User:Avanya/Glassblowing guide
Introduction
Welcome! I have spent a lot of time trying to iron out my skills in Glassblowing, and I want to share my knowledge with others that are seeking to learn the trade. I am by no means a master of this skill, and I am sure there are others that play that can make higher quality items than myself. However, the knowledge to make these products is often guarded and even lost as experienced players leave the tale. It is my intention to spread what knowledge I have learned to help as many in Egypt as possible!
Before reading further, I would highly recommend reading the two glassblowing guides that have come before this. Both have helped me greatly to get started in the trade, and my thanks go out to all that contributed to these guides!
- Tale 2 guide - great info for beginners.
- Tale 6 guide - nice thermometer guide
- Tale 3 guide - good wine glass and hookah bowl guide
One final note: if you are new to glassblowing, be prepared to make a LOT of mistakes, and waste a LOT of glass. This is no sissy anvil work, where you can simply pull up your materials and try again. Every attempt will cost glass, and that cost can add up fast. I suggest going into this endeavor understanding that, so you don't get too frustrated. Make each mistake count, and be sure to analyze where your piece went wrong whenever possible. And finally, remember, glass blowing is NOT for everyone. Its perfectly ok if its not for you :)
