Scientific Glassblowing Links

This is a good starter page for anyone interested in scientific glassblowing, or making your own equipment.

http://www.ecu.edu/chem/glassblowing/gb.htm

With a little bit of patience and practice, you can whip up quite a few handy-dandy items from simple rods and tubes. This site does a pretty good job of covering:

· Introduction
· Objectives
· Safety
· Equipment, Material, Tools and Terminology
· Glassblowers Bench
· Oxygen and Fuel Gas Systems
· Burners and Torches
· Cutting Glass
· Rotation
· Fire Polishing Annealing
· Test Tubes
· Butt Seals
· T-Seals
· Bends
· Applications
· Repairs
· Resources
· Ring Seals
· Scientific Glassblowing Q/A
· Vacuum Seals

Hope you guys find this useful. If anyone has any other links to add, let's see them here. I'll post more in this thread as I sort through my bookmarks and find the good stuff Smile.
