2mm Mixed Transparent and Opal Bullseye Glass Stringers

I loved the video showing how to bend stringers with a candle, so I tried it. I found it surprisingly easy to control the curve; even a long gradual curve was possible after only a few practice attempts. It can be tricky to align several bends in the same plane though.
The problem with this technique, for me, was the sooty deposit left by the candle. Easy to avoid; use a small spirit lamp - or presumably a small butane flame.
