Dichroic Alchemy Fireworks
Twisting up Galaxy Marble...

*Originated by Kevin O'Grady

The most important things to remember during Fireworks creation with BoroCoatingsTM by Dichroic Alchemy are:

2.) Encase BoroCoatings with a clear rod of 4-6mm on metal side of glass.

3B.) Hold strip 6-10 inches from tip of torch. Start twisting while strip is pliable. DO NOT heat up the strip so it is gooey hot, only heat to a degree of pliable hotness. (Make sure oxygen mix is very rich.) When twisting- twist slowly while keeping the glass fairly cool. After you are done twisting there should be ridges that you can feel from the twist. If you twist while the glass is too hot then the needle matrix will distort.

To get the Dichroic Alchemy exclusive extreme needle effect, use a BoroCoating from the wizard series like the RD51 Starship/Tical rainbow BoroCoating and to get trichroic effects use a color from the new Trichroic galaxy series.



"This is the most profound spiritual truth I know:
that even when we're most sure
that love can't conquer all,
it seems to anyway."
