Such a pleasure to watch craftsmen at work.

[@morganquillen3304]

i like how the artist was highlighted and not just the work. go bill!

[@catman72]

I was fortunate enough to meet him and see him work, he is everything they said in this video, and a charming person as well. he is amazingly talented yet very modest. a very rare combination... i'm saving some pieces he made and wanted to throw away. :-)

[@ricardodesotorodriguez3503]

I've had the immense pleasure of seeing Mr. Bill develop from a humble apprentice (though he had vast experience at lamp-work) at the beginnings of the NYEGW in NOHO) to see him flower into a Master Glassblaster, highly appreciated by his peers and head honcho at CMOG's studio. As luck would have it... had the chance to catch up with him a couple of years back while researching Andalucian glass at Corning. He's been the only solo artist practitioner I've known in this sport known for teamwork and choreography. Always been at it... since the start!

[@valken666]

Maybe his ego stops him from working in groups? Bet he would create even more amazing works if in groups.

[@bethcummingsdawson3187]

Ricardo de Soto bravo to you Sir.

[@katanyajason3316]

@@valken666 Ego?? If you watch his videos as we'll as the way he interacts with others you will see that he is far from being egotistical. He also has no issues pointing out where he has screwed up in a piece. No, wishing to work alone has nothing to do with ego. In fact, ego often needs a bunch of followers and people to order around in order to feel superior.

[@bethcummingsdawson3187]

He's thoughtful enough to speak in layman's terms so that the rest of US can connect & hopefully gain interest in the artistry n magic of glass arts

[@hello77711]

William makes it look so easy. True Master!! Wow.

[@poelgeestglass]

I just visit this page from time to time, just to get my feet on the ground. Bill is just amazingly good, and a friendly guy too. Highly respected in my book.

[@monstercommenter9587]

I recently started working with glass with a friend of mine and I have to say that it is ADDICTING! I would love to work with somebody that knows the tricks of the trade to actually be able to make something beautiful.

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Come take a class at The Studio: www.cmog.org/glassmaking/studio/classes There are classes for all levels and techniques.

[@wleon4068]

Seems like a nice fella and a very accomplished glass blower.

[@urs-kumikawabata3312]

I love it perfectly created dessign

[@TaylorYarick]

0:33 what a beautiful bong

[@ramanglass544]

@MrEnsignharry this is not borosilicate, this is spruce pine. borosilicate is lampworking glass, that is extremely inefficient to work at a furnace

[@artatihafid8448]

You brilliant, i liked. thanks por video

[@tapiopelkonen2981]

How do you recognize an excellent artist? He'll tell you.

[@Kanathil66]

Must.... Stop.... Watching... Glass videos!!!

[@daniellegutierrez6618]

I remember my father doing this, creating glass arts for a living 😞

[@DionneCalgary]

Really awesome!

[@KristaAMartin100]

That is some great glass and those are some very nice brass percision molds. Maybe lead diamonds in the glass too?

[@londonglassblowing]

Hi guys. Take a look at our glassblowing channel! We have plenty of making videos filmed at Peter Layton's studio in London. A really fantastic studio to be part of, and the team are great fun to film, as they let me get right in amongst all the action! Anyway, hope you enjoy them, and if there's anything in particular you'd like to see, then please send a comment. Always happy to take requests! :-)

[@salrazack7481]

amazing!

[@Cellwilltobe]

a simple "he is the guy with glasses right over there blowing glass" would have done thanks.

[@MrEnsignharry]

@reznor07 he is working glass its borosilicate, i know cause i asked him. I work at the Corning museum but im not an artist. I am a huge fan of glass art and have met a few of my favorites, if you are an expert in the field where can i go to see your work?

[@Fireworxs2012]

If there was one Person on this Planet that I could choose to work with, it would be Bill Gudenrath...He's simply the most advanced glass worker of our time...

[@Rossysan1]

Fantasztikus!

[@mcgreave87]

who's glass is he holding there at the end?

[@khenrabgyatsho2260]

wow so Amazing

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Thanks for watching!

[@bboysnack]

the reason is because of the golden ratio , the circumference of the smaller circle times (1+(sqrt5))/2 and then when it come to the middle part same thing

[@MadSativa]

yes yes it is also makes it com alive when in motion

[@Dally_Sparkles]

wow skillz

[@artistwithsomepiano]

the only reason i clicked on this vid is because i thought the screen cap was him making one haha!

[@MasterAlchemist1]

Where can one find the entire installment on Mr. Gudenrath?

[@ascoltaevaporazione]

BAH! where is the artist?

[@davnroxie]

Way too short. That guy is great

[@rodrigolala3931]

wow looking nice

[@52sgzara]

Necesito saber si dan cursos de dos o tres meses para aprender técnicas diferentes de fusing De no ser así a donde me puedo dirigir para a prender

[@corningmuseumofglass]

We don't currently have month-long classes, but we do have week-long intensive glassmaking courses at The Studio: www.cmog.org/glassmaking/studio/classes. Thanks for watching!

