Hello, I'm Matt Jasa. If you are interested in learning about Glass blowing or Lamp working my channel offers a lot of advice on the techniques, tools, and general safety. Make Artistic pieces (animals, marbles, pendants), scientific items, and blown functional glass. Put your mind to it and with practice you can make anything!
Some more specific projects you might find on this channel are Glass Chain Necklaces, Glass Pendants, Marbles, Magnifying Glasses, Glass on Glass Fittings ( GonG ) and Blown Spheres. I also use small explosives from time to time for scientific tests; however these eplosive projects should never be attempted at home, safety is my highest precaution! Never attempt glass blowing without proper ventilation and eye protection.
Check out my videos on setting up your glass blowing torch along with how to adjust for the right flames; such as neutral, oxidizing and reducing flame before you begin. Learn how to cut, clean and prepare your glass for future projects.
Never store your propane in-doors, Always keep propane tanks outside! Propane gas is heavier then air, if a leak occurs it will begin to pool and fill a closed room or basement which can lead to an explosion.
If you have any questions about glass blowing, lamp working, or this video please leave them in the comment section down below. I may not respond immediately as I'm mostly busy in the glass shop but I'll get to it as soon as I can. If I don't respond to your question I might have missed it; please re-comment the question on the relative video.
Please join me in this exciting journey to see what can be done with glass. I create these videos to enrich others in the process; teach them to create their own works, but also for everyone else to enjoy the unique perspective and spectacular show that science/nature can provide.
I put a lot of work and time into each video. Most projects require 1 to 2 hours to complete in the shop and then several more editing the footage while adding voice-over. I've worked on some videos well through the night and into the next morning. So help me bring glass blowing and lamp working to others; please share this video on your social feed, be apart of the awesome journey.
Remember to turn on notifications for my channel after you subscribe so it alerts you of the next video.

I've rarely seen a video where the craft is explained so nicely
Man, I was feeling anxious, binge watching "how it's made" videos and I ended up watching this one. The way you speak and narrate the process is so soothing. For 15 minutes I felt like everything's gonna be ok. Thank you.
Adventurine is a rock, not a mineral.
As a layperson who finds glass and especially marbles very interesting, thank you for this video! I appreciate your thorough yet relaxed explanations. I learned a lot! Subscribed!
I have watched this over 10 times, thank you for explaining everything so clearly and in an informative way.
I don’t do glass blowing, I just saw a video that peaked my interest in vortex marbles, but this is amazing! You sounded so unsure of yourself the whole time but then then end result was phenomenal!
I have one of these! My niece was dating a guy that did glass stuff, and he contributed one for a Christmas exchange. It does look bigger inside than the marble really is! It is SO cool!!!
Where do you get that glass chain he has on?
" I'll put it in the kiln where it hopefully won't explode" ---- STORY OF MY LIFE ! excellent video, the narration is right to the point and easy to understand. I've been getting a mystery swirl in my lens each and every time, haven't figured out why but I'm going to try your method and see if that puts a stop to it
That intro never gets old. It’s so dope lol
Hi Matt you do a pretty good job on your videos no stupid music drowning your voice out as you explain why you are doing what you are doing and it is nice that you show all the results of each step too with a close up when you can.
Nice. Cool to see different techniques, everyone has a different ways to complete a project.
Love your vids Matt, thanks for sharing the knowledge.
We need more of you in the community knowledge is power!
it looks like it's deeper than it is. awesome.
Lots of real helpful stuff in here thanks
First video i have seen that actually explains how to make these. Thank you. I been so curious I how these are made.
Very nice! Thank you for mentioning that my 'bead' torch - Bethleham Alpha - will achieve this! I'm flabbergasted. OK, when I can get up the nerve I will just try it realizing I will make lots of mistakes and eventually I'll get it. WooHoo .........
Beautiful.
Love the videos. As a beginner i love the small comments made during the process. ie. where your holding the marble to thte flame and why you connect the punty out of the flame. Thanks for your all your work
