And comments about the woman who says wow are even more annoying. I repeat, "All comments that mention the annoying WOWs by the lady in the background will be marked as SPAM."

Very cool! It's wonderful to watch someone with great skill work their trade. Near the end when he heats up the widened glass bowl and spins it to make the "fluted" wavy effect, I was in awe.
1st question: Yes, glass is made of sand. Silica to be precise. The whiter the sand, the clearer the glass will be. 2nd question: Yes, if you had a kiln you could, in theory, melt that window back together, but no, it would not be shiny, because the glass would take on the texture of whatever it was melted on top of. Most glass that is in windows is called "float" glass, because it is made by floating the molten glass on a bed of molten metal, usually Tin.

Thanks to two guys the guys who made it look so easy---really only a couple of minutes to make that bowl and to you for taking the video.I love glass I didn't know there was a glass museum.
Been twice to this place on July 24, 1977 and June 23, 1996. Excellent glass blowing shows and displays.
Wow is right, lady. That was awesome.
this is the best video of how its done i have ever seen, straight forward and really awesome i wanna do it

I love this demonstration, awesome work
George Kennard is amazing. He's one of the finest glass craftspeople alive today. Fasitdious & powerful.
Thank you for posting this. Very informative.
This is the only video that can make me stare at a peice of glass this long :)
Commentary was great really enjoyed it
@Colin24Astonwood copper has a much lower melting point than iron or steel, it also transfers heat much much faster meaning you may not be able to hold the pipe as closely. i am not a glass expert but i have a strong metal fab background
@Colin24Astonwood Blowing glass is usually kept at around 2100-2150, and pure copper has a melting point of ~1980, so that wouldn't be a good choice of pipe material. Even iron pipes can reach forging temperatures when blowing glass.
Awesome!! A TRUE professional!!
This is amazing!!!

Loved this video.
Thank you very mutch, your answer was good and useful
that was cool, thanks for sharing.
@Colin24Astonwood no copper's too heat conducive. the steel is used because it won't wick heat to the level of your hand.
This is so cool!!
Great video thanks for sharing !
We saw the glass maker create a vase a few days ago!
coolest job ever!!!
@Colin24Astonwood copper conducts heat more so the 'iron' would get hotter further up and be impossible to hold, plus it would oxidide at this temperature
excellent video
it really depends on the mixture if its "made of sand" \ .. soft glass VS. Boro (hard lab glass) A "kiln" would not even start to melt the Boro, a color pot or furnace is used there.. and thus again depends on what recipe u have .. but its ooo so fun to play with Highly recommend it!
How they fill air in glass,
@Colin24Astonwood no copper would let heat travel too far up the pipe. the pipes are made of high carbon content stainless steel, the heat travels at most a quarter of the way up the pipe. if you used copper you'd be melting your hand off.
This taught me a lot thx
that's incredible!
thats truly Amazing
Just the way of making Glass is magic, more than product. What you think about Glass is not a solid but a super slow liquid? I mean, I saw in this article that glass never crystallized. Any answers, opinion?
that was actually really cool
damn! i thought it was all cooled off at the end until he said its about 1000 degrees
Hi, can i ask you 2 things, is it true that you make glass by melthing sand? and can i melt a broken window and make annother window with it or it will not be ase shiny, thank you.
Waow ! this guy is a sorcerer !
i want to visit corning!!
interesting and informative learn thank you
Duuude i was just there todayyy! :D
u can tell he worked there for a while, he aint use no gloves...i love watchin glass form...
I have a question, can hand blown glass also have seams in it. Does anybody know the answer to that? Thanks
So cool 😊😊
The crafting skill in Runescape sent me here.
and this is really awesome btw :)
hi where do you teach these classes at???
first person to favorite :D
lol i was there last weekend.. it was really interesting..
how far up the rod does the heat travel ?
What happens if the molten glass pops??
Great video but why did you cut it like that -- he was about to say something about cooling the piece down properly.
My suggestions for getting a piece made whenever I went there were never picked ):
Awesome
Bravo.
the coolest pieces have imperfections in them. like in Roman glass! thats why the original rough glass making techniques must be preserved. i think the typical modern wine bottle or kitchen glass thats bland and lifeless is boring!
It would have been fun if the bowl breaked when they were finished.
Epic :D
How old do you have to be to get an apprenticeship?
@Colin24Astonwood hey. no you can't . the copper will just melt. i know because my hs has glass and we were fusing copper into glass
corning museum of glass, corning new york. over 35 centuries of glass history in there
@ecordellable trabalho com vidro dese 1985 nos sempre usamos canulas de aço inox . alem de suportar as altas temperatura é mas facil de manter a igienizaçao .
whats this job called?
holy shit thats how they make EVERY one??!!?
COOL!

@Colin24Astonwood well maybe its getting your hands too hot and the glass to cold.
damn! i whant a bowl like thaty :O
what that liquid?
There's a Museum of Glass?
That's was cool
I find this fascinating!! and people are real parrots here -.- ..
Someone needs to make a Metroid lava out of glass! make it happen!
nice
How much money to glass makers make?
@halobeast453 where?
lol someone said 'Wow' about 30 times during that video
wow
create glass is a art.
Then imagine how it felt to be sitting right in front of her. But I find the content interesting and I have no intention of having hundreds of comments about her sound effects dominate the responses to this video.
No you cannot use copper, the pipe would melt. And the pipes they're using here are actually steel. They just call it an iron because of tradition
WOW!!! but whos that man in the background soo annoying
I tought it was just put a block of sand in the furnace with some coal to burn it and soon you get a block of glass, but it doesnt looks that simple in real life.
thats pretty
Boa tarde amo a arte do vidro gostaria de trabanlhar fora do brasil como conseguir um enprego alguem pode me ajuda e guando ganha um bolador ou um auxiliar me responde por favor alguem ok

The stainless steel the pipe is made of doesn't have very high heat conduction at all, especially at higher temperatures. It can be glowing hot about 18 inches from where it's still room temperature. If you wear gloves (some blowers do) you lose the tactile sense of what's going on wieght-wise with the piece on the end, and it changes your grip when you turn the pipe. If you're good at not grabbing what you know is hot, gloves aren't really necessary. Bakers don't wear them, either.
ive just submitted 2 vids of this myself. go to my channel to see.
