I’ve been a flameworker for 20 years and I never get tired of making or watching vortexes being made. I love to give them away to little kids because the optical illusion never fails to blow their minds. 🥰

[@qualified_dank]

Do you have any vortex marbles for sale?

[@DawsonDude23]

I've been on the torch for about 3 years now, I'm 23 now and have been watching Dustin make things since I was about 17. I got my first torch experience when I was 19 and I was addicted. Dustin you have helped teach me a lot and I can't thank you enough. I'm cranking out frit pipe and sherlock orders now, I never would've imagined I would be in this industry, so thank you for your content. Takoda is one of my other favorite artists, I will definitely be trying to get in on that workshop. Love your work and thanks for what you do on the daily. 🙏💯🔥

[@raulperez1514]

This has by far been my favorite video. As of right now I’m just a collector, but I’m looking to start classes soon. Seeing how much you can accomplish with such a small object is mesmerizing. I look forward to making marbles and pendants to start and watching these videos has really been a great inspiration. Thank you so much.

[@revereglass]

Awesome! Thank you so much! Im rooting for you man!

[@Sonder_Glass]

Been on the torch for about 7 months now, gonna join your school when I get the funds. I appreciate you and any artist that takes the time to help the community. Your videos alone have helped me greatly, thank you 🙏

[@danewilliams4637]

I'm never the one to leave a comment of any kind but dude.. DUDE!!!!!! You have a gift you truly do! Have you ever used any other precious or semi-precious stones, gems, or jewels like you did here with the OPAL? ?OPALS OPAL OAPL !!! THANK YOU

[@LylePatton-yq8ct]

Brother your a insane artist and I love your classes. If anyone hasn't told you which I'm sure you hear all the time but My family and I appreciate the lessons we love glass and love your inventions!

[@revereglass]

Your comment made my day! Thank you so much for the appreciation from you and your family!

[@bennydubzzz1011]

You made everything look so easy. Finished product came out amazing. So much knowledge in this video. Thank you!

[@blownopportunities405]

I'm brand new to torch work, only been doing it a month but I absolutely love it and you have taught me everything. I love your videos. Your pieces are just incredible! Keep it up!

[@mckubisiak]

My friend recently started blowing and they helped me finish just a silly triangle with rods but it was so fun and I can't wait to do some more. I mentioned it you on insta already but really thankful for the easily accessible content here. It makes it much easier to test the waters first and I'm hoping to take some of your classes after I finish my coding program at the end of October. All the best pal!

[@JadeS-ww7sr]

I also make art glass and really love your creation, better than I even expected and the floating opal is perfect. Excellent.

[@xythroice]

Working with glass caught my interest last march as i watch someone in Denver make a Sherlock and i was hooked. Iv been driving a few hours to a studio and taking the 90min classes they have and im about to invest in one of the revere glass starter bundles. Cant return to work for a month due to injury so i have plenty of time to practice marbles. If i had to choose i would pick the marble so i have a visual representation of my goal.

[@TheAdoringFan7]

From down under, keep it real guys! Absolutely love what ya'll are doing for the comunity, much love!

[@dasoup88]

Hey man, I made a vortex marble successfully today! I didn't have any opals but I did my best anyway. I've only been lampworking for a year but thanks to your videos I've finally blew out my own tubes(I thought I couldn't because I didn't have a metal tube tool like you have but I did it without!) I'm so new and without tools but it ain't gonna stop me! I got my torch and kiln and just enough glass to get started. My first pipe is going to be red white and blue but I need a bowlpush to complete it lol oh well. I'll be hitting up mountainglass soon🤣

[@lurker101]

Dustin, many thanks for your sharing & caring. On the torch for 5+ years and loving the journey.

[@unpeepable2677]

Wow, Great video! You have such a calming voice and inspiring tone. I learned a lot in this video. Thank you.

[@cart3r0]

Marble came out looking amazing, really like the opal in the center. It would be great to see another one of these with multiple opals swirling into the vortex as if the vortex was sucking then in like a black hole.

[@alexsanchez7091]

Those opals would be dope to experiment with! Been making a lot of fumed pendants lately, might try one with an opal encased in it.

[@quinlanammons3543]

Awesome work as always! I always have trouble with the NS StarWhite bubbling! Any good tips for that?

[@FingersMacGee]

I’m loving the videos and the Revere classes i have seen a galaxy marble with a shooting star, but I haven’t figured out how to do the shooting star if you know how I love to see a video on that.

[@rutland9550]

thanks for sharing this video amazing work as per usual

[@stope420]

Opals are fun to encase, one of the first things I learned.

