Overview

Originally published under the title Experimental Glass Blowing for Boys in the early 20th century, this book contains a series of 80 "experiments" designed to teach the basic techniques of lampwork. The book discusses types of glass, how to cut, bend, and stretch glass tubes and rods, sealing a tube, blowing a bubble, joining tubes, how to cut window glass and bottles, boring a hole in glass, etc. The experiments include kids' stuff like squirt bottles, pea shooters and whistles, as well as more practical fare such as a drinking tube, siphon, nozzles, and a spirit level. Over 100 illustrations. At the time of original publication Carleton J. Lynde, Ph.D., was Professor of Physics at MacDonald College in Quebec, Canada.
