eventho this is for beginners...try not to get so big moils on the pipes... just waste of glass and energy. and work warmer. Rather drop 5 pieces a week than work cold rest of your life
@@Cookiejarl Very difficult to keep the moil small if you don't use the marver or a block. If you don't use a tool to pull the glass off the pipe your moil will be large. I bet she doesn't drop pieces but this is a solid fundamental demo.
The bubble blew out very unevenly, setting you up for future problems. A marver or block should have been done before the bubble was put in. That is a given. Its an OK instructional video for a beginner glass artist, but lots of information was left unsaid.
Hi! You are 100% correct, except for the fact that this is specifically a "no-touch, free-hand cup". This is not how you would usually make a cup, but is a GREAT teaching tool to force students to pay attention to Gathering, Turning, Heat, etc. Beginners often rely too much on tooling the glass, which cools it too much and slows the process down. Over-blocking/marvering also teaches students that you can just fix a bad gather with tooling, when they really need to focus on gathering and turning instead. So, thanks for the comment and if you want to see classic glassblowing you can watch this: th-cam.com/video/4lRgNkiHadg/w-d-xo.html or this: th-cam.com/video/tsg2qGD-PE4/w-d-xo.html Thanks again.
great lesson, and good instructions, but why have your hands soo close to the glass when you point out things ??- makes us all a bit nervous!!, just use the tweezers or the "jacks", at least there is little risk of burning yourself!!!
I am so happy I found this!!!!
Very good instructor, covers Why's very well. Looking forward to more.
Much appreciated!

The radiant heat coming off the glass at that size is minimal. I take care not to actually touch it!
