[@dillonchamberlain]

17 years ago I had my spine fused to correct severe scoliosis. During my recovery I drank gallons of Gatorade and watched hundreds of hours on how it’s made.

[@KristianMartin-o8w]

That must have sucked big time. Sorry you had to go through that.

[@MoldyStir-Fry]

My spinal fusion was 27 years ago now, honestly wish we had cable back then because I would've loved to watch this while recovering!

As a stained glass artist, thank you to all of the amazing men who do the hard, hot work that creates beautiful glass that I can work with! ❤❤❤

Glass is a masterpiece, good job to these blowers and engineers.

[@petervaneno4469]

19:57 I like how the furnace was so hot it cracked the camera lense

[@DiagonalCoff33]

huh! i didnt notice that lol.

[@NOACCEPTANCE772]

I legit scoured the comments for anyone else who noticed 😆

[@MrSpock..]

I believe that the lens that cracked was the protective glass that made the image look green. It's similar to the screen in the front of welding helmets.

[@colinhawley8050]

And it broke on beat. Is that a bonus point?

[@FrankBoston]

The bongs they could make....my Lord!

[@whisperpone]

there's no way these people haven't at least made one for "practice"

[@DrBlood-cq2cm]

Bongs are sucked, not blown.

[@weldersandblaster]

HOW ITS MADE! Awesome. Thank you for the fascinating education.

[@AgricultureInsightusa]

Wow, this is fascinating! Glass-making is such an incredible blend of science and artistry, and you've captured it perfectly.

[@frankierzucekjr]

Thqt stained glass looks like fun. The counter tops were very cool too. As a builder, i had no idea they made glass faucets too. That's awesome. I love this show and grew up watching it.

[@DiagonalCoff33]

glass is so cool, it can be used for almost any application, easily recylced and looks pretty!

[@tonhuu6804]

great video! i love how you break down the glass-making process. it's super fascinating, but honestly, i think the environmental impact of glass production doesn't get enough attention. sure, it's amazing stuff, but we should also talk about how it's affecting our planet, don't you think?

[@Mtlmshr]

Glass fabrication is fascinating!

[@jennyi9414]

this was a very interesting and relaxing video

[@idlenexusgaming]

Amazing glass blocks furnace footage. Cost: one expensive camera lens

[@expertgodking9226]

[@cyxx414]

Stumbled upon this series, i love it

[@BarbaraKelley-v4k]

this video is really well done, i appreciate the detail and effort put into showcasing how glass is made. however, i can't help but wonder if we’re focusing too much on this process while there are so many sustainable alternatives out there that deserve some attention too. what do you all think?

[@davidbalog4285]

We need this TV show back or on netflix,Disney or amazon

10/10 on this one! love how long this video is!!!

[@KoldLv]

Amazing. I didn't know glass blowing is this much fun.

[@DrBlood-cq2cm]

Organic chemistry lab in undergrad was my favorite class. The glassware we used was quite elaborate.

[@MassMade121]

really enjoyed this video on how glass is made, it was super informative! but honestly, i have to wonder if glass production is as environmentally friendly as it seems. the energy consumption and waste involved make me think we could be doing better with sustainable materials. what do you all think?

[@histoiresdevoir]

great video, super informative! i love how you broke down the glass-making process. but honestly, i can't help but wonder if the environmental impact of glass production is being overlooked here. it's fascinating, but what about sustainability?

[@annaabney1420]

Omg, that stained glass artist handling the lead with bare hands. Whyyyyyy? 😲

[@dragondawn420]

I think that was the oldest clip in the bunch, because I kept saying the same thing. No way would that be the case for stained glass crafters today.

[@armegeddon11]

Lead cannot be absorbed through the skin, the issue is that you might get it in your mouth or eyes if you touch them while handling it. If you wash your hands thoroughly after handling it, then you will have no trouble.

[@lo2740]

@@dragondawn420 no, lead metal is not toxic by contact with skin. What is mostly very toxic is the lead oxide, and vapors.

[@TriRabbi]

Those glassworkers building the reactor vessels--I wonder what was their career journey. How did they find their employer? How did their employer find them? Did they start out as glass artists doing glasswork as a hobby?

[@inspectorgadget346]

I'm assuming this same technique is used to make laboratory beakers etc.

[@XxXenosxX]

Loved this, thanks

[@chuckbrown2765]

Any doubt these guys have the most effective bongs??

[@davidshlomo6466]

Love this video ❤

[@mp6814]

Thanks! One type of glass was not covered - how is tempered glass made??

[@igrim4777]

Many videos on KZbin about that if you want to watch one. However, that wasn't the only kind they left our. Other notable kinds are automotive glass in general which would include tempered glass as well as laminated, and optical glass for things like telescopes, microscopes and spectacles.

[@CucumbersSC]

Pyrex comes in two varieties, borosilicate and tempered, with tempered being the main one used in consumer products since the 80s. So there is actually tempered glass in there, they just dont talk much about the tempering. I know HiM has an ep on plate glass and Im pretty sure they have one on automotive glass, but I guess they couldnt include every single glass video in this one :)

[@JuarezDerrick]

​@@CucumbersSC I have broke a couple Pyrex dishes over the years and they never break like in this video! They are always tempered and break into millions of pieces so I guess you are correct that they make two different kind!

[@carmelopagara7033]

good for the job boss 🤔🥰👍

maybe im just poor but i had never heard or seen glass faucets until now.

I think “worker” and “employee “ could be replaced with the word “craftsman” .😊

How do they mix it to get the color?

It bothers me that they keep saying “employee” the glass workers are doing an extremely technical job, surely they deserve to be referred to by their occupation and not “another employee”

[@Raigoth]

My intrusive thoughts keep telling me that I want to touch the molten glass because it looks so soft...

[@maiiia_nne6837]

i JUST had a thought, that if u fell into a melted pool of glass then your skin would stick hehe

[@loganjackson814]

What’s really crazy is that it’s still more dense than you are - so you’d land on top and not really sink into it just smack into the hot surface.. same with lava

Glass is a amazing substance as it NOT a solid but over time is a liquid mad eh ?

[@How_To_Drive_a_TARDIS]

That's a myth glass at room temperature is a solid It comes from ancient churches where they would have the bottom side of the window be the thicker part because they couldn't make the glass even

[@-danR]

@@How_To_Drive_a_TARDIS "Glass is actually a liquid" was the original chatroom troIlbait, decades ago. The claim was sprung on knowledgeable n00bs to get them into a rebuttal loop, while other regs chimed in pretending to take sides to keep the victim rolling. And I guess it still works...

[@TNH91]

Indeed, building on what How To Drive a TARDIS wrote, making glass panes earlier was done on a spinning table they put the hot and liquid glass onto. The spinning meant the glass at the outer edges was thicker than the glass closer to the middle. Seeing as it would be less stable to have the thick glass at the top they put them with the thick part down.

[@danclayberger770]

Remove the music

[@jefferyholcombe5189]

Of course they are made in another country where labor is cheap AF!

[@ulawan5]

Of course, it's Canada where it's cheaper to make TV! Other episodes have products with french labels on them, it's very neat

[@bikefarmtaiwan1800]

As with all "How it's made " videos the narrator does not have the basic knowledge to know the difference between a "worker" and a craftsman . Embarrassing really .

[@TNH91]

They probably just work as a voice actor and follow the script they get.

[@lilitLun]

I love glass
