Finally found out how to review your comments LOL....things changed and I didn't have a clue. I would just like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone, for such lovely comments and compliments! Have a great 2014!!
Lesley Pyke you know what ... I had just started to watch videos again few weeks ago when I watched your video, after my mom expired 22 december ... (( .. i ........... (((
Very creative. To think someone would have just thrown it away. But with your artistic eye and talent you saw more than a mere scratch. It came out one beautiful piece.

Watching this video inspired me to try something new. Which has led to a career of exploring the engraving arts.I greatly appreciate your semi unwitting mentor ship has provided me with a renewed passion for creating art. Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your techniques and this wonderful art, that has completely transformed my life!
What a wonderful demonstration!... Your 'film maker' skills are excellent and your glass work is stupendous.. Thank goodness you did not put some silly background music like many of the other videos on TH-cam! - I love the hum of the flex shaft grinder/carver. It adds to the experience. Thank you again. You make it seem so easy.
This is , by far, one of the best videos I've seen on carving/engraving glass! This is ART. The video is about ten minutes needless to speak about the time you spent on preparing the camera, editing the video and the water hose and changing the carbite heads. Really, this needs more thumbs up and hats off. I will try to apply the mushroom design you displayed here.
WOW!! As I'm into pyrography I wanted a rotary tool kit. After watching this video I can't wait to have a bash at glass engraving. Lesley Pike your work is fantastic. Going to have a look at your web page. Thank you for your great video!
Once again a big thank you for all the lovely reviews. I am unbelievably busy and have no time to answer individual questions which I also get by emails and messages etc, every single day from all over the world. I will just say quickly here, the water drip feed is simply a 2way gang valve from an aquatic pet shop. Bit of tubing and an empty milk bottle. The drill I mainly use is a micromotor, Google it :-)The burs are a variety of diamond, stone and rubber, they all do different things depending on speed, pressure, wet, dry, worn out or new. You just have to experiment and practice. I have a large dust extractor as well as using the mask. Using water minimises dust levels considerably. Have fun and take care. ♥
Some may need a more detailed video. But I understand being busy, so... You did a great job though! If this is what you do with a scratched glass, you should start scratching all your glasses lol
Excellent video. Been doing stained glass for years among other projects. Always wanted to do glass carving especially on my early 1900's Roadsters Wind wings. Again great video.
affascinata da tanta bravura..... spettacolare! bravissima! non arriverò mai a questi risultati ma adoro guardare tutti i video di chi è più bravo/a di me. Grazie per questo video ^^
you do such a beautiful job and you make it look soo easy. I've been practicing and i'm still trying to make it look so lifelike. I enjoy watching your videos. Continue the wonderful work.
Thanks for sharing. Watching you do this is what I was looking for. Most glass etching vids use chemicals, sandblasting, pre done stuff, ect. Making wood cases, saya style, for knives I etched; I found "drawing" into wood more enjoyable. I got my first set of diamond tips for Christmas. Off to ruin some glasses to start feeling out shading.
BAD ASS! Skills you have!! Now take 3.5 grams dried Cubensis (powdered). Squeeze in half a lemon into your newly etched glass, pour in the powdered Cubensis, let sit for 30 min. Fill up with water, add your sweetener of choice, pop in a few ice cubes then enjoy your new glass from Pluto!!! Nice hand work on the etching.
that is absolutely amazing. I have never seen anything like it..I have been trying to find something to do as a hobby, and I think I just found it!! Amazing work !!! Cant wait to see more from you, I really hope its some instructional videos, that would e fantastic
Firstly can I say thank you for the vid, a great combo of humour an pure artistry (a rare thing on here lol) I bounce from one art/craft to another an see many great examples of peoples skills an talents, yours is up there with all of them, such beautiful shading an detail, an I will search out more of your work to share with others, many thanks :-)
Far out. So talented. Don't know how you did that freehand. Would be lovely to be able to do something like this, but this mere mortal hasn't your artistic talent. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
What a BEAUTIFUL JOB!!! LOVE the designs & my fave is that pretty pitcher! REALLY FABULOUS!!! Thank you for sharing! How WONDERFUL it must feel such accomplishment! Cheers! 🍷
Thanks everyone, lovely comments and I had a good giggle at the funny ones especially yours critterlover4278 I am sure your engraving is not that bad! :-) I have a page on my website that you might find interesting, hasn't been updated for some time but I hope to soon. www.lesleypyke.com/page/LP%20Glass%20Engraving%20Techniques.htm
Hi Ms. Pyke. Just wanted to say, you're my inspiration on this art work. I have learn some tricks from you. I love this video, because it shows what kind of tips for tour engraver you are using. Thank you very much
I wish I could be able to do this, but I am not good at drawing or clay modeling (I would think some of the same skills would be needed for engraving), plus I am sure you need a steady hand to do this. I get tremors and twitches when I work on something too long. I enjoy watching your process very much, seeing someone carve something beautiful into a scarred item to give it new life gives me the inspiration to continue with the crafts that I can still do. Don't stop breathing new life into otherwise plain and unused items!
