Is there anything you can make with a single chuck lathe?

Sure lots of prep stuff. Also doing runs of production frit melt ins . I can make a simple tube one one. No ring seal or dewars . Glass on glass joint forming etc. make 10,000 pinch hitters.with one and buy a two headed glass lathe .

Bubbles and beakers all day.

Carrot the end if tube, use your paddle to guide, push in/scoop up your gather. And blow out with blow hose. Takes some finesse but can be done super quick.

Or pulled point on yolk rollers, Maxine spinning it, guiding by hand with rollers to gather
