Bubble Ball Paperweight

[@billiedoring9547]

This is an example of how these type videos should be done! No annoying loud rock music, or rolling print. But instead we get a clear, concise, pleasant and a very informative narration. Well done!

The work that is involved into making them is amazing. The narrating with the captions are very helpful because the naming of tools and actions. Thanks.

When my teacher said we were making paperweights, I was dissapointed. I wanted to blow a christmas ornament or something... After that first class, I can see why we started with this. The paperweights we did were much simpler than this and still incredibly hard to do. It's a shock when that first blast of heat hits your arm. Just getting glass out of the crucible is quite a challenge to overcome.. Thanks for the video. It's inspirational. :)

The clear glass dip at 2:25 is the best I've ever seen.

We had 2 thick glass bowls with perfectly spaced and sized bubbles in them, from say the age of 5, I always wondered how it was done, well 44 years later, I just youtube'd it and now have the answer. thank you :)

Wondering if you have any other childhood wonderings that are unanswered. Or, what other wonders from days of old have you also answered as an adult? Wondering is fun!

A descoberta desse canal aqui no youtube pra mim, foi um grande achado dentre tanta bobagem que andam produzindo. Adoro os vídeos que são postados. Revejo todos os dias.

Thanks for watching, Rodrigo!

Thanks for sharing your experience with new Technics and I will be making some myself.

[@patrickhayes3099]

I did not wonder about bubbles, rather I assumed it was done with a small pipe, bubbles manually placed. Granted, that assumption was made 40 years ago. The truth learned today that is so much easier. No less amazing.
