I have Essentlial Lampworking 2 VHS and rented this. Should have watched them in correct order! More boro basics, good instruction.
Lots of information. Dig the side captions showing exactly whats being done with drawings and actual lampworking at the same time.
Good and clear instruction for beginner, but you do want to be a bit familiar with lampworking with boro before trying out some of the projects in this video.
The camera work is not always ideal, but the material covered is fascinating and reasonably well-organized. I'm not a glass-worker, so I don't know how complete or thorough the information is. You'd need some grounding in the basics before diving into the techniques here, but it's still great stuff to watch.
