thats preeeety cool...
I'm guessing other, more widely-used methods of glass-moulding are safer and more efficient though... whatever :p
This looks way unsafe, going to give people bad ideas with this. lol.
Wow so cool!
Another use for the charcoal grill aside from grilling your steaks and lamb chops... hehehe (>,<)
that is crazy awesome would a blower work to give the fire oxygen? i really wish i could do it, it would be so cool!
Now I'm no scientist, but if you hooked up a few more vacuums and a wee bit of plutonium....
Cool experiment...I have a Weber grill just like it. How did they not melt the aluminum legs on that thing??
doggies... weber does make a good grill
why not go the whole distance and make a proper blast furnace out of high temp concrete instead of giving people unsafe ideas with a barbeque
Very interesting but very difficult to do. We use a kiln with a digital controller to make sure that the glass anneals properly at ~960 degrees C. I'd like to know if the glass ended up cracking a few days later.

This can also be used to instantly grill a burger!
