Glasswork: Blowing glass

In the hot glass workshop, I had my first go at actually blowing glass. I found it difficult to keep turning the iron, and keeping the glass on center is very important so the bubble is in the middle and the sides are even.

I used the newspaper pad to shape the glass, before thumbing in a bubble. I used the jacks to cut in and did eventually end up with some sort of small vessel type things. This seems to be something that needs a lot of practice.
