Hey Glassman! I just subscribed to your channel and I'm going to check out your tutorials. It's always a blast meeting other glassblowers and getting to share our knowledge and techniques with the glassblowing community. Can't wait to see your jellyfish pendants!

Would paddle mashers be better? More surface per squeeze for smooshing?

@FusingShop 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Elizabeth!! Which part do you think would be good for using the smashers?

@elizabethwatson71 2 жыл бұрын

@@FusingShop right around the 3:15 mark. There you used your torch top marker and another graphite mold. If you use some wide paddle mashers, you can stay right on top of the flame. You could then reduce the stress inside the glass by keeping the glass hotter and concentrate more on the pulling

Hello Sim. I have a question for you related more to akneeling. I’ve been having trouble with my marbles cracking, any size really this last time I sent my kiln for 3 segments. full speed 1050° hold for about four hours the second segment ramp full to 940° hold for 30 minutes. Second segment ramp down at 100° an hour to 500° and then just turn off does that sound OK for marbles ranging from 1/2 inch to an inch and a half. I would love your input thank you so much

@FusingShop 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Dan! Thanks for your question. You need to hold the 1050 for an hour for each 1/4 inch. For example, if your marble is 1/2 inch thick, it would be 2 hours at 1050 and 2 hours at 950. You need to anneal for the same amount of time that you keep the marble at the strain temp of 950. After the 2 hours at 950 you can let the kiln drop to 100 degrees. Hope this helps!

Whats that metal piece in you right hand that's holding the rod? When your pulling it

@FusingShop 8 ай бұрын

Hello! It's to give you some extra handle to hold the glass. I'm not sure what they are called but you check mountainglass.com. All the best! Sim

What can happen if the metal tool goes in the flame?

@FusingShop Жыл бұрын

So a few things. 1. It ruins the metal. My students often put the metal tools in the flame and it deforms the tools. 2. Metal is a very good conductor of heat and it picks up heat very quickly and can burn you. 3. Metal vaporizes at high temperatures. The vapor fumes are toxic for your body. 4. It stains the glass.
