Dichroic Boro Marble - Tuffnell Glass

[@jonesuk123]

Another great video. Great explanation of how boro works. Looking forward to trying this. Thanks Martin

When you cut off a piece of rod in the flame it can produce little bubbles or issues in the glass so its best to pull off that trash end before working with it again. Especially with marbles you want to make sure you are always working with clean and clear glass.

Very true, thank you for your comment but in this video it didn't cause any bubbles so i carried on with the marble.

@@TeresaBlofeld hey, idk why the comments messed up that was actually a reply to the Russian comment asking why lampworkers pull off the end of rods so much.

@@TeresaBlofeld so this is you tho? This midrange is running on a 10lpm oxy con ya? I have been running a alpha with 10lpm and it's a real pain doing marbles over about an inch so trying to find the biggest flame I can, how big of a boro marble do you think could be comfortably made with this setup?

Why doesn’t the dichroic turn to ash inside the molten glass? Mine did, after it was encased.

[@Tuffnellglass]

Hi Derick, you can not touch the dichroic with the flame at all otherwise it burns it off, you have to heat the encasing glass and put it over the dichroic surface without hitting the dichroic with the flame , takes a little practice . There are also certain colours that wok better and colours that do burn off easily.

Для чого всі лампворкери, відщипують перший розплавлений шматочок скла, та викидають його? Чим та чому, він не влаштовує лампворкерів?
