i just bought 100 dollars worth of glass

shows me wut i know...

the caramel and the chameleon have a lot of "fumy" in them. it burns off as i melt it all in. so technically it is getting fumed; just by the color itself, not by me. it's a really cool techniques that i love doing, i'm just having problems with it cracking a lot. i have a few things i will try, to get it to stop. :mrgreen::peace:
 
How do you torchwork pipes? I thought torchwork was used for smaller scale glass work? are you using the torches they sell at Home Depot that are like the cheap $30 ones (you can use those!) or are you using an Oxygen/Propane style torch?
 
pyrex glass is typically made with bench top torches , liquid oxygen/propane. i think ur thinking of soft glass (w/. the gloryhole stuff) ...

Damn that marble looks awesome.. Wish I could say the same about the pipe. But yeah that marble is fuckin great. Looks kinda like a quasar. (Sp?)

my stem got a little stretched out. i like the shaping on the can but it is a little sloppy. it hits nice and is comfortable to hold though. :mrgreen:
