Makes sense, seeing what they're cutting in the beginning just looks like molten glass that's been poured out and it folds layers on top of each other. Also explains why they weren't too careful with any waste chipping, as they'll just throw it all back into a furnace later and remelt it.

I know that third world safety standards...aren't, but watching those two at the beginning with the foot dicer 9000 wearing simple masks and woven gloves made me very uncomfortable. Even the ones wearing respirators almost certainly don't have easy access to replacement filters. I presume they spend their depressingly short lives pulling glass out of their skin and eyes and coughing. I respect their work ethic, but holy hell. You would probably have a longer life expectancy in a smallpox factory.
Don't worry - the respirators are using fake 3M filters they've been making in China for years. I'm sure they'll be fine (google fake 3M filters if you to read some real-life horror stories).
To answer both of your questions. The wheel is just a grinder, not a cutter. So they may lose a few mm of skin if they touch the wheel too hard. Vision safety is the cooler explanation of the two. What it is, is that they are AAAAAASHIN. So they have built in safety squints. So, not nearly as unsafe, as one might think.
It be just as cool watching them heat and pouring the glass on the ground (cause we all know it’s man made dyed glass, not volcanic. If it was natural they’d scoop up all of the scraps and sell it for huge money. Still pretty neat.
So why not pour it into round molds ? or at least something in the general shape of the finished product. It would save countless hours of work and waste.
@@johnwick-ii6il That would ruin the patterning. What you are describing is also made for far lower prices and is mot usually as impressive to look at.

how about the glass dust seeping in the skin and lungs. Masks will only block some of the dust. All over the clothes. Then the hand close to the abrasive disk. Scary
Sorry, this is man made slag glass, not real volcanic glass. It is still besutiful and takes skill to make, though. Real red obsidian would be rusty tones and opaque because it would be colored with iron oxide, where as vibrant translucent reds require rarer elements like gold. That's why red glass is more expansive than other colors of glass.
😆😆I knew it! Knapping IS easier with power tools. Our ancestors would have been able to make much better projectile points, but NO, they insisted on doing everything by hand🤣🤣🤣
I notice they’re wearing FPM PPE the risk from dust/silica must be really high. And I bet there is much health and Safety regulations to protect them and their lives.
Everything about this video is a surprize I didn't that volcanic glass came in such big sizes, far less that there is enough to supply an entire industry. On a personal level I have worked with grinders etc. and the scream they give off is horrendous fortunately that is something we do not get from your video. they must also be itchy constantly with all that glass dust.
It's not real volcanic glass. It's manmade slag meant to mimic the consistency of obsidian, but in more vivid colors and better clarity than you would normally get from natural deposits. Obsidian can come in a variety of colors depending on what contaminants act as pigments in it. Same with meteor impact glass. The most common range is black to green, or rusty opaque dull reds.
Yeah, is sold by the ton and is realtivelly cheap ($1 to $6 the kilogram). THere are basts amounts from it in mines from old volcanic eruptions. The problem (As you see in the video), is that it has a lot of waste. Is full of cracks and inclusions and to find a nice clear big piece like the ones they use, you have to discrad a lot of material. The bigger the piece, the rarer is to find, so is more expensive. They can sold this pieces 100 ot 1000x the price of the rough material.
Don't know whether it's the skill level needed to produce these spheres that everyone is a bit long in the tooth or, they can't find young people to work that hard...
A lot more young people in the developing parts of Asia are gettimg educated and going off in search of tech jobs or office jobs, and unintelligent young people might not be able to learn the skill and will do the more menial labor of collecting scrap, etc. Also, even the developing world is seeing dropping birth rates in Asia, and if this is China, they are already at a severe sub replacement birthrate due to their draconic population control measures. Old people start to outnumber young people.

You are the idiot here. It's not volcanic. It's man made slag with material mixed in like how glass is colored. You can actually imitate Himalayan pink salt. It's just rock salt with mineral contaminants that cause the color. It's not really that special. To get obsidian, aka real volcanic glass in such vibrant translucent reds would be highly unlikely in nature due to the elements required being rarer than those that produce opaque black, gray, green, and dull rusty reds.
We know is not volcanic but the real question is why not pore it in a spherical mold to cut down processing time!
Because fortune tellers don't want cheap crystal balls
@@rahrahrobbbieee if it is not really volcanic, it is already cheap. LOL

no eye protection either
