    I do torch firing , I agree with you on your explanation of the
    basics, I have just completed writing a  chapter on torch firring,
    for a new book that is comming out in the fall of 2002 it will be
    titeled "The Fine Art of Enameling" I beleive there will be 21
    artist involved in it - I think this book will be a great book as
    each artist is contributing info on their special entrest on enamels,
    some I have never heard of.  By all means fire from the back when
    doing flat peices - and beads I fire about 2" from the head of the
    torch , (in the blue part of the flame)- I fire with a propane
    Benziomatic torch as it produces a clean hot flame, and you don't get
    firescale or oxides in your work. Aileen Geddes agem AT redshift.com
