Prerequisites

Now that you know how to handle hot glass, it's time to make it do what you want. Glassblowing 2 focuses on intentional shaping — learning to control wall thickness, manipulate gravity, and use jacks, blocks, and paddles with purpose. You'll work toward mastering the three foundational forms: the cylinder, the cone, and the inverted cone. Expect dedicated time on puntying — arguably the most critical (and humbling) skill in glassblowing.
