I have always wanted to blow glass. I tried it a couple of times but soon realized that the learning curve was way too great. And I can achieve most of what I really want to create with kiln forming and lampworking. But watching glass blowing is so awesome…over at eHow.com I have found a number of instructional glass blowing videos and thought I’d share them with you. The videos are from Third Degree Glass Factory, a place I’ve written about in past postings. All of the same principals apply since working hot glass is working hot glass. You may actually hear something that triggers a thought process related to lampworking. Ir see something that inspires and idea for a kiln forming project. Or you may just absolutely enjoy just watching the glass blowing process.
