[Noisebridge-discuss] Resource for flaming things?

[Sean Cusack]

awesome! Thanks for the help. I was looking at the flame effects class -
can't do those dates, but will totally be doing one of them soon. This
particular issue though has a slightly shorter timeframe...but should be an
easy fix. I can totally make some steel pipez :).
