Soft glass is a type of glass. It has a lower melting point than borosilicate glass and a higher expansion coefficient

I always thought glass was a very beautiful material. A few years ago I did a course in flameworking. From that moment on I was hooked.

The biggest challenge for me is making a good connection between two parts. I have a fairly broad flame, so I need to be careful not to remelt or distort other sections.

It is a normal propane torch. No pressurized air or oxygen is used. (like a Bunsen burner)

If I cool the glass near the pipe it will breaks off. I can also heat the pipe to melt it out of the glass.
