The making of a 'Herman Planet with a Wormhole' hand made marble.

gather5

The first step is to 'gather' a glob of hot glass on the end of a pontil, which is the long metal rod you see him using here. Jack Hahn, The Marble Man, assists Herman here, he will quickly shut the door to the glory hole when Herman pulls the pontil back. This is so they can keep the glass at a steady temperature.
