Marcus Barnes Glass - Pulling a Point

Today I decided tto make an introduction video and demonstrate a simple Flameworking technique. A point is a piece of tubing with one end pulled out into a handle with a hole in the end to introduce air. the other end is sealed.
This piece of glass is a great practice exercise, and is also an efficient way to produce many hollow forms.
Thanks for watching!

Your fundamental understanding of traditional glasswork and your easy narration, over top of a relaxing bit of music, all make for a brilliantly produced video. The Tools in your studio are magnificent, and thank you for showing some class.