I've been looking to take up glass engraving as a hobby, I've watched quite a few vids, and this is far and away the best so far. The close up views and the artistry of the final result have inspired me to definitely give it a try. Thanks for the time you've taken to make and upload. :)
As amazing as it is hokey. Great laughs and terrific video. Thank you so much for this. As a professional tattooer for 12+ years, I'm always messing around with different mediums. I picked up a piece of crap battery-powered engraver for 2 bucks on an impulse. Tried it on a water bottle. Knew I would enjoy it if my instrument wasn't garbage. (Expected. Great 2 buck investment to get the answer I was hoping for, regardless.) Tried a Dremel with the standard "comes with it" bur. Couldn't stop. Made something that *somebody* might think is rad. Not me, but still fun. Then found your video. Here we go down the rabbit hole. Not expecting to nail a mushroom like you did. I'll probably end up eating too many before giving it a go. Jk. Buying your kit this week. Yay!
I have a visuals of "Jason falling down a rabbit hole" :-D Thanks for your compliments, best of luck and if you really want to learn, BIG TIME, join my Patreon teaching channel www.patreon.com/glassengraving ! It is relaxed and fun and full of my best videos.
Hi Lesley, this is the first time I have seen this and I was totally mesmerised by your work, loved that dragon as well, thank you so much for sharing, can't wait to have a go myself, awesome work :)
cant believe i was holding my breath for that long hahaha i really enjoyed the video it was super AMAZING i wish i have the talent like yours.............
Just....WOW.....that was incredible. You are a beautiful artist ! I love the little fairy on the opposite side of the glass. I bet when you look through, it appears as if it is flying through the field, or about to land on top of the mushroom. I love it ! can I purchase this cup ? PLEASE !
Thank you. It is actually a fantasy type butterfly on the other side I added at the end for a bit of 3D effect. It does look a bit like a fairy when I look at it now :-) I do have this glass available for sale, have not advertised that fact as yet. Do contact me by email for further details if you wish.
Hey Lesley , always a pleasure watching and learning from a pro like you . But hey that's not why I'm writing today . Yesterday I watched a video from a guy that was really just into showing how fast he could bore a hole through glass . Like flat plate glass or mirrors , or mugs and jars and bottles . Honestly he didn't give a care about the raw edge he was leaving on each item , but he had a clever idea for a wooden template to hold the barrel bit steady . But that's not it either . This caveman (just kidding) had a VERY clever idea for keeping water trickling . He took a one liter plastic bottle . . . . filled it with water , and warmed up a very thin scratch awl ______ and about a third of the way from the bottom poked a tiny hole in the side . This butcher (again just kidding) had the perfect tiny little stream of water flowing on his projects . (Oh I know it's probably old news but I was so stoked with the idea I had to tell other people ) heh heh . Happy Thanksgiving and best regards Ms Pyke , Gary
Thank you Gary, that poor bloke's ears must be burning! rather primitive water dripping system, would be very awkward to not be showered with spray, no doubt fine for just drilling holes. Interesting nonetheless.
@@glassengraver It was primitive :-D However it did not spray . He literally could set the bottle down wherever he wanted , and just the tiniest little thread of water came out fed by gravity . Both hands were free to do whatever . The cringe part was the raw edge around each hole . He never suggested dressing the hole with fine sandpaper to prevent cracks . (Yikes)
красавица,всегда в настроении ,талантливая,.......спасибо за видео твоей работы,за технологию,что не скрываешь,а наооборот.....делишься.....я начинающий,поэтому твои Lesli видеоуроки для меня очень ценны.....я очень благодарен тебе!!!
There was something soothing/satisfying about watching this. And I was very impressed by the magnificent works showcased at the end. But I got a little chuckle about a minute in with the spelling of “carbite” for what I believe was meant to be carbide.
Cute video. You are an amazing artist! I like the fact that you free hand. I'm just getting started. Mine look like the scratch you started with LOL. But Yours are simply BEAUTIFUL
Gorgeous! Simply gorgeous! I love your work I watch your videos all the time. I"m trying to learn, I have numerous diamond bits assorted sizes still trying to learn which one does certain effects. Love Ya!
I would have called it good about 3 minutes in. That’s the difference between an amateur like myself and a real artist like you, knowing when to stop. All that detail is amazing for something as simple as a mushroom.
Very kind of you, thank you. I do have this glass available for sale, have not advertised that fact as yet. Do contact me by email for further details if you wish.
beautiful work leslie,i am a jeweller of 40 years,and your work is outstanding,would just like to say ,i hope you wear a dust mask for the dry work as glass dust is terrible for the lungs and stomach.
Your work is AMAZING! I embrace as well, but I do not think I can compare to your work. Yours looks so realistic. Though I use the diamond tips, and I'm sure I've seen the rubber and stone, yet I don't think I realized what I was looking at. I have so many questions about how I can make my work stand out a bit more and look add realistic as yours. I also draw and engrave wood. I would love for you to take a look at my work and maybe share some advice and tutorials with detailed explanation, I would greatly appreciate it. It is always a pleasure watching you work! Have a blessed day.
Finally found out how to review your comments LOL....things changed and I didn't have a clue. I would just like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone, for such lovely comments and compliments! Have a great 2014!!
Its so cute and funny when you don't speak throughout and speak at the end ))
you are a glassic lady ))
Thanks very much :)

