As someone who is new to glassblowing and just started fuming this is prob the most helpful vid on RUclips thank you tim
I’ve been working glass 18 years I really enjoyed your video.
I would love to see more videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I just recently discovered the art of marble making here on RUclips and you are about the 4th or 5th person I have watched and I just wanted to say how awesome your artistic skills are and how much craftsmanship goes into making a special marble. I have always been interested in the glass industry like blowers of glass, colored glass goblets & drinking glasses and fine China makers and appreciative of all the craftsmanship that goes into making such items. And while all of those industries are very interesting, I have now become addicted to watching marble making videos because your niche is more unique and labor intensive and artistic like a fine rare wine from a little known place in the World no one ever heard of before. As Dr. Spock would say; Fascinating.
This is one of the best demo videos on RUclips! Hope you make some more soon.
Great job 👍🏻
Thank you!
Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time..
Nice video 👍👌
I enjoyed your video so much.Im a paint but I want to learn how to do this.Your technique fascinates .The glass Gods blessed me with your video .I'm searching for another 👏👏👏😁
Excellent video, thank you . I’m subscribed!
thank you a lot for this clear demonstration! verry good video! thanks again!
really enjoyed this ! thanks for the demo!
There is something I have noticed in Our Glass eco-system, in the way of decent nature and general attitudelessness purely focused on the forward momentum of the learning, which I have found in no other artforms in My Life, be it music or sports, etc..and your embodiment in this mentality and matter of fact-ed-ness, has Me encourage you to share much more, because personally for me, the delivery allows me to focus AND listen, which isn't usually easy. Thanks for the clear unstained definitive maturity that many lack, and know it makes a difference.
P.S. ignorance question- what, where, and who, do I gather the proper gold and silver for the beginning of my fuming practice? I assume Mountain Glass would have it but that's me assuming and I would like an educated and tried/True answer that might contain some knowledge I wouldn't think to expect or look for in such an important venture.
Take care, "subscribed" and will share and pressed "like" button.
Thank you for the knowledge... I am looking forward to making my next marble.
Fantastic demo, I’ll try the pattern soon!
Very cool, thank you. Hope to see more.
Thats so beautiful, havent had anyluck with tube marbles but im gettin there lol
Sweet technique and marble
Thank you for sharing 😄 I just got a redmax not too long ago and I really love lampworking
Fantastic demo marble...I learnt a lot......:)
Thanks Neill! Great to hear!
You might want to check out the Skull Marble demo too! ruclips.net/video/gqFhY2Ppp0E/видео.html
Great demo thanks!
So in the beginning of the video with the flared open tube, putting the designs I was thinking " hey that's great, I think I could handle that" THEN you got to the dot stack portion of the marble and I have to tell ya..... you're one tough act to follow. Your knowledge of color combinations and technique really made that look easy. I'm goin to attempt something similar tonight when I get home and I can only hope it looks 1/2 as good at this. Excellent work
That was fascinating!
I really enjoy watching your tutorials. It's one I keep Coming back to watch, I hope to see more in the future 🙏❤️🤙🔥
Stunning!
Great video, I took your class at franzs' forever ago on this and the phantom worm lol loved it then too! Good job brudda!
That’s some really amazing looking work! I really enjoyed watching this demonstration.
I've wanted to do this for years thank you for the filtering
For the tenth time to watch I love the video. Please keep them coming. Nice job and I aspire to make that marble.
Tysm for this video. I think it's gonna help me a lot
This is so awesome🤘
Bring the show back mannn
Cheers man for that sharing.....
Nice! Thanks for sharing. I learned to make vortex marbles from your DVD many years back. It's still the most influential glass video I've ever watched.
Thanks man! That's great to hear! I really appreciate it.
I just found your videos, thank you for sharing your information!
I have worked in soft glass for a decade, now wanting to try Boro. Your videos are so helpful!
My Mega Minor will not get the glass hot enough, can you recommend a torch that can do both?
Thank you again!
Tracy
What dvd is it? I Def need something like that
super cool! i`d love to be able making this kind of stuff, just dont have the time, the money and knowledge to. grat work pal
beautiful
Thanks buddy cheers Ricky 🙏🔥🥂
Thank you so much for this great video!
Good 👍
Great video btw very well explained!
First off, I love the format of talking and watching the video. Explanations for us beginners was awesome. I had a question tho. How di you clsoe the small tube end so you could just pop off the closure point?
Nicely done. My dot stacks turn into funky stupid looking smears no matter what I do. Medium or small flame…with or without compressed air and middle or back of the flame. Same problem when imploding fume or striking colors. I always seem to cook them to death in the process of shaping.
This is amazing
Try this with scalloped tubing with no or just a few dots or lines
I love fuming with gold and silver and it looks like the green on a flys butt
This is awesome Tim! Thank you so much for this. Also... Your eyebrows look much nicer now :)
What? You're not into the cyclops look? lol
The #MARBLEHEAD Show lol
The end product should have been presented in 4 panel with zoom in slow mo. So to Marvel at the marble. ❤
Awesome demo. I’ve been watching this a couple times over the past months waiting for my skills to catch up. Quick question, when your doing the condensing part does the flame type matter oxy or reducing? You get it pretty hot, I’m guessing the fume doesn’t really burn out or pale once it’s in there? Thanks for the upload!
