Glass Making Demonstration at Corning Museum of Glass

This piece of glass looks oh, about more thana 1000 degrees. *Ahem, ahem celcius...ahem...*

Oh I hate that tecnique!

this looks boring but i like fire

ok.... try it and you won't think its boring

sawing of the neck is... weird. if he had the neck cut in well enough, it should break off without the sawing

GLASS MAKING SUCKS ASS RUMSFELD!!!!!

fuck you man

I'm honestly shocked a large corporation wouldn't have him wearing protective gloves. Look how close he gets sometimes. I just heard the anouncer say "We've had some people learn the hard way". Cool stuff never the less. I invested in Corning about a month ago.... not goin well so far, hopefully we'll see a change soon. It really is an excellent company.

glass workers don't usually wear gloves unless they are doing something huge. and besides, having the gloves on actually makes it harder to hold and handle the tools potentially creating a worse injury. plus, your hands don't get as close to the glass as you would think. Now, you may be saying, "well how about the newspaper?" well, the newspaper is kept in water and doesn't get hot.

oh an air hose attached to the sofietta.. i was like why the hell is he shaping with it??
