Hi All,
Last night I attended the MJSA Members Meeting banquet. I was
speaking with a metal supplier from the group and enthusiastically
relayed about my experience. Since I had just taken the granulation
workshops at Wildacres and rekindled my love for the process, our
discussion was access to gold granulation spheres. It was one of
those, “funny you should mention that” moments. He was in the mind
frame that nobody does it much and therefore, they don’t want to
invest the money. I mentioned to him, that the najor drawback was
access to spheres themselves. At the moment, SPM is the only
manufacturer. If there was another source, I am sure that more
people would invest the time to learn and produce stunning work.
So my friends at Orchid, I am taking a poll for to develop a
secondary granulation source. If you are interested, I need to find
out how many of you are there. We are looking at gold granulation
spheres first.
Please email me OFFLINE please. Don’t want to crowd Orchid. Place
GRANULATION in the subject line. This is exciting news for all of
us!
Thanks,
