Delphi Tips:
- Rotate the Glaskolben constantly in one direction while heating.
- Use two hands if needed to stabilize your project in the flame while rotating to prevent wobbling into and out of the flame.
- The tip of the Glaskolben has more mass and will take longer to heat to a softened state, concentrate heat there and periodically move the center into the flame to heat evenly.
- Begin by blowing firmly, but be prepared to reduce pressure quickly if needed to prevent over-stretching soft glass.
- Keep your Glaskolben level to prevent accent glass from gathering only at the tip or from pouring into the pipe.
Safety Note: Do not tip the Glaskolben bulb above the blow pipe end while blowing or handling your hot bulb.
