wow im sorry i never saw this comment till now. Not sure what to say other than when I started making marbles I was broke after buying all the main start up items...I needed a little help holding my work still after a few hours so I came up with this idea. the C clamps I added because if I need to I can let go of everything and it wont roll off if its centered on the can. lol I thought it was a genius idea and worked so well that eight years later I still use it. It's also very light weight so easily moves out of the way or back into position as I need it.
i love the coffee can yoke. do what you can with what you got. dope mib
I l like your home made roller.
That was very cool. Good choice of music as well. I'd like to attempt practicing this.
Dope tunes!!🤘🏽
love to see more glassblowers uploading, keep dropping vids
Great design!
Beautiful work. Can you share tips on fire polish and what kind of flame is needed and other flame changes and uses for it. Thank you 🙏
Your intro made me feel like I was in a galaxy far far away
Can you tell us more about your coffee can? It looked like you could use at least 3 different spots as rollers?

What color did you use to make the flower pedals? It looked clear in the video. Your work is beautiful.
I used amber purple, it looks almost clear but in person you can see it’s tinted. 😎
It pops off because you go to too hot of a flame, if you start with mostly gas flame and work up temperature it would not happen.
What grades of colored glass do you use?
I use borosilicate only, I used soft glass for ten years before switching to boro
