I don't need jokes. This is fascinating

[@joshschneider9766]

and sorry miss, no music in the edit LOL. but you know, i like the calm quiet hum of white hotshop noise. i havent had the chance to blow glass in a long time. i didnt realize how much i missed that hum. and the smell of slightly toasted cherry wood. and beeswax. thanks for the walk down memory lane in addition to exposure to a pretty sweet technique :)

Thanks Raya. That was completely entrancing. I watched this with my family and now we're all busily looking up your amazing work online ...have you seen this one, have you seen that one! ...not to mention the rabbit hole that is cedar basket weaving.
