Back in the saddle…Again

I tried.  I really tried to keep away from it.  When I got into glass fusing I swore up and down that I would not do Youtube videos.  I have another Youtube Channel called Thebige61’s Model Railroad Video Blog with over 450 videos of me rambling and working on my layout.  I kinda got burnt out doing that and was able to resist for a time the siren call of a glass fusing video blog.

Well that didn’t last long. 

The format is the same as my model railroad channel.  There’s no scripts;  I just work on projects and ramble. For that reason I wouldn’t call what I’m doing “tutorials”  but people seem to get something out of them.

So there!

Favorite YouTube Channels

I’d thought I’d list a few of my favorite Glass fusing YouTube channels

Chewysmum – Wonderful tutorials.  Great information! Very soothing voice.  She makes me think “This is what Mr. Rogers wife must sound like”!

Here’s a sample:

GlassyEyedVideo – Some more great information.  I feel like I’m listening to my grandpa! The channel hasn’t been active recently.  I hope he makes some more.

Here’s a sample:

Then we also got videos from a couple of the big dogs on the block: Bullseye Glass Co and Delphi Glass.

Here’s a couple of samples:

Bullseye Glass

Delphi Glass

And then finally…dichroicglassman.  Now this guy is scary talented but he’s scary talented and also a salesman (a rare combination).  There’s some decent info in his videos yet at the same time they are helpfully unhelpful because  he’s trying to get you to buy his video tutorial series and gives you just enough info to tantalize (or piss you off).

Here’s a sample:

 

That’s all for now…