you know what ... I had just started to watch videos again few weeks ago when I watched your video, after my mom expired 22 december ... (( .. i ........... (((
Kketansa Art
I am sorry to hear of your mom. I hope my video cheered you up.
Lesley Pyke
yes ... lot of
Very creative. To think someone would have just thrown it away. But with your artistic eye and talent you saw more than a mere scratch. It came out one beautiful piece.
I hate to tell you I deliberately scratched it for the video 😂 . On the other hand it's such a lovely thick Crystal I would have still done the same 😎
Ich graviere seit über 30 Jahren Glas, Holz und edle Metalle.
Was Sie mit dem Sektkelch, wahrscheinlich dickeres Kristallglas, ist wirklich sehr, sehr schön geworden.
Hut ab, god Job!
Thank you 😊

What a wonderful demonstration!... Your 'film maker' skills are excellent and your glass work is stupendous.. Thank goodness you did not put some silly background music like many of the other videos on TH-cam! - I love the hum of the flex shaft grinder/carver. It adds to the experience. Thank you again. You make it seem so easy.
Pretty amazing stuff. I love the goofy intro, and tea time lol.
Super work!! You make it look so fun! Thank you so much for sharing.
great post!
good to see others do the same kind of work that I do. ive been doing this almost 25yrs now. You so excellent work!
This is , by far, one of the best videos I've seen on carving/engraving glass! This is ART. The video is about ten minutes needless to speak about the time you spent on preparing the camera, editing the video and the water hose and changing the carbite heads.

Lol thank you 😊
A glass full of mushrooms. Now THAT'S a party! Cool video Ms. Lesley, thanks for sharing.
Just let me say " WOW That's Incredible!!!" Thanks for sharing. And your filming is great too.
1 Word, BEAUTIFUL. You are an inspiration for those of us who aspire to do work like yours.
Thank you Hope. Good luck with your engraving journey.
No, Thank You for sharing.
Thank you! Use a blank piece of flat glass to test all the burs and write on there which ones you've used.
Amazing work! You are very talented! I just purchased a rotary tool and wanted to see what its capabilities were, and here I am. In awe....
WOW!! As I'm into pyrography I wanted a rotary tool kit. After watching this video I can't wait to have a bash at glass engraving. Lesley Pike your work is fantastic. Going to have a look at your web page. Thank you for your great video!
I love your work and your mushrooms.

