Cameron Tower

Cameron first used a torch in a High School art class in Wisconsin, instilling in him knowledge of the flame and a love for the science of art. In 1986, he began brazing bicycle frames for Schwin Bicycle Co, then moved to Eugene in 1993 where he began flameworking with Hugh Salikind and Bob Snodgrass. Tower took his first Hot Shop class in 1995, and after three years of study began working at the Glass Eye in Seattle. Today, he maintains a lampworking studio in Seattle and continues to work at the Glass Eye.
