Watch Heather Trimlett demonstrate for her Beadmaking with an Introduction to Glass Buttons class at The Studio. Students of this class will learn to work smarter and more efficiently in order to gain the maximum return on torch time. The class will take the mystery out of clear casing, stringer work, large-hole beads, disc shaping. The instructor will demonstrate her "no-fail" way to create a successful hollow bead. The magic of making perfect twists and then applying the twists also will be covered in the class. www.cmog.org/bio/heather-trimlett
I want to pick up lampworking again. Watching this tutorial gave me some idea what to practice. I‘ve been at the Studio in 2014 where I attended a course with Kristina Logan. I would love to take further classes at the Studio.
That was great! Thank you Heather and Corning!
LOVED IT!!!! Thank you Heather and thank you Corning Museum of Glass!
Thank you Heather! Great teacher
\What an excellent demo video. So nicely done. Very inspiring. Thank you.

Awesome Class, Heather Trimlett

Very talented and smart lady.
Thank you so much! You are amazing!!!
This was wonderful
Thanks for watching!
WOW!!!
Wonderful video! But she doesn't make buttons. Where is the button demo?
Could anyone explain how to get such a large mandrel with so much bead release on it? Thank you.
The mandrel is special, and has a large diameter stainless steel pipe welded to the end. It gets only the usual dip in release. Talk to the people at Arrow Springs (google it) if you want one.
I'd like to know how the bead gets out of the mandrel, after cooled.
VERA LUCIA PAPALEO The mandrel is dipped in a bead release (typically clay based) which can be flame or air dried prior to any glass being added. The bead is built on this bead release so it doesn't stick to the mandrel itself. Once the bead is cool, turning the bead will cause the bead release to crumble, allowing the bead to slide off the mandrel.
Thanks for the explanation. I liked very much your work and way of teaching. Clear even for a foreign that doesn't speak English so well. The final products are gorgeous.
when she says " when you think you have it hot enough, what do you do?" what is the answer?
8:15
The answer is to "wait!" Thanks for watching!
Having access to my own metal barstock and machine shop equip.,I'd like to make my own metal punties.I tried looking for more info online.Is there any sort of special endwork,finish,or surface treatment to the brass tip?It doesn't appear so,but I'd hate to have a piece/part/project drop off.Thank You!
+Bowtie41 There isn't anything special about it. Brass may works but 304 or 316 stainless works even better, and most of our tools for flameworking tools are made of this.
+Corning Museum of Glass Is a marver also stainless or does cold rolled steel give a smoother roll?
+sp10sn - The marvers are nothing special, just cold rolled steel - Except they must be heavily ground to remove the mill surface (heavy carbon) otherwise they are "slippery" for the glass and more difficult to use. The blanchard ground (milled) surface gives them a slight grab for the glass when rolling on it. unfortunately it makes them rust faster. We clean our with soft woven abrasive pads regularly. Stainless is an option but is much more expensive and can warp if overheated. The mild steel is much less prone to this.
Thanks again, lads. Buying the steel as plate this afternoon and grinding/polishing it down myself.
that almost suspicious looking girl at 7:53 i want to know what happend that made her put on that strawberry situation, did she lost a bet or what?
does it really take you an hour per bead?
She was doing a larger bead while also taking a lot of time to explain things, while also probably going slow to demonstrate the technique and fill the hour webcast. I saw another lady do a much larger bead that started on a smaller mandrel and it took the same time, I cannot remember her name though.
thank you :)
great tutorial. it would only be better if instructors would repeat questions asked in class since the askers are not 'miked' though! Love it!
as soon as you say " it will be ok " it wont