[@waxy7104]

This just helped me make my grandfather's Xmas presents!! :)

[@jacksonwilson8638]

I've never worked with opals but would absolutely love to make one of these marbles with one, so stunning

[@BROKERICHGUYog]

I like opals and bandanas and stuff. good work as usual.

[@bigbloo77]

great marble i want to learn and cant wait to start

[@Mbro420]

I won the sherlie!? I came back from vacation and did a rewatch the whole way through! Wow what a surprise

[@nick_klagz]

The vortex marble looks soo cool i would love to be able to add that to my collection if i ever got the chance

[@espadashizno4]

Thanks for answering my question man ❤❤❤!!!! Also I've seen some glass with a confetti effect in it. How is that done?

[@sandrawanilepine2581]

WOW ! It's so fascinating. Thank you very much for sharing this with us. Once i try to make some glass work. But i burned severly my hand with the rod so i never try it again. But i srill love this art.

[@revereglass]

Thank you for watching my videos and for appreciating them. You should try making some glass art once again. Its very satisfying. Let me know if you need help.

[@PaneInTheGlass]

yoo that bandana looks sick! i would love one

[@neesr13]

New subscriber here. So glad I found you. I LOVE opals! Just wish they were my birthstone. I know they are very soft and easily crack so was surprised when you put one into hot glass *gasps*. Now I know how to make some jewelry with opals and feel confident they won't shatter because you left your warm house and went into the snow. Now just need to add another station in my studio for a glass-blowing set-up. Any tips or suggestions? Thanks.

[@jackarmstrong4051]

Thanks again for a sick video! I really need some opals to play with! Would be cool to win those!

[@andrewkogel8463]

Awesome! A little different from how i do them. I like how you did the opal. Would you please do a dichro vortex marble!

[@dubzNA]

you're the man, thanks for what you do

[@eddie2000ad]

I'd love to make a bunch of marbles and smaller pieces and eventually add some of the best ones to larger pieces as my skills improve, the effect of the opal floating in the vortex is fantastic!

[@ItsBubba1016]

im just stepping into the glass blowing adventure but goin at er full tilt opals would help me so much

[@roomonthebroom]

I’ve only ever used opal frit - would love to mess around with some non-fritty ones ✨

[@jonathanyoung8595]

Bandanas are essential while melting, the best way to keep the sweat out of your eyes.

[@adubsdablab]

Dope pearls would love to try them, I love the bandanas and vortex is bad ass

[@vapinhippie7890]

That's so cool how you do that with glass

[@andreasbringemeier3689]

Hey Dustin! Incredible display of skill as usual 0.0 Could you show us how to make a phantom marble?

[@drdabsabunch4935]

A Galaxy Marble demo would be so awesome. Also, if someone wanted to practice do cremation pieces what medium would you recommend they practice with before using human or animal ashes?

[@junkyard3349]

I've never really worked with opals, but they are my birth stone

[@Mbro420]

I've honestly always wondered how this was done! 👏🏻🙌🏻

[@kevensirishcrowly]

I would love to try out some opals I havnt had a chance to play with any in the 6 months I have been on the torch!

[@josephhaugh9661]

Wow, nice! I just had someone ask if I could make them a vortex marble.

[@ChronicChat]

Please do one of the saturn opals from MountainGlass in something! Much love

[@dertythegrower]

Awesome, never saw a floating opal in a marble.

[@MistressJordynRae]

I'm brand new and been dying to try opals in glass

[@idela32]

I'd love to try out using an opal Dustin.

[@Slatt420slime]

Very relaxing

[@amdxxl13]

That looks awesome!! Did you have to pop it in the kiln at all while making the marble? Or does it stay hot enough as long as you keep working it since it's solid?

[@johnsurgener572]

Whoohoo. Dustin. I have been making beads off and on for about 15 years(mostly off) and took a class in Las Vagus awhile back on how to make a glass frog with boro and have bought enough boro rods so now I want to make some glass marbles and some vortex marbles. Dang, you make it look so easy. Also, what do the opals do? I'm am going to try to make a vortex marble very soon, after I buy some opals from Mountain Glass. Thanks for the video and I am definitely going to use Mountain Glass from now on and take a look at some of the online classes. Thanks againl.

[@revereglass]

Awesome. Thank you.

[@halunkarecord]

Hey Dustin I was wondering what is your absolute favorite concepts you love to teach/explain/discuss with people whether it be about the business aspects, the tools or equiptment, the processes and techniques or even the emotions you expirence from glass blowing? Also what is your fravorite thing about glassblowing?

[@toxicifrzn3108]

im an avid dabber and soon will be building my first glassblowing setup, i feel like after i watched your opal encasing video i could do it no issue 🤣

[@johnjevnejr]
