a few simple glass hacks on a budget torch with boro glass and making hearts

It is so weird how piezoelectric crystals work. Who came up with that bright idea?

Why do you wet the glass before breaking it, when you use the scoring knife?

Absolutely brilliant......i bet this guy never have to buy gifts most of the time for those special days of our life........he makes them😉.

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU MAKE MY NAME OUT OF GLASS...LAURA

Do you need to anneal them at that size? If so, does it have to be a kiln that’s used?

Oh my i love this guy

Really cool and awesome tutorial, not many people are as calm as you when doing this

Why graphite?

Thank you

AMAZING!

Watch out for those big flint spark starters. They ca deposit crud on the face of your torch if you do it a lot

@Lu Libby

whats the Burner that you are using?

Wow I never thought it would be possible to play around glass like this without glass blowing... thanks so much for sharing will check more out. Please make a sunflower :-)

I've been wanting to do this for years so I could make myself a big bong LOL

It's interesting that you said that a graphite rod helps for making round loops and whatnot, but what exactly is it used for and how do you use it properly? What are some things to avoid doing with it, to either avoid mistakes or keep the tool from becoming damaged?

do these smaller pieces require anealing?

Thx for videos. Retired Neon Glassblower and I do a little art. Scientific work. Your videos are helpful. Thx Bryan.

Thank you, this was very useful and I'll be watching more :)

Bro..
You got some Dope AF skills there Player!
I'm trying to learn myself and watching you're video just gave all the more Motivation to start.

Just got my first propane torch...just a bernzomatic...new to this any tips?

what tourch do you use though plz ??

I love how this guy is such a character! I feel like he's my friend just from watching his video! Thanks man!

Thank you so much. Informative and entertaining.

Really helpful. Of course subscribed. Big thank you x

Huge thanks for this video gives me so much more confidence in my set up to just get at it!

My daughter wants to do exactly what you're doing in the video. Torches are prohibitively expensive. However, my father is a retired welder. He has torches, tanks, and regulators. Can I use that equipment to get started?

This is one of my new favorite videos on the internet. I'm an artist/craftier myself, so this is just a fun vibe. I enjoyed this window into your workstation. Relatable

Can I use Beyiwod O2 Medical MD 2.5L tanks for flamework? Can I get them refilled?

Hello, I got some equipment and made a probe with an unknown composition, you can briefly explain to me that you use borosilicate glass and whether I could get it, to have more success, thank you

Doesn’t it needed to be annealed?

If you got a triangular file you don't like and a grinder you can make a scoring knife takes less then 1 minutes if you're good on a grinder and you don't do the whole knife.

Thank you for sharing what you know. I was trained by an old Slavic man was a master tradesman and machinist. There is nothing more valuable then getting to learn at the hands of a master in their trade.

Torch machine

Could you guide me to info that will help me learn to construct simple frameworks from 3 or 4mm boro rod, I am trying to make marble runs, so how can I replicate the spiral lifts and track joining half hoops that you see in the systems using copper rod, and soldering!!
Will joints made using a tiny torch need subsequent tempering etc etc

Thanks for sharing, Lu!!! Hope you're doing alright <3

Beautiful!! Where can I get a touch like that, please!!! I am from Mexico

Hello Beautiful heart ♥!
I was wondering ( I am very interested in working with glass ) what typ of tank is that nozzle connected to? Propane or one of those smaller handheld tanks? I have the small ones I used for burn staining my chicken pens as I & a friend built them. lol can't have to meny hobbies when you are disabled
Thank you in advance

what is your torch. Can you use acetylene?

Thanks!

What do you use it for looks good for smoking meth

Thank u so much. Diddnt do flamework in a long time and you encouraged me to give it a new try today!

Hey hows it going, i came to see how to thicken a sphere but i saw gravity works i will try that, but learnt a lot more also when i had a close look at the heart i was surprised, was it done in a field or indoors. Lol. Subed and thanks from Dave St Kilda Melbourne Aust.
