  • Here's a little more about the Flame Tree Building Workshop I'm teaching. In this 2-hour construction class, you will get to build your very own propane flame effect. It's called a propane Burner Effect, one of the simplest to create, and produces up to about 25 flames with 4" tails. You will be provided with all materials and tools, except your own propane which you can pick up at any hardware store.

    Here are some pictures of Flame Trees that people made at our first workshop:

    Skills you'll learn include: plumbing gas lines, making a flare fitting, leak checking, hardening and drilling copper tubing.
    Reply to me if you want to sign up. The class is $40 and includes a free Alchemy ticket.
