I was making an attempt at doing a faggot weld on a piece of shqre 1/2 inch last night and noticed a really "pretty" green coloured flame above and below the piece after it had been initially fluxed with borax.

is this normal or should I run screaming to the woods?

according to my dad, who is a potter a green flame is a sign of running in reduction (which i always took as being better than an oxidizing flame correct me if i am wrong)
