Would you please make another video showing how to detach the punty-rod from the lace work and attach a smaller rod or a different colored rod to it? Anything else you think useful would be wonderful too.
@finefollyglassworks I will but it will be awhile as it is too cold out. But, since I am using boro COE 33 the temporary attachments are just cold seals. A tap of the rod will break the seal. I think I show cold seals on one or two of my videos. Remind me in a month if you still want another video.
your right its a dying art form, I am glad to see you and Joe keeping it alive!-) great video and congrats to your daughter for excellent camera work!-)
GREAT TUTORIAL!!! i couldn't do it so far, tried every way i know to hold the rods, but it just didn't look right. now i will try the way you show, i already love the way you use your left hand its much more comfortable for me. what you show, coupled with what Crazy4Glass (joe) showed - i think i'll be able to do it finally. and i need it badly. it's very important for the light fixtures i want to make. it's what i got into hot glass for, actualy... THANKS
This is a skill that takes a lot of practice. I'm sure you will be making nice loops stitches in no time. I'm glad you have an interest in spun glass work.

Wonderful intro to this lost artform. I'm grateful to see it. I can imagine a lot of applications, Stands for small sculpture being one.

Nice video, I like the camera angle on this one. It would be cool if you added a diddy filter for the flare.
The videos are great.

Thanks! I am using a didymium filter on the camera. It's the lens out of an old pair of glasses. :-)

i understand why it went "out of favour" as you say,
because as an artistic medium it was abused for years,
the result were as kitsch as the crochet it was named after...
but its great as a texture, and thrilling as
a light defuser, and that's way i need to master it.
2 glassblowers i know here brough some
spun-glass expert workers from Romania
to their studios, they make ALL the spun-glass light defusers in Israel. its insane!

I would like to see some of those defusers. Make a video :-) That could turn out to be a great item to make around here.
