You are a true renaissance man! You have totally impressed me with the stained glass thing. That made me think that you could do anything and now you do this?? Glass blowing...WOW! I guess that I have to say that I am beyond impressed. I'm trying to think of a challenge that I could give you. Not a challenge on the level of climbing Mt. Everest , but something that could possibly stump you. I'll be thinking. Keep the windows open. You'll know that I'm thinking by the smell of the smoke that my brain gives off when I really try to think.
That was very cool! I'd never considered a glass blowing class before....now I gotta do it. I also liked the glow in the dark stuff. How does your globe look like in the dark? Thank you for the video!
Most interesting Tom, thanks for showing us. Incidentally, I've noticed that glassblowers often cover their right arm; was there any explanation of why they do that? Cheers mate, very enjoyable vid.
I have watch the Netflix show but haven't noticed covering their arm. Maybe to protect it as it gets close to the fire? I have to be on the lookout for that.
LOL - Actually, I do know how to juggle. I used to juggle flaming tennis balls. You apply some rubbing alcohol and light them up. Any other challenges? That one was too easy :-)
I take my first class today. Watching videos to get familiar before I go.
Have fun!

Let me know when you figure it out. I'll give you a hint. I'm not too good at automotive stuff.

This is awesome well made cheers
Very cool... did you plug the place you took the class and I missed it somewhere?
Yep - 55 seconds in
That was very cool!

It looks ok, not as good as I expected. Thanks for watching.
@@AlleyPicked I looked for a glass blowing class near me( Loveland Colorado). There is one two miles away. Thank you for showing this fun activity.
@@stevecausey545 Fantastic! I'm considering taking another one. Hope you enjoy it.

Tom, Does blowing the foam off
my beer count?
That's a different form of glass blowing. Whatever works for you :-)
U re a Genius.. Sir what is that colorful grit on table ?
Different colors of powdered glass on the table.
Thanks for sharing 💯
I just got a job at a local glass blowing company. Loving it! Hard to find a job that encourages you to practice as much as you want
That is awesome!
@@AlleyPicked Yessir! Not having us do benchwork yet, but we’re not far from it.
Really highly surprised that there are no blowing black glass bottles videos on TH-cam.
I want to do this 😭😭😭

Jesus Mary and Joseph, now he’s glassblowing. What next, juggling flaming darts?

day 1 learning about blowing glass and they need to change the name of the glory hole, haha
Well, I wish I could do this because I can blow up a balloon.
