Thank you so much! These are super great to watch! Take this for what it is worth, but I love the voiceover rather than talking while you work. Also, I don’t know how you would do this, but a super close up camera would be super amazing. I will watch all of these!
Hi Utah Valley and welcome! Thank you for the kind comment. It's hard to get the cameras closer because of the heat coming off the torch but I'm always looking for ways to improve my videos and I'll try to accommodate your request. Hope you enjoy the other videos!
Typically with the clients I see neck and shoulder pain is due to tight pectoral muscles which would make sense with your arms in the position they are in when working at the torch. Stand in a doorway, put your arms straight out to your sides and bend your elbows 90 degrees with your hands up on the door frame. Gently lean forward, you should feel a stretch in your chest. Also you can lean your chest against a tennis ball on a wall and using your chest move the ball side to side which will massage the area. I hope that helps and makes sense!
Hi Mike! Thank you for your comment. My next video is going to be about my torch setup. I can do a kiln video but everyone has different opinions on annealing the glass so I would be expecting a lot of interesting feedback if you know what I mean.
I blew several years and just got back into it never used a kiln or better than a 5 hole national I am using a bobcat now and have a linx I really like your approach thanks
Always good stuff, nice comfortable watch.
Hi James. Thank you for your kind comment =).

Sounds awesome! Would love to see how it came out.

Hi! Yes this does make sense and I will try it out. How often are you supposed to stretch? Is twice a day enough?
@@FusingShop I always suggest to do it when you think about it, simply bc when you think about it you're usually in pain.
@@calmingfx Ok I'll give it a shot.
You're funny 6 kids wow your work is good I'm learning a lot. What are the odds of u doing a video of how to use a kiln properly?
