You need one filled with bathroom cleaner to keep that bathroom tidy. Difference of stoppers — Multi-stoppers are manufactured of red silicone rubber and green neoprene. The rings are cut from the same stopper, each ring fitting perfectly inside the next. This allows for vacuum tight fit for all openings within stopper size range.
Ideally suited for glass working operations and chemistry labs. These stoppers are resistant to hot oils, fuels, oxidizing chemicals, sodium hydroxide and ozone. Multi stoppers made from green neoprene rubber have better aging characteristics than those of natural black rubber and are resistant to oils, solvents, ozones and hydrocarbons.
How it works: the object is placed in the graphite chamber, heated with a torch, and then covered by a molten mass of clear glass. Using the hose with mouthpiece, the artist becomes the vacuum pump, sucking through the hose to pull clear glass around the object being encased.
Titanium Pen by a blower — This used to sign a blowers art. The glass must be wet to write with the piece of metal. It leaves a mirror like signature when used properly. Torch explanation by a blower — This is the thing that gives us the fire and allows us to melt the glass. There are tons of torches out there. First a blower in this industry needs a bench top torch, then a great addition is a hand torch for getting in all the places you can not get to with a bench torch. Hand Torch — This is a little smaller torch a blower uses while they are holding the torch in their hand.
Hense the name hand torch. Standard Tweezers by a blower — These are used for grabbing bits of glass whether molting or hard. Peter Tweezers by a blower — These tweezers are great for making loops and holes for pendants, vessels and buttons. To make loops and holes: place a small amount of glass shaped like a tall bump at the desired location.
Heat up just the bump to just shy of it melting down. Quickly place the points of the tweezers to the center of the heated bump and squeeze together. As soon as the tips touch, move the handle back and forth a couple of times in a motion that makes the points rotate in the center of the hole.
This motion breaks apart the fine web that would otherwise bridge across the middle of the hole. Remove the plyers and reheat the glass area making up the hole, being careful not to melt the hole closed.
Again place the tweezers in the hole and stretch out the hole to the desired size and shape. To make a large loop, simply start with a larger bump of glass.
You may also need to reheat more than one time. For a wider loop, start with a bump that is slightly oval shaped at its base. Squeezer Tweezers by a blower — These are used to open holes further without smashing the glass, but stretching it out rather. Hemostat Tweezers by a blower — These are used to grab marbles. Vermiculite by a blower — This stuff is used to let the glass cool slower than sitting in the air.
This is for say small marbles that you do not want to anneal in the kiln. You can get away with this method of annealing, but in a kiln is best. Glass Blowing Tools of the Trade.
