It's amazing how much needless crap a stoner with an internet connection can stir up.

Well back to fdd's glass blowing showcase, I think I'll stay on the sidelines for a bit.bongsmilie

i am out of gas again. you would have never thought that is going to be my biggest deterrent, would you've? friggin $36 to fill a full sized bottle of oxygen. i can empty it in 2 days with this small torch. i bet i could empty one in a few hours with a BIG torch. my buddy said he has 9 oxygen tanks. i now understand why.


i made a few new things. i'll go take some pics. :mrgreen::blsmoke:

Not a cheap hobby huh. I worked at an old vets office that had an oxygen generator from around 1970. It provided oxygen to fill one of those tanks. Maybe you can check medical surplus and save cash in the long run.

the green one is a "prototype". i'm working on a built in screen.

the clear one is fumed. it will change colors when used. but i blew the bowl hole way to big then funked it up trying to fix it.

chiceh, do you like the purples on the "fdd" pipe. i really do. you helped me, i owe you one. the bowl on that one is funked up as well.

i have never seen a public forum treat someone so mean. it was shocking. especially for people who you would think are cool and mellow. i have friends here locally and i can read all the internet i want. i enjoy trying to learn things on my own anyway. it a challenge, it's how my brain works. i'm always thinking "how does that work?" or "how did they do that?" i love figuring things out. once i figure it out i get bored with it. :-|
