Hello Lightning Tamers!

To my right is video I recorded during a livestream on Instagram, where I talk about my thoughts on applying Engraving and Cut Glass Optics and Texture to a vessel that will pumped for Plasma Glass.

Some things to consider:

maintain thickness of 1/4 inch
Avoid engraving with a SHARP profile, such as a 90* angle or V-cut.
(Theory) Flame/Fire Polish in THEORY will reform the 'skin' of the glass allowing to it to maintain Structure under vacuum.

Thank you for your support!
If you have any questions you'd like for me to address in these shorter format video or audio, please let me know!