Hoya Lesley you're work is amazing one question what number grit diamond burr do you use and what rpm speed on you're micromotor do you use thanks.
rough or smooth, old and new are the grits I use :-) Speed depends on what I am doing, the burs that I am using and what effect I want with it.
Lesley Pyke pretty eyes..
Some may need a more detailed video. But I understand being busy, so... You did a great job though! If this is what you do with a scratched glass, you should start scratching all your glasses lol
LOL...I deliberately scratched the glass for fun ;-)
Thanks I'm looking to buy a dremel and your video has given me a better understanding of how to use it with glass.
Excellent video. Been doing stained glass for years among other projects. Always wanted to do glass carving especially on my early 1900's Roadsters Wind wings. Again great video.

I always start from scratch too, but it doesn't EVER look like that! Beautiful as ever Lesley. :D
Beautiful! You got talent.
Gosh Leslie, you got the skills girl!
Both, depending on the vessel. It often looks best looking through the crystal.
Hello Lesley, incredible talent and designs are beautiful, I want to see them all. Best regards
Wow looks amazing your detail is great!
You are amazing and an inspiration!
How wonderful. Thank you for your inspirational video.
You do some beautiful work!
great work....at first I thought you were just messing around...I was amused by the phallic design choice too.
It's just a mushroom :-D !!!

Hey Lesley , always a pleasure watching and learning from a pro like you . But hey that's not why I'm writing today .
Yesterday I watched a video from a guy that was really just into showing how fast he could bore a hole through glass .
Like flat plate glass or mirrors , or mugs and jars and bottles . Honestly he didn't give a care about the raw edge he was leaving on each item , but he had a clever idea for a wooden template to hold the barrel bit steady . But that's not it either . This caveman (just kidding) had a VERY clever idea for keeping water trickling . He took a one liter plastic bottle . . . . filled it with water , and warmed up a very thin scratch awl ______ and about a third of the way from the bottom poked a tiny hole in the side . This butcher (again just kidding) had the perfect tiny little stream of water flowing on his projects . (Oh I know it's probably old news but I was so stoked with the idea I had to tell other people ) heh heh . Happy Thanksgiving and best regards Ms Pyke , Gary
Thank you Gary, that poor bloke's ears must be burning! rather primitive water dripping system, would be very awkward to not be showered with spray, no doubt fine for just drilling holes. Interesting nonetheless.

buen trabajo señora lesley pyke felicitaciones...........

There was something soothing/satisfying about watching this. And I was very impressed by the magnificent works showcased at the end. But I got a little chuckle about a minute in with the spelling of “carbite” for what I believe was meant to be carbide.
Charming... blown away!
Cute video. You are an amazing artist! I like the fact that you free hand. I'm just getting started. Mine look like the scratch you started with LOL. But Yours are simply BEAUTIFUL
Wow Lesley that was so breath taking...thank you for sharing your talent ...very appreciated from another artist here just not in this field
Thank you so much and you are welcome 😊
beautiful work that you do and thank you very much for sharing your technique !!!
My pleasure 😊
Gorgeous! Simply gorgeous! I love your work I watch your videos all the time. I"m trying to learn, I have numerous diamond bits assorted sizes still trying to learn which one does certain effects. Love Ya!
I would have called it good about 3 minutes in. That’s the difference between an amateur like myself and a real artist like you, knowing when to stop. All that detail is amazing for something as simple as a mushroom.
Thank you😁
Your video is marvelous and your etching designs exquisite. Thank you for sharing. now on to your Etsy site.
VERY GOOD WORK you do. Amazing. The process seems difficult. A talent to say the least.
Thank you very much :-)
I like that dragon set!
okay so I watched this glass come to life, have personality. Show its beauty...and your art.............oh I gave birth to this glass!! I want it. LOL
Very kind of you, thank you. I do have this glass available for sale, have not advertised that fact as yet. Do contact me by email for further details if you wish.
beautiful work leslie,i am a jeweller of 40 years,and your work is outstanding,would just like to say ,i hope you wear a dust mask for the dry work as glass dust is terrible for the lungs and stomach.
This is beautiful work. Very talented lady you are. Thank you for sharing and I signed up
Your work is inspirational, I wish I had a tiny piece of your talent!
Sheesh, talented people making great stuff look easy. I enjoyed the video.
Thank you.😎
You have skills! Very nice 3D looking!
Thank you :-)
amazing, just amazing
Absolutely beautiful work. The detail is great.
Thank you.
You are amazing Lesley
Your work is AMAZING! I embrace as well, but I do not think I can compare to your work. Yours looks so realistic. Though I use the diamond tips, and I'm sure I've seen the rubber and stone, yet I don't think I realized what I was looking at.
