Introduction

Glassworking is the process of turning sand into glass. To start, you must create a Glass Batch, of which there are four types:

1. Silica, from white sand.
2. Hematitic, from yellow, red, or pink sand.
3. Olivine, from green or brown sand.
4. Volcanic, from black sand.

Silica Glass Batch

Glass batches can then be crafted using one of the aforementioned colors of sand, plus Lime and a type of Potash.
Remember that different sand types can be obtained by breaking gravel with a hammer.

Soda Ash or Saltpeter can be used as a source of Potash. Soda ash is a powder made from heating Dried Seaweed or Kelp.

Lime is produced by heating Flux.

Tools of the Trade

Glassworking is done by starting with a glass batch, and then completing a series of steps. These steps may require specific tools:

• A Blowpipe, to Blow and Stretch.
• A Paddle, to Flatten.
• Jacks, to Pinch.
• A Gem Saw, to Saw.
• And a Wool Cloth, to Roll.

The most important tool is the Blowpipe. An Unfired Ceramic Blowpipe can be knapped from clay, and then fired into a Ceramic Blowpipe.
However, ceramic blowpipes are brittle, and have a chance to break when used. An invulnerable Blowpipe can be Worked from a Brass Rod on an anvil.

Paddle

The Flatten operation can be done with a Paddle, which is crafted from wood.

The Pinch operation can be done with Jacks, made from Welding a brass rod with a brass plate.

Gem Saw

The Saw operation can be done with a Gem Saw. The gem saw is also used to break both Glass Blocks and Glass Panes to obtain them.

How to Work Glass

First, glass on the blowpipe must be heated to at least Faint Red. Then, hold the blowpipe in your offhand and hold Clique Direito to perform each step.
Use F to pick up a hot blowpipe into your offhand.

Blow
Use the Blowpipe while facing straight ahead.

Stretch
Use the Blowpipe while facing straight down.

Flatten
Use the Blowpipe while holding a Paddle in your main hand.

Pinch
Use the Blowpipe while holding Jacks in your main hand.

Saw
Use the Blowpipe while holding a Gem Saw in your main hand.

Roll
Use the Blowpipe with a Wool Cloth in your main hand.

Table Pour

Glass Panes are made with a Table Pour. A pouring table is made by placing up to sixteen Kaolin Clay Blocks or Brass Plated Blocks in a continuous area.

1. Add a Glass Batch to a Blowpipe.
2. Heat the blowpipe to Faint Red.
3. Clique Direito the Blowpipe on the top of the table.
4. Finally, Clique Direito with a Paddle to flatten the glass.

Basin Pour

Glass Blocks are made with a Basin Pour. A basin is made by surrounding all sides of an air block except the top with Kaolin Clay Blocks or Brass Plated Blocks.

1. Add a Glass Batch to a Blowpipe.
2. Heat the blowpipe to Faint Red.
3. Clique Direito the Blowpipe on the top of the table.

Glassworking Blocks

Coloring Glass

Glass has a natural color based on the type of Glass Batch that was used. Other colors can be made using a Bowl.

To use, place the Bowl on the ground, then Clique Direito the required Powder. Before Pouring, use the Blowpipe on the bowl to add the powder to the batch.
