Very nice job. When I learned, this technique was not taught to us. This is by far the superior way to do it.

Thank you so much for the great tutorial. I've been so afraid to try a circle and now I will. Love your videos.

I have not yet perfected any of my glass cutting. But, you give me the confidence to try it. Thanks for breaking down the step-by-step. I enjoy and appreciate your channel. Happy New Year!

Bravo! very good job! Next time show us how you cut INSIDE curves?? A few years back I sculpted a large , complex Art Nouveau style , (like 24 inches tall, 18 inches wide), that I have been "aching" to fill with a hummingbird with English bellfowers and cadmium yellow sun rays above extending down through the entire surface, with just a bit of fernery at the base. This would be backlit for a wall hanging. The hummingbird with bellflowers and ferns I painted in oil on wood panel some years back, Perhaps a few hummingbirds not just one in order to get a bit of visual rhythm going.

The hummingbird project sounds fabulous and sounds like some with you would execute wonderfully. Jill did a lantern with hand-painted hummingbirds on the four panels of the glass. It sold within a couple of hours of going on display at a craft fair we exhibited at. Inside curves are more tricky to cut, Jill showed exampled in part 1 of the mackerel project where she cut the wrist and tail sections: kzitem.info/news/bejne/k66Nm3uZgaNlgXo

@@FiredGlass Oh, yes, yes, I remember the mackerel I'll need to return to that. I would love to see the hummingbird lamp. I was musing today, is it best to portray the hummingbird in flight as we KNOW it to be with wings, or as we PERCEIVE it to be with no wings? On my oil painting I portrayed the wings as a transparent gray blur. I'll fish around for my painting and send photo to your email. Thank you for your reply! Ralph

I would suggest with wings, otherwise it may look a little odd. The flapping of wings showing semi transparent is a great idea. I look forward to seeing your photos.

1:05 yes, I just moisten the tip of my (Toyo?) glass cutter with an oily solvent like kerosene. I have never put oil into my cutter.

It's surprising how little lubricant you actually need.

@@FiredGlass Yes, a tiny amount prevents the wheel from being stopped and misguided by irregularities on the glass, seedy and textured glass being more challenging.
