Finally, a stoner who still got his priorities straight.
Amrithanand finally woke up and able to read this lit comment, just to continue searching something, just something on TH-cam..
these guys would kill it in the custom watercooling business with that glass bending skill
What you watercool with glass tubes????
Interesting, they did not use aluminium, thanks.
At one point during my 'search' for a career, I thought I would apprentice with a neon sign maker. I found a shop, made arrangements for partial support with a government retraining program and then all that was needed was to have the shop owner sign the paperwork. When he found out that he would have to pay me minimum wage he balked because in his words: "Why should I have to pay you when it's my time, my glass, and my gas?" And that was the end of my nascent glass blowing career but I never forgot that phrase, "...my time, my glass, and my gas."
"...my time, my glass, and my gas." - He sounds like an ass, but I think you had to pass.
Seems like he should have been running a school and not an internship.
Not all the people know how much work there is behind a neon work, thank you for sharing this video!
I still think that $2800 for that puny little piece they showed is a ripoff.
What a beautiful piece! Wonderful film and a fascinating subject. Feel like I need to cherish every neon sign I see now.
The music and video direction on these is getting much better. This is great content, thank you!
Awesome how it makes those designs reality !
this workshop is brandon woelfel heaven
very high quality production. cool stuff
miss seeing neon lights..usually its LED now
Nacho TV neons are garbage and bad for health and the environment they should have never been invented or used
Nacho TV I agree Nacho!
The amount of misinformation one individual can spout in a single comment astounds me.
Well, firstly, how are they garbage or bad for health? Neon is a inert, _noble_ gas, it is chemically irreactive as it has a stable amount of chemical potential energy, thus, it doesn't have any effect on the health of your body or in the environment. If you're referring to the glass tubing's recycleablity, be it known that it saves more than 300~ kg of CO² being released into the atmosphere, and it isa great industry, as the material can be transformed into a variety of products.
To your second claim, if they never had been invented, important chemical and physical knowledge would never have been discovered, plasma displays would also be impossible, and a multitude of things wuld simply not exist, reducing the overall quality of life of people.
your comment actually makes me wonder if you are just trolling or really this fucking stupid
FissaVids who are you replying to
Great video. Thank you for sharing!
THIS IS SO SATISFYING
Very cool.
Thank you for sharing.
Eric
Awesome video, very cool video, I thought the music was apt and worked well.
me too. i think the song in the middle was by Nils Frahm, but not certain.
How to make ham, first you soak in a salty brine then smoke until cured. It does look relaxing and the creativity of the light artists is excellent.
I just found neon lights more attractive than the cold LED
Neon signs and lights are so cool and can really brighten the atmosphere of a place but they have become so expensive that people are forced to switch to LED or not buy them at all. I think if the price for them went down, they will start reappearing in streets and businesses.
I doubt that will ever change. Custom neon lights are work intensive and take hours - there is no getting around that. LED is quick and easy - it's just circuit boards - hence the much cheaper cost. Neon certainly gives a MUCH better result than any LED sign i've ever seen
@@pascalecnto68 ive seen a lot of companies do neon signs of these flexible led strips that you can bend however you want which takes less time,effort and cheaper materials but are still $500 so I take back what I said because it’s expensive either way
@@cynwashere that's interesting. What about the result? Is it comparable to a neon glow, or does it still has the harshness of led light?
@@pascalecnto68 I haven’t seen one in rl but from what I’ve seen online they look pretty neon bright to me and I’ve seen a lot of influencers and famous people get them as well and from pictures and videos they look really bright
I was tripping watching this!
Awesome!
What was the name of the music?
Do you have a favorite tube sizes/ diameter to work with? and clear or colorized? I think being a layman to this art, those were silly questions. now that I've gained a little more understanding of the topic, I would be more curious what gasses you like the most, and what effect is one of your favorites, discharge / low pressure setups, etc.
Lindo demais eu também sou profissional do neon aqui no Brasil
A Goku neon sign would look dope 💯 🙌🏻😁
super sick!
Very cool!
Las Vegas is such a neon-passionate town! Brightness beats the fuck!
use full this video brother thank you bro
Where can i get the neon lights for the use in a psychedelic event ?
I bet a chinese worker sees this and laughs.
That's not a fair comparison. We can't have slave labor in the West like China can.
name of the music at beginning of the video please!
1:26 sounded like a portal gun
So pretty
Wow!
Matt is brillant ,vid
I wish there was like one documentary that actually talked more about the concept of neon lights and their history and what they mean to society blah blah blah and all that.
I'm making one, hopefully it will be out next year.
Some music too loud. Also liked the video but it amazed me with all the people working with glass and now safety glasses.?
3:30 name of music?
3:27 why was this sequence needed. like dude its a spaghetti light.
Loved it, but the music was a bit loud in places
Christian J. Rowe OIE
Bespoke suits please
SoNev's Sin City has a fuckass museum that's all about nuttin' but Ne! World's brightest museum! Way brighter than hell!
Now I know why my neon collection, 20 pieces and counting cost so much.
$2800 for that piece seems ridiculous though.
I'm surprised you haven't made one yourself at this point.
If I were to go there, my dress code would be so strict!
0:59 "bend the knee on to..."
Good music video but the narrator was too loud
am I the only one who freaked out at the loud music? 5:24
Dude.
I would have thought it would cost more than 2800 tbh
wow $2800 dollars for a lampshade shape. At that price I expect it to be symetrical. Not nearly.
Plot: hippie makes lights. Not just any lights, cool & retro neon lights!
oh myan 2800
Sanskrit on the wall
Sarve Janaaha Sukhino Bhavantu
Good video, but the music was very distracting
I can buy a car with that money
Q. Chen true. But the technique they use and the amount of work and skill that goes into this makes it worthy of that price tag. :) it’s definitely an investment but these lights can last a really really long time and at this point, are pretty unique to have since most places have moved on to less expensive options. But I feel ya, I’d rather buy a car than a fancy neon chandelier as well ;)
Nina the making of almost every product requires hard work and dedication and those products aren’t as expensive
just an ad?
Everything is an ad.
Joep van Aert a tide ad
No? The video explores a concept that an artist is very passionate about. Also, it’s just a cool process in general
$2800 dlls NO WAY!!
2800 $ :(
Am i on shrooms
moth
wow $2,800 for a light fixture. Dam talk about rip off.
Make meth pipes jk 🤣
Ok so they heat tubes up and shape them. Big fucking deal.
and what do YOU do?
where the fuck is the ZEN stuff coming from out of the blue........... yeah neon really zen really THE thing i think of when thinking Yoga and zen crap. .... oh no not really
I wonder if any idiot actually bought that $100 lamp for $2,800
100 dollar, lol :p
On a side note I think the 2800 is quite steep.
You will be out of business very soon considering LED strips are cheaper, better, easier.
it get it that he works real hard and all that but he doesn't make any sence when he speaks
Yeah... men shouldn’t have pig tails.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING!
Really bad background music mix, just tell the story, stop with the 'Hero' music crap.
Did anyone tell this guy neon is dangerous inefficient and bad for the environment, it contains mercury. Does he knows that LEDs are a lot easier to work with and less risk of injury and environmental impact, is this guy still living in the 60s?
Neon lamps do not contain mercury, they contain neon. The mercury ones are usually called fluorescent lamps.
And you miss the point completely, this is not about efficiency or safety, it's about making beautiful things.
