that you would be able to give me.
Thank you.
I Have made Many of the Mail box kilns and they are my favored bead kilns. I have improved them over the years. But you can get a good start from the original designer Dudley Gibberson http://www.joppaglass.com/
He is very nice and has instructions and parts. All parts can cost 400 With a simple controller and I sell them for 744 new and Tested with the controller programed.
Hi
I was given your name as someone who lived in Paris, although reading your
site I’m not sure now. Anyway I live in France (South Champagne). I am a really new beginner into lampwork and I was wondering if you did live in Paris whether you gave lessons or maybe you could tell me where I can get some and also materials, I have to say my french is not that good yet so might have a problem with a french speaking lesson. Thank you in anticipation.

I have bien teaching for 15 years and I know I could give you a great head start if you are still looking for a good class. I have access to a great studio in the south of paris that has 70 years of Glass bead history and I can help you get all the materials you need. I am only here throught the 20th of January this time but I will be back in May. Hope to see you soon. Beau
