How big is it?

Very neat!

I'm finally feeling better and spent some time outside for the first time in a week. Hope you are feeling better, but I'd encourage you to stay in bed for 2-4 days and stay warm.

Posting from bed, in the RV....

Yes, this is my Flame Off piece. The base is about 4 inches high, and 7 inches wide. It is made with nearly 400 individually made pins. Currently, people can bid on it, raising money for the glass school.

I'm thinking nearly 400 glass pins...wow! And, how is the annealing process handled in these circumstances?

They allow you to do prep work in advance. Some people bring a lot of prep, others make everything on the spot. I did all the black pins in advance, and made the 150 bigger pins live.
They have about 4 kilns ready for annealing and keeping parts hot while assembling. My pins (tried and tested) don't require annealing because they are so small. Which was a good thing because I was the only one doing 'soft glass' (COE 104) and it requires different temps than boro. And kiln space was scarce. The kilns run overnight, and in the morning there is often some breakage to be fixed. Working in front of an audience and such time constraints is hard.
Raven Copeland made a (with quite a bit of prep) 4 inch marble. And dropped it half way through. He managed to save it, though.

I know this is a long-running event for the lampworkers! What fun it must have been to participate, and great for your glass resume.

Nice work floorkasp.
