Tumbler

Description

The Make-Your-Own Tumbler is a 25-minute introduction to furnace glassblowing.

You’ll use the blowpipe to take your gathered glass and reheat it at the hole as needed. Then, you’ll blow air into the blowpipe and use tools to shape the glass. You may take a more active or passive a role based on your comfort level.

If you are a party of more than one person you must book consecutive time slots to accommodate your group.

Each time slot is 30 minutes. Choose a start time and then an end time for the number of time slots required. You may book up to 4 time slots.
