    Ya know…. I love your videos but is odd that you put out silent video and call yourself “audioglass”.
    Very cool to watch you work!

    Thanks. most of the videos have an awful furnace roar. there are 3 furnaces and the sound of the furnace fans has a very poor sound proofing. so i take out the audio.

    maybe i should put some music to them?

    That was amazing, what is the final color of the swan? I put this in my favorates! You should list this at group!

    It’s all good! You do what you what and I will just enjoy the show. I just thought it was funny, given your name. It is exciting to see the explosion of glass working videos on youtube. I better get busy!

  9. artettina on March 27th, 2007 3:17 am

    cool.. I have a hollow glass swan that you could fill with a liquid from a cavity its back and the water pressure would keep the head filled with water.. I have 3 of those.

    Wow… it gave me the feeling as if I was a witness of the birth of a Swan… Fantastic!!!

    That is fantastic, you have to keep an art of motion the whole time, impressive!

    damn! I need to get myself into a hot shop and do some offhand work! that is incredible! I am jealous of the working time you get, my glass only gives me a few seconds at a time! what is the COE of the glass used in offhand? and does color chemistry ever create the same problems of differing viscosities within the same piece, or are the temperatures of the process low enough to stay better balanced in terms of viscosity?

    I love all the videos you’ve posted. I’m totally envious of the working time you’ve got with that cobalt blue!

    I dig the silence. There are so many glass videos with “cool” music that’s all about being cool and not about the glass. You guys are gettin’ it done with style.

  18. audioglass on October 1st, 2008 7:25 pm

    Thanks for the comment. I’m glad you like the videos. We should get some more videos made. We make some pretty cool stuff sometimes. but usually there is no one around to video it!

    Wow, amazing work!
    I’ve seen someone blow some glass and turn it into a bird, which I now have in my room (the tip of the back of it broke, unfortunatly), but glasswork looks amazing!
    And you did it so fast! I’m envious.

    You’d make me want to get into doing that sometime, haha, I don’t think there are any workshops for such things around here though.

    how long have you been doing this for?

  21. habby on March 12th, 2009 8:12 pm

    I have only been doing this for the last five years and I have got dozens of beautiful ornaments around the house and it makes me an honest income from something that makes me happy !
