Hot Glass Work


I met this expert in hot glass work in Springfield, MO.  His glass work requires a mini foundry to produce the glass melting.  It is rather dangerous work but quite rewarding.  I still remember being told “I only got a third degree burn once in my life.”  Ouch.  Needless to say I admire his work.  Enjoy the picture montage I put together of this master glass craftsman at work.
