probably want to warn people to use proper glass that handles the heat of flames. If it's not heat resistant glass its going to shatter sooner or later from temperature fluctuations.
While yes wearing a mask whenever using dusty solids is a must, cement and sand dust causes silicosis not cancer. This is a scarring of the lung tissue over time that prevents oxygen from being readily absorbed into the blood stream.
Great video! Everything was very well done! One suggestion to save some money would have been to first fill 3/4 of the glass with junk stone and then just top off with the marbles. Video quality and audio is top notch, nice editing, very enjoyable to watch. Thanks!
Nice, just a couple of suggestions, if you put some sand on the bottom of the glass before adding the burner, it will prevent the bottom of the glass from cracking from contact with the burner. Also, a sterno can be used with gel fuel and easier to control the height of the flame with the lid, and if you run out of gel fuel you can also use hand sanitizer since it will also burn clean and is 60% ethanol.
Not all pyrex is made from borosilicate anymore. Modern Pyrex sold in the USA is made from sodalite glass, which is much more unstable and will shatter from heat if it heats or cools too quickly.
@@kcb5336 Actually, borosilicate glass has a much lower coefficient of expansion (33) and higher thermal shock resistance than soda lime glass (96-104). Solid borosilicate glass rod can be put directly in a torch flame without cracking. Soda lime glass has to be brought up to temperature slowly.
OMGosh! I have been wanting a cool modern fireplace but I live in an apartment. I gave up the hope and decided to "approximate" the look with candles. But now I can have what I want AND I have two of those glass vases under my cabinet!! Thank you so much!!😍😍😍 Wish I had found your channel Sunday and I could have binged watched all Memorial Day 😁
I wouldn't though. The dust from the cement will collect in the venting holes of the blender. Also, it's too thick. It's going to stress out the motor and overheat it.
Gorgeous!! I love all of your projects and you manage to explain everything so well! Also I appreciate that you admit your mistakes, makes it even more professional!
Great looking project, especially for an outside table in winter (here in SW Florida). Consider using wedges on the sides of the glass with the thin sides down. If all the wedges are the same distance down, the glass should be centered and it should help keep the glass down. You can still use the hand clamps with the wedges or use small bar clamps.
I love your clever solutions like the sheath so the burner comes out without disturbing the marbles, and the funnel for fuel. Always enjoy your projects!
You can find many different style vases sizes/thickness at your local Salvation Army. Also keep your eyes open for any future craft supplies at garage sales or flea markets. Important: Make sure the vase or glass you buy is Pyrex or borosilicate It has to be one of these or tempered glass or it will crack/shatter
Nice one! FYI anytime you are looking for marbles or glass pebbles, check The Dollar Tree if you have one or Wal-mart. Those glass marbles are way cheaper in those places. Otherwise, pretty awesome. I may attempt that soon.
Oh my god! Thank you for this! You did an amazing job! I'm buying my first home and i am going to make a few of these and put them around my yard for parties! Thank you thank you!
beautiful project! doesn't necessarily have to be a vertical glass vase. maybe a glass kitchen bowl might be more readily available and cheaper, also more reliably heat resistant. i'd hate crafting this thing just to have the vase crack from the heat.
"Hon, I'm borrowing the kitchenaid..." Upvoted for using a mixer. That is classic. Why didn't I think of that. (Hope my wife doesn't attach the eggbeater to my 16v drill.)
You can just use the concrete without the glass and rocks and gel burner. Alcohol (rubbing) burns clean and will burn for up to four hours depending on the size of your concrete container. No black smoke and no mess to clean up after. Just add more alcohol when it burns all the way out.
Have you thought about the Japanese technic of lightning up the wood on fire to make it weather resistant? Just a suggestion since I'm loving your work.
I followed the link to the fire burner can, appears there are two types: Pro - which you saw & wanted, and the Standard - which you received, at about $15.00 less. Hope they didn't charge you for the Pro.

