WARNING: The Push and Pull hotkeys are reversed on the menu from the way they actually operate. A is push (into the GH), S is pull (out of the GH). Also, like all buildings with hotkeys, your mouse cursor must be touching the actual building in order for the hotkeys to register.

==Hotkeys==

*G - Goal Display
*A - Moves the project into the glory hole
*S - Moves the project out of the glory hole
*Q - Check the current quality
*N - Rotate counterclockwise
*M - Rotate clockwise
*U - Unload (complete) the project
*D - Discard the project, destroying the materials
*B - Blow into the tube

==Thermometers==
Requires: 1 [[Glass Pipe]], 1 [[Quicksilver]]

You must have Advanced Glassblowing & Basic Chemestry for thermo to show up in the gloryhole list.

*'''Standard Heat'''

*aaaaaaaaaa sssssss mmmmmmmmm bbbb mmmmmmm q mmmm u That's about it.
#'a' held down to push it in clear to the back.
#Hit 's' EXACTLY 7 times to pull it back out.
#Rotate hitting 'm' til you see the frontish part turn a bit yellow.
#Hit 'b' EXACTLY 4 times to blow the bulb.
#Rotate with 'm' again until your pinky can hit 'q' to check the quality.

*''Keep checking until it's over 3500 and hit 'u' quick as you can after you see that.''
*TO REPAIR and bring less than 3500 quality up
**Rotate until droop of bulb is pointing up and stop rotating a couple clicks to let it droop back to normal while hitting 'q'. You can often improve the quality enough to save it this way. ~Ariella~

 ===Methods===
 I recommend Pin Point Heat, and forget about doing the bulb, you can get great quality, with just focusing on the twist. See the images. /McArine
