I have sold many of these to various lampwork artists and figured you may be interested as well.

Just a thought if that might be easier. The only thing is to make sure the intake is far enough away from the exhaust. I empathise with you on the cold temps, this winter has been much colder than last so far. I hate it when that's the reason for no torching.

The behavior you describe here could simply be a bug. Either way, getting useful feedback from experienced users/sellers will help them correct issues like this. They can't fix what they don't realize is broken! (and, it helps you determine whether or not they really are just scamming).<BR/><BR/>@ms. steele - find lots and lots of busy blogs to comment on and make sure to leave your url.

You may have notice that when you list an item and you view the main page of the website your item(s) will show up quite often in the featured product list. When I first noticed this I was very happy that my items would get this type of exposure, as I’m sure most other sellers would. That was until I visited the site from another computer and noticed that my items suddenly were not showing up. I originally thought that maybe they just dropped out of the list over time as Etsy.com listings do. This was until I went back to my main computer and noticed that my items were always showing up on front page.<BR/><BR/>What I found out is that if you are logged into the site or your session is still active the site knows you’re online and cycles your products through the main page for you to see giving you the impression that you are getting front page exposure of your products. However, if you are not logged in or your session has timed out (you wont see the “my store” link on the top right) your items do not show up. So in essence it’s all for show to make you think you are getting front page exposure and you’re not. Totally shady behavior on their part.sophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13420192287383634316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7205931270954823166.post-84200914893808756992008-12-02T14:07:00.000-05:002008-12-02T14:07:00.000-05:00Thank you Robin. :)Thank you Robin. :)msteelearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06808856789926235337noreply@blogger.com
