MAKING A GLASSBLOWER’S TAGLIO - DAGGER INSPIRED TOOL! w/ Dog Head Pommel

Thanks for checking out my glassblower’s tool build! My friend Carli (Instagram: @gnarlycastleglass) commissioned me to make these tools. She’s passed a few milestones recently and I've decided a gift is in order. Although she commissioned basic paddles, I’ve included a hand carved pommel. The sculpted pommel is solid 304L/308L stainless steel, designed to resemble her dog. Built up with TIG weld, this welded element makes for an excellent counter weight. I hope these tools are useful to her for years to come.
