  4. 🔥 TIL: Glassblowers rely on #physics and #chemistry to shape molten #glass, working soft glass at roughly 1,200º C (~ 2,200º F) in a furnace and heat-resistant borosilicate at a torch.

    Glass is an amorphous solid with no sharp melting point, softening gradually. Artists move between reheating and shaping benches, then anneal finished pieces in a kiln cooled slowly to prevent stress fractures.
