That tip to angle the rods slightly to keep it on center is actually pretty clutch. This cane pulling technique would otherwise get messy fast with uneven pulls. I normally do it the traditional soft glass way with a big even heat and one pull while twisting, I get about 70% consistent usable/desirable diameter
Nice technique for making larger canes! Optic mold method I use and teach does smaller. But tell me I did NOT see you holding extra glass rod with a HOT end IN YOUR MOUTH! 😱😂🔥 I know you’re careful, but remember who’s watching you. I’d hate for an inexperienced worker to notice and think that’s ok. That’s a good way to burn a shoulder or something.
dude, amazing demo!
Man your videos are so helpful you are so clean to you are talented
Thank you!👍
Phenomenal tutorial!
I wish your videos got more traction to encourage you to make more. They’re very good!

Video too dark. But thanks for the help!
Hey bro cool video! Did you attach the clear side of one paddle to the coloured side of the other paddle?
I believe that encasement in clear on both sides helps with the pattern, I think. I’m pretty new to lampworking.
I love the aesthetic of your paddle! If you don't mind my asking, where did you get it from?
I got it from mountain glass
The whole video is Dark WTF
It has a lens so the flame hitting the glass doesnt cause damage to your eyes
