  • hi, im making glass beads for my art n design college project - why do you sort of dip it in and out of the flame alot? :)

  • @burgerfanful thanks for your question. i dip it in and out as a way to control the heat. if i left it in all the time, it would be come too molten and wouldn't hold it's disc shape well. also at the end, it is a way of flame annealing the bead before putting it into the kiln.

  • I think it's time for another video Kerri:-)

  • I was thinking the same thing this morning!

  • Hi there, Is that gas which you are using? I'm sorry but I'm very new in the making of glass beads :-)

  • Are you using soft glass or hard glass here? I am a new bead maker and I've made about 15 beads with hard glass. I have yet to try using soft glass, but I notice I have a hard time getting the hard glass completely around the mandrill.

  • I thought beads were round.............

  • 3:25 byeeeeeeeeeeeee^^

    i make too glass beads, but i'm better xD no we cant say better, the most beads are good... ^^

  • You would like to meet Asian bride *lushfmlk.info*

  • Hi I am brand new. What do I need to start? I looked at some torches and they can go up to hundreds !! What would you say to a new person that they needed to try this craft? Glass and everything. Thank you so much
