Worked with Glass block for 20 years making Pre Assembled panels with em (that Pattern is Argus, theres Parallel and Non Parallel Rib style) , sad Pittsburgh Corning went outta business due to Imports (our Block now comes from Czech Republic....its CHEAPER to get it 3/4 around the world away instead of 45 min up river...sad) , and "every single block" is NOT checked lol. I get crooked, oblong, twisted, not fully sealed, ect
@@mellowm9882 Making the Block itself, not sure. But to make the Panels like I was is a LOT of lifting throughout the day. Like a standard "4-32x24 panel Pour" for mortar (though ALOT no longer use Mortar) you gotta lift/cart 4-50lb Boxes of block, hand lay every one (so lifting 5 lb block 40 times), carry 50lb Bag of Mortar to mixer, lift 50lb Bucket to Pour Mortar. And when its all set and dry (in 45 minutes with my recipe) you gotta flip up each 60lb panel, clean other side and carry each one to "Finished" Area. I used to do that about 4 or 5 times in an 8 hour day,5 days a week. It takes a toll on your Back, Legs and arms. Friday Epsom Salt 3 hour bath soaks were a normal. So, in closing lol, EASY absolutely as long as people DO their job properly (miswritten orders PISS me off). But its also HARD (heavy), STRENUOUS back killing Labor in between the Easy.
@@cpoky ya im going to being doing glass block manufacturing just making it at their one location as far as i know.. I got a tour/interview coming up so i'll see.. I asked if i'll do any laying or building walls he said no
@@mellowm9882 GOOD DEAL, hope it works out. Be careful, glass is dangerous let alone Molten Glass. IF they need some Panel Assemblers tell em you know an expert with over 20 years experience thats made THOUSANDS of em over the years whos lookin for a job. Tell em its the guy from ROSE GLASS BLOCK in Donora....see if they remember me lol.
2 am when I should be sleeping is the perfect time to be suddenly fascinated in glass blocks.
this is really satisfying! watched the entire vid without skipping. Good Job!
Did the camera glass break at 0:36? So cool
Hahaha nice observation.
I think it's the covering glass for the camera just like when they use it for underwater recording
*Fascinating!*
Hypnotic video!
Thanks for shearing.
