image Don is preparing to join a glass tube to a reservoir.
 
image Here, Don is joining two pieces while they spin on the lathe.
 
image Don works on blowing a small hole in the reservoir to leave an opening for another tube.
 
image Don is heating up two pieces for preparation while spinning them on the lathe.
 
image In this picture, Don is honing in one of his joints to make sure it is as straight as possible.
 
image Don is expanding the reservoir in this project by heating the area and blowing into the piece.

image Here is Don's primary spinning lathe for glass projects.
 
image Don also has a secondary lathe for larger works that require a custom gib.
 
image This is an annealing oven which is used to cure the glass by heating it slowly and evenly.
