Basic Glass Blowing Steps   
Ta Dah !!
Lots of reheating when needed.  This piece is a
jack-in-pulpit so here the top is being overheated and
spun.
Art and Artist
Using the jacks for shaping and a 'jackline'  for
removing.
The tricky part can be transferring to a
punty rod
Time for more glass, and to add color and designs
Shaping on the bench.
Quickly shape...
...and start a bubble
First the blowpipe has to glow light red
Then, take a gather of glass
Shape it before it cools to solid
