Nina "Sam" Hibler from Dream Fire Glass pulling cane

Because Texas isn't hot enough already, might as well crank up that kiln full and start pulling some vitrigraph. Sam and I set up my little Olympic Hot Box kiln to pull some pretty sweet black, white and coral wig wag (twisted back and forth) cane. Granted sitting on a step ladder is not the most ergonomic choice but it got the job done. Now what is to be done with this cane? Thought I might use some in a glass weave I've started.

It was a hot day but we pulled some awesome cane. Can't wait to do it again. Well maybe when it's only 90 not 109
