"Are You Ready to get More
Creative with Your Glass Blowing?"
From the glass artists at
Fledgling
Studio:
Saturday morning --
You already know how to do all the basic
lampwork moves...
 |
cutting glass
rods and tubes |
 |
pulling
points |
 |
blowing
bubbles... |
And you've probably made loads of glass Christmas balls and twisted
glass icicles.
But aren't you ready to take your glass blowing
skills to the next level?
Are you ready to combine those basic glass blowing moves and make
something more complex?
Sure you are!
And we'd like to help!
The Starving
Artist's Lampwork Project Book is filled with
glass
blowing projects that let you take the skills you've learned as a
beginning lampworker and combine them to create more complex projects
that really show off your glass blowing mastery.
The Starving Artist's Lampwork
Project Book
How to create unique art glass
items using glass rods & tubes and a torch.
With illustrated step-by-step instructions for 18 projects
18
Different Lampworked Glass Projects
After a brief refresher course on
the basic techniques of torch-worked glass, you'll
find page after page of well-illustrated, step-by-step lampwork
projects -- 18 in all -- that you'll be proud to create.
From simple sculpted stirring
rods (with a variety of lampworked animal
heads) to an elegant ribbed flower vase to complex covered glass boxes
and a spun glass sailing ship...
There are enough projects in here to challenge
your glass blowing skills again and again. |
Well-illustrated Step-by-Step
Instructions
The Starving Artist's
Lampwork Project Book includes
95 pages, filled with lampwork projects that originally appeared in a
series of training manuals that were created during World War II
for use in the rehabilitation of veterans returning from military
service overseas.
Each project includes a list of
all the materials required and detailed, step-by-step illustrated
instructions for creating your own lampworked masterpieces.
We've
digitized the illustrations from one of those rare, original volumes,
enlarged and cleaned them up where necessary, and reset most of the
original text. We also updated the contents and added a new section of
resources for today's lampworker. |
How much does it cost?
About now, you're probably
wondering just how much it's going to cost to get your hands on a copy
of this rare book...
The original training manuals were produced in quite limited quantities
and distributed only to veteran retraining centers scattered around the
U.S.
Like the World War II veterans they were created to assist,
original copies of these texts are becoming more and more scarce as the
years go by. And whenever complete volumes do show
up on the rare book market, they can cost a small fortune.
But we've already scoured used book stores and searched rare book rooms
all
over
the country in order to track this volume down so that you don't have
to.
Now you can own this information without paying
anywhere near
the market price of one of those rare, collectible editions. |
Downloadable digital format saves
you money
Because we're offering this book
as a PDF-format digital download to be
read on your computer, you won't have to pay the high costs of printing
and
binding a hardbound book.
Nor will you pay the overhead expense of maintaining a
warehouse full of printed books.
And, because it's digitally delivered anywhere in the world, you won't
have to pay for shipping and handling. |
So how much would you expect
to pay?
How much would you
expect to pay for 18 illustrated step-by-step lampwork
projects...
Along with an instructional illustrated overview of lampwork glass
blowing techniques...
And a list of lampwork resources including books, magazines
and suppliers of lampworking materials and equipment?

We could easily charge
$47 for this guide...
After all, the original
training manual -- if you could find one for sale -- might easily cost
twice
that much... or even more.
But then, you'd still have to track
down
your own sources for supplies and the other resources.
Even
$27 would represent an incredible
bargain for this book...
That works out to only $1.50 per
project... and you'd get the lampwork techniques and
resource guide for FREE!
Realistically, we should be charging
an absolute MINIMUM of $17 for this
fully-illustrated, step-by-step guide...
and it's very likely we'll raise the
price to that level in the not-too-distant future.
But for Right Now...
in order to get this information into
the hands of as many
glassworkers as possible, we're going to practically give this book
away for only...
$9.97
You read
that correctly... JUST
$9.97
 |
That's just over 55 cents apiece for all 18 illustrated,
step-by-step lampwork projects... |
 |
Plus the illustrated
primer of lampwork glass blowing techniques... |
 |
And the lampwork
resource list including books, magazines and suppliers of
lampworking materials and equipment. |
You know you want this
hard-to-find information...
and you can see just how affordable
we've made this offer.
It's time to take your basic
lampworking skills to the next level. |
You can do it.
