Best bottle slumping video ever..."Bring out your dead, bring out your dead". 😂 Truly, he was very fun and I love his creative method to slump bottles!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the feedback. I’ll pass it along to Graeme. 😁 thanks for watching!
Not the new ones, but the group that were slumped together I would call - dance marathon. Great video 👍
Love it! 😁
Giraffe glass comes to mind because of the long neck. Wonderful work good sir I love it alot!
Excellent suggestion! 🦒 Thanks for watching! 😁👍

How about “The Watchers”? Cool video!
Awesome glass art!!!🧡🧡🧡
Thank you so much! 😄👍
My concern would be at the bottom. Where different bottles are fused together, they may not be made from compatible glass and will eventually breaker shatter.
You sir are an inspiration
I could not agree more, Graeme is the best. 😁
@@CuriosityMine Does Graeme have a site e.g. Facebook Instagram UA-cam etc I would love to see more of his creations
Not that I’m aware of, I’m afraid. He has appeared in a half dozen or so videos on this channel, but I imagine you’ve found those already. 😁👍
@@CuriosityMine
That’s a shame
oh no I haven’t seen his other videos on your channel
That’s exciting I’ll search for them now
Thank you so much
@2:14 Does anyone see 2 skeletons 💀 facing each other? Bottle stretching tames me back to the 1970's carnival games; they were so hard to win!! Lol Nice video. Tyfs
You’re very welcome, thanks for watching! 😁
Flamingo !
Perfect! 😁
As I watched this video I was quite amazed with the glass being kilned at such a high temperature yet the wood still being intact and not even scorched in that amount of heat. One would wonder how is this even possible.
Hi, thanks for watching! The brown rods used to suspend the bottles are ceramic, so there’s no danger of scorching. 😁
4 cobras kneeling also im an art teacher wjen i fire raku or clay and we get points from stands in bottom like u have from wire in necks have tried taking a peg of fired clay and rubbing it over the points it will grind it down - Jay
