“My favorite tool that I use every time at the torch, I learned about in Marcy Lamberson’s class – Kote Marver. It is the best for marvering glass. It feels good in your hand and you can be close to the bead to see it is level. Works much better than a graphite marver. IMHO. I don’t know how I did glass before that. So much easier to control shapes.”

Some of my favorite tools.
By Robin Baum.
“The first is a pair of tube mashers. Very handy for rounding out and centering murrini.
2nd is Corina Tettinger’s mashers. Perfect size for almost any bead and very easy to squeeze especially for someone with smallish hands.”
