When I got a lampworking kit, there was a metal band that fit around the small MAPP gas cylinder and a C-clamp. I attach it to my kitchen table and it securely holds the can still. Although I wonder if that would burn *too* hot? Might turn your whole length of wire into a ball?
If you try it, be sure to hold the wire in pliers. It gets hot fast. I also keep a bowl of water on the table, and after the ball is formed, drop the wire into the water.
Cheers, Carla