The glass breaks on heating due to thermal shock. Whenever there is difference in temperature between two surfaces of the glass, the thermal expansion of one side with respect to other side induces stress in the material. ... That doesn't mean that a tempered glass wouldn't break at any temperature.Jul 3, 2018 Quora › When-glass-is-heated-it-cra... The glass is fine unless you throw a bunch of very cold water on it then it only crack and tempered glass would too. Also, it would crack not explode. Test it yourself, it’s fun.
Wife: have you seen my mixer?
Me: uhmm... What?
The cat had it. Check the litterbox. The neighbour borrowed it. The FBI confiscated it. I saw the dog digging a hole in the church's backyard.
I'm making you a cake, here taste the batter.
Lucifer pretty sure it’s a spatula lol
Apple Pro we’re talking about the old mixer he used in this video, not the spatula
So NICE of you to point all possible mistakes a beginner would possibly do,AND how to not DO. Very honest of you!!!

That's what I came here to comment as well. That glass was thick but it didnt look like heat resistant glass.
Please where a mask when working with cement including when you sand. Lost my uncle last year to cancer caused by working with cement.
Kemarie Bug sorry man 🙏🏽❤️ thanks for looking out for everyone
i did not know that. thks for that info
Silicosis?
Stopped working with hazardous material years ago
While yes wearing a mask whenever using dusty solids is a must, cement and sand dust causes silicosis not cancer. This is a scarring of the lung tissue over time that prevents oxygen from being readily absorbed into the blood stream.
To help with that dimple, you can add sand till level before adding the rocks/marbles
sand glass???

That glass will crack and shatter if it's not borosilicate or pyrex glass.

Bullshit. Regular glass can withstand extreme heat and cold. It just can’t handle sudden temperature changes
Depends on how hot the fuel burns. That's also why a small burner is in larger glasss.

Thanks for posting! I appreciate that you shared about your mistakes and other considerations like how hot the glass got after use.

so beautiful !
too cool-i know what im making for x-mas gifts this year-thank you
Wow!!! What a sleek, elegant piece!
Lol I love the way you narrate and go about it thank yo👑
Congratulations yoy won my Subscription!!! I now have plans for the future decorating for outside
At first I was gonna take a nap, but then I saw this in my recommended and I was like “I don’t need sleep. This excites me”
I really like this. I may make 1 or 10 for my patio and pole barn. Very cool. Thanks.
Great job looks great
You make things very easy to understand
Thanks for showing 😊👑

Awesome 👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👏👏👏💕💕💕💕
Simple elegant well done
Very nice!
Best design yet!
You knocked another one out of the park👍🏻
Great idea
This is guy is amazing and practical!!
I loved this
Very, very nice
wow thanks jerome
Love your work Glen
!!!
You can get bags of river rocks and marble rocks from dollar tree.
Moisture in river rocks can cause them to explode
If that cement isn't fireproof, it'll explode when heated. Usually you need to mix plaster and sand, so it doesn't explode.
Lol... Explode 😂 you mean it might expand and crack?
That is gorgeous!
wow. Amazing
Your work is always so damn neat that you put the people that litter to shame.
Great idea, however I would just stick a large candle and voila😃.
Glen my man you are on fire.
Fantastic idea!....Damn, even I can make this.
Thank you for sharing
Betty Thomas you can make way more than this lol.
Creative!

Wow very cool! Would be a great addition to a camping experience
So simple yet so genius.
Beautiful. Just a suggestion. Could have use double glass jar idea to prevent outer glass getting hot
I would be worried that the Glass would break. But I LOVE this idea.
Really cool! I think some paint on the base, perhaps a tribal pattern, would have made it REALLY POP.
Unless that glass is tempered you're going to be wasting $125
I was just thinking that.
That's neat..
I love your ideas, thanks for your inspiring videos!
Thats incredible
Beautiful..!!! Wow..!

As a home baker, my heart bled for the hand mixer used for cement paste. 😩
This was a stoner project.
As someone who has passed a 9th grade English class, my heart bled for the lack of grammar used in the video.

If you cut the Pyrex glass in half (the long way) and off-set the pieces you would make a tornado...
You have a video on this😲
Search Pyrex fire tornado... bunch of videos on it pop up
So talented. You did a great joy!
But how to choose proper glass vase to avoid cracking from heat?
I would be excited to actually watch you do your work in person. This, way you can tell me what the hell I am doing wrong.
Stunning!!
Nice 👌
Nice job, Bro. 👍
Good job. Looks great.
Great job! I think I'm going to try this. Learning from your trials!
Came out looking great!!!
Can you use any thick glass vase or does it need to be fire resistant?
Looks really nice! Love vessels with fire inside!
You make a damn nice piece there my friend. Great video.
very nice
This guy is amazing . I'm gonna follow him.
Thanks 😊