Correct... It's pretty much a oxy flame
awesome you rock pleaseee moreee!!
My sister made and bought marbles on ebay, when she past away, I inherited her entire Marble collection. Some are are signed by the makers.
That is wonderful that you loved what your sister did, it's a beautiful talent to have. Close friend of mine passed last year and the glass beads were her talent and I inherited alot of her beads. The glass is a beautiful thing
thanks this was great.
The lack of a shot of the finished marble at the end killed me 😭
i love amber purple
I think its pure genius to use the fume gold behind the cobalt trans glass, to reflect thru the clear, wow, what makes the phantom lines in the clear is itin the clear glass or reflected from below?, intriguing , what other tricks do you know for kiln work glass, ha, mk
I love the intro song bro :D
I really enjoy it as well. We need a extended version lol
I keep having it implode too soon 😂 but like half are nice
nice tap put mines made out of a big soft glass bowl i blew in beeville texas
Thank you very much for this lesson!! P.S. If you are "behind the driver's seat" you are in the back seat. You want to drive, you want to be IN the driver's seat!! yes?
thank you!
No problem! Thanks for watching!
Nice video..... why did you stop making these videos ? RUclips is a marathon not a sprint, just keep doing it.
I hear you. I no longer have access to video editing equipment... hope to get some new gear one of these days.
thanks man
Damn cool marble brother
learning inside out work .... hope you like burning your hand in the torch lol but i have a baracuda so its to smalll
i want a herby 40mm are you still using the same torch ?
More, more, more, MOOOOOORE! Please and thank you! Great video, helped me a lot!
Thanks! More is on the way! :)
Are you on other social media? FB, IG, ect...
Yes. @TimKeyzers on IG and just Tim Keyzers on fb
Can use an ear plug to plug off the blow tube instead of closing it with heat. Its just faster.
butterscotch i think works with cobalt too its been a whiel
what do you do with your waste glass bits?
nice
I just discovered this video. Are you still around to answer questions. I have one.
Hi I make ceramics lustered, n i luster Xmas glass bulbs, of blanks,of clear glass n lacquer the insides, white, but now I think I should be working both sides, inside n outside, ha. i think, maybe . the reason you don't always get the gold best results is because as u add the clear over the fiume gold over cobalt, you are probably burning off the thin gold coat. Did u say the phantom lines swirls are the gold n silver? Cool. Do u trap the golf fume in the tube?, I wonder what type of results you can get w dots, on stacked up, n kiln fired glass sheet small circles l w clear on top? Cold work n kiln fired. Have any ideas on cold work stacked circles, seems like I'd need to do hot dots, n fume it, have u tried cobalt luster fumed inside?is it possible To get the desired phantom result in cold kiln work?have ever made cupped, earrings mk, I've made a million pieces n now retired,
Quick question. Can you put a fish hook inside a pendant. I have an idea that I am looking into
Nice
i like 10 mill tube instead of pulling points
I'm sitting on the couch with my dog and I have tears in my eyes because u are missing your dog.... So sad to know that we have to say godbye one day.
💕
What would a marble like this cost? Retail
Do you make small beads like (12mm)? or 10mm??
do you have a gallery?
no
If I make marbles can I let them cook and take them to a kiln later at like a community college free kiln fire day?
do you still buy o2?
How do you not burn away all the fumes???
Practice is my best advice. There are so many subtle variables that lead to the fuming not burning off - Surface temp before applying fuming, flame settings, where the metal is placed in the flame, timing, what the flame is allowed to hit, how you apply the clear over the fume, and the mood of the glass gods (and the list goes on).... Getting through the process as many times as possible is my best advice.
I wish you would have shown the fuming parts. I don't understand why you went off camera to do the fuming
6:00 - 6:05 shows gold fume... 6:11 - 6:15 shows silver fume....
@@timothykeyzers4966 no he's using a clear rod. As soon as he starts to fume he goes off camera. Re-watch that part.
@@timothykeyzers4966 unless you don't actually touch the glass with the rod while you're fuming. Well, don't I feel stupid lol.. It's in the name "fume" is like a vapor. I get it now... Sorry I second guessed you Tim.
@@jsinprtn29 The gold and silver is on the tip of the clear rods. when the tip of the clear rod is put into the flame it transfers the gold or silver fume vapors to the tube... It happens really quickly - and the video captures it all... alls that is happening off camera is me picking up and putting down the glass rod that has the metal attached.
@@timothykeyzers4966 yea I figured that out the 3rd time watching it. I saw the fumes and it clicked in my brain.. That's why it's called fuming,, duh..you have to forgive me I am a blonde so I'm prone to things going over my head. Thank you for taking the time to explain it to me. You do awesome work, BTW!!
😬
What’s the name of the song
i think i missed the part where you did the fuming okay i cuaght it
So uh... how is metal fuming harmful? Pretty sure silver and gold are completely inert in the human body.
white norstar is hard for me to not bubble
nor star is the best frit and color rod
that alcohol puts on the wieghtfor sure ......so can being junky
i use ear plugs to pug my points
I would love to subscribe but the video output is very very low
I’m several years late to the glass game, but here is my question. Who made what colors? I need to know so I don’t spend hours online, then blow my glass budget and still don’t have the right colors
