Wow! That is an amazing design program. What's more amazing is your ability to manipulate the glass with such precision. Robert, you are truly a god among men in the glass world! You set a great example for the glass community. I love your work.

Your render of the peice in blender b4 you executed it was a whole lot to take in. This was nicely complete without needing extra narration. But a nice walkthru is always nice. Keep up the good work Robert

@MadJix2 ай бұрын
Narration is a plus. Did you just bend hot glass around cold glass??!! Wtf? Lol how did that not crack???
@RAMickelsen2 ай бұрын
It just seems to work. The glass skins up so there is a kind of insulation there where the two pieces touch. You can see it if you look closely. A shadow develops as soon as they touch where the glass is colder. Apparently, it is not enough to shock the cold piece of glass.

I personally prefer having an explanation as a voiceover rather than listening to music. I believe you can pinpoint important details that otherwise might be overlooked, some insights are eye opening. Thanks for sharing your process, it’s much appreciated.

Clicked on this video because I wanted to know if you could burn small holes in thin glass without it breaking, and even though it did not exactly answer my question, I found it very interesting!

Question: What long-term health impacts have you experienced working on the torch as long as you have?
@RAMickelsen3 ай бұрын
Not many. I am fortunate that way. About the only thing I can think of is cataracts, but that is a hazard that affects every hot glass worker. The good news is that cataracts are easy to fix and covered by insurance.
