Looking for source for Hydroperm.

Where are you? You should be able to get it through most ceramic supply places, but since it is heavy, you might not be interested in Seattle Pottery Supply or Trinity Ceramics in Dallas.

I got mine at a ceramic store that sold hydrocal in Houston. They had to special order it but it was no big deal. Liam

Mike, I am in Dallas. Trinity does not carry it and can only order it by the pallet. I don't need that much. Have you actually purchased it there? Perhaps I spoke to the wrong person.

Thanks, G^2

Houston is closer than Seattle. Do you recall the place?

Thanks, G^2

You do realize that there is a HUGE difference between HydroCal and HydroPerm right? Hydrocal is not rated as High for temps andI have never used the stuff for mold making for that reason.

Glen, I do believe you have sent me info on sending things to you, I have plastic pails, new, with sealable lids and packing tape, if you want to pay the freight to Texas. I could send some to you and to Liam and that would split a bag, pretty much. 25 lbs goes a long way in slumping molds.

You guys say the word and I will have my friend ship it from his store/studio

Thanks a bunch for the offer. It is above and beyond. I will try to track it locally some more before I take you up on your offer. I am actually looking building some prety large molds for kiln casting so I will want a steady supply if my ideas work out.

Regards, G^2

Yes yes, by all means. I need hydroPERM. The stuff you whip air into and can use for both glass and metal casting as well as in mix for slumping molds.

Thanks so much for all the help. I am browsing that

I get hydroperm from Fusion Headquarters they sell it in 5 lb bags.

Twice the cost.

Took me forever to find it. Their website lists dealers. Then you need to work the phones to find one that actually stocks it.

Never fully comprehended how fortunate I am to live in such an industrial state! Just about everything I need is right here, nearby, except for quality help, that is still a problem, guess I just expect too much. Darn.

I'm not nearby but let me know if you need some temp help on a big job.

Terrific offer, Thanks, my thing is ongoing, but your welcome to stop in when in the area, I think the commute would not be conducive to an ongoing situation. I do know a guy with a Citation, but his schedule is erratic too, and flight cost would not fit the budget.

One of the better people I had was a kid that hung out starting at age 14 to clean up and stuff, then got interested in building windows and lamps, by the time he was 18, and knew enough to be quick and beneficial, he discovered girls and cars(sure, now he has money!) and forgot how to use a phone to tell me he WOULDN'T be at work. Bye bye Oh well, everybody's got problems

I had the same problem with my son. Learned flameworking at Corning but just wants to play video games and girls. keep me in mind when you get that major job and just need somebody to help with the kilns etc. I wouldn't be much use on your stained glass work but I do know my way around the warm stuff. Wouldn't cost nearly what you might think as I would be close to family and could make a few gallery stops with my work. Short term only though. I've got business to take care of in River Rouge and Traverse City. Have to drum up some business so I don't have to lay anybody off. When I get that way I'll surely stop in.

Explain Citation. Err, did I just fail the entrance exam?

Cessna Citation Jet, the only way to fly!, cost, app $1000 per hour, plane and crew

OK. Now I see. If you need me in a hurry I could make it pro bono. Let me know when to be at the airport.

Does that mean you will work for free for the plane ride? For how long would you do this and for how many plane rides? the guy that owns the plane is very close, he also sells them if you have an interest, he can show you how the plane pays for itself, after the initial purchase, of course. $7-9 Mill for a small one.

I think I'm in the wrong line of work.