[@TheGnurgen]

Gets a bit pretentious imo. Not that he is not great, but they do lay it on pretty thick.

[@Miawiwi]

hermoso!

[@comfortouch]

OMG Totally! I was thinking that he was making a bong in the video. ;P

[@AlexFaustinoOfilhodeDeus]

Não tem matéria prima é a utilidade do trabalho gravado no silício. Guardamos isso até o fim de nossas vidas.O capital volta a circular depois que compramos essas utilidade que não e se destrói na casa dos particulares.

[@phuturephunk]

It probably would have been better to point out to him that limestone is a pretty common ingredient (along with sand) in making glass rather than just insulting him. Then maybe he'd learn something.

[@SuperMusicman1975]

WOULD LOVE CLASSES FOR MY DAUGHTER ......................Do you teach??

[@corningmuseumofglass]

Hi SuperMusicman1975, check out our listing of glassmaking classes at The Studio here www.cmog.org/glassmaking/studio/classes

[@SuperMusicman1975]

Corning Museum of Glass you guys are amazing wow

[@dipankardas1760]

Seeing the dislikes, I am confirmed, some people are born haters from mothers womb.

[@b4ssfunk3d]

me too

[@wgoldenny]

WOW

[@nameless-en4qc]

When glass plates, cups and etc. break I would be shrugging but if it broke by the makers of the glass they would be like: OH MY GLASSSSSSSS

[@toobian2]

@reznor07 looks like glass to me

[@TheAsianVids]

WHat's that?

[@4d616c65737469636b]

no, it is obviously just a collection of subatomic particles.

[@syLntscream]

buddy should make bongs. hed make stacks

[@DanIsDaMan12]

Not as many people appreciate bongs for their art or design, the big scene is mostly on functionality and cost efficiency. So if he made bongs, he would probably be making a lot of really lame but high costing glass tubes which would not attract many stoners. They would have wonderful art and design but, like i said, would also lack functionality of the percs and diffusers that any cut-rate bong designer can make (which is what i would buy).

[@stevemurdock7540]

More working, less talking...

[@gabobo123]

I would buy a recycler off him so fast.

[@skull9111]

i thought he was gonna be making bongs

[@Layiloe]

@reznor07 i don't see the difference

[@idratherbeanonymous]

Well I'm the average joe off the street that likes to deal in technicalities, I can say with some doubt that this is clear and fragile, and therefore glass enough to be called glass.

[@wordlesess23]

if it falls and shattered its a fukin glass

[@giaitri-kt8uf]

sư phụ qua Vietnam mở lớp học

[@rumbleshakes]

For some reason I feel like the people talking are pompous.

[@thepaperstaggering]

+Rumble Shakes I got that impression, too. Glass snobs, I guess.

[@bethcummingsdawson3187]

Rumble Shakes care to see the bigger picture

[@MrFartaholic1]

wow I now have a new apreciation for cups, that guy must get really pissed when someone accidentally breaks a glass,i would too

[@louissullivanartist]

Actually glass gets broken all the time in a glass studio. He is so good that he had to break a lot of it. You have to do that to become a glass master. Bill wouldn't even shrug. It is effortless for him.

[@81Kush]

thought it was a bong.....

[@Random2184]

close enough, he didn't say 100% glass

[@w98forever]

@420wasian thats what brought me here lmao

[@mitchelllee75]

now thats a $300 dollar martini glass. lol

[@jayckal]

But its still glass...just that its semi-glass

[@420wasian]

This guy can prob make a AWESOME BONG...just sayin!

[@PhilthyMr]

Both dudes talking are tools for each other

[@0041328543061]

.

[@_bReAd-]

kind of ironic when they portray him as a very experienced and learned person and then he says "upside down, horizontally and vertically" little does he know that the upside down he is talking about is on the veritcal axis XD

[@JimnyRicardo]

[@JoseVga]

It's okay cause is not the same position. You see that one side is wider than the other. It's not about axis as you say...

[@_bReAd-]

weeaboo dp gets their opinion discarded

[@blueberry4739]

They said he is experienced and learned because he makes great art and has been for a long time, not because he has any kind of education in english. Can you make glass like him?

[@_bReAd-]

catherine baldwin horizontal and vertical are basic knowledge, similar to left and right... you dont need to be an english master to know up from down. its funny bcz he says one sentence and it completely goes against what the narrators were saying XD

[@expectro9]

tu compro no paraguai seu mintiroso tu mexeu com massinha

[@mansondevil33]

Lol there must be so many disappointed stoners watching this video.

[@thelairdmc]

Pay particular attention to spelling lessons, trust me.

[@MuhammadRizky-kg2vi]

wwwwwe

[@nestlucky2318]

Guys why do you edit so much your taking the fun of watching the glass be shaped and formed instead you have a bunch of unnecessary lectures and stuff, please do less editing
