Thanks for finding this. I am teaching a class of 10 students on making boro marbles and yesterday they were asking me how regular marbles was made. I will show them this video.

Lots of clear can be added by using a kiln/crucible that is filled with molten glass.

That was a neat video! I kind of wish he hadn't kept calling the gather a "clump", though.
