Failed glass-to-metal seal attempt #10: Copper foil. Since thermal expansion is a fraction of the total size, a thinner wire will expand less and has more tolerance for mismatched CTEs.
10 um wire is very difficult to handle and can't carry much current, but a 10 um foil is has none of those problems.
I tried sealing some copper foil in in glass (copper's oxide forms a very strong bond), and

Photo soon (I've yet to make one that isn't super ugly), but the copper disc to flared end seal is repeatably vacuum tight.
In a pinch, the metal needs to expand in all directions, which is very hard. Because of this, the stress builds up until the glass breaks. In a disc seal, it only stretches in one direction which it can easly do by getting thinner.

First good video of this effect I've seen:

Very cool.
In light of recent events, I wrote a thing about making flexible "ice packs" that freeze at 18 °C. That's low enough to cool down, but high enough to be frozen in a basement (no electricity required!)
The materials are cheap, non-toxic, n…

Ok, but does it really have to be a tube?
Making a disk of copper foil and sealing it to the end of a tube (leaving the middle without any glass) almost worked. It sealed fine, but I got some rosin flux inside the glass while trying to s…

First successful (non-leaking) glow tube: The lead ins are 10 um tungsten wire through borosilicate glass. Tube is full of low pressure air.

Ok, found a neat way to leak test a tube whith out sealing it: Pump it down, use high-voltage AC (like tesla coil) to ionize the residual gas and spray "canned air" on suspect areas.
Even a small amount of the fluorinated refrigerant wi…
A fun thing about tungsten is that even though the torch isn't anywhere near it's melting point, it will burn through in under a second.
Invisible and flammable wire -> Nothing left after making the tube
