Cool is that blown glass

- Thread starter fdd2blk
- Start date
it just came naturally. i have a lot of prior experience that carried over. i'm a welder, a machinist, i've worked with clay in the past as well. i also worked at a neon shop for about 3 months 15 years ago.
i took 7 hours of basic lessons over at oaksterdam U. she taught me how to spin the rod and make a marble. i also have worked with a few fellow glass blowers and they have shown me a few things. youtube vids and a glass forum helped as well.
haha but i was kidding, my initial intention was to see how many formal classes/hours of classes you've really had. but you blow very well for only 7 hours of sit down classes

it has to be "coe33".
color runs anywhere from 16 - 60 dollars a pound. to get a few pounds of scrap for 20 bucks would be a good deal.
the prices listed are for a 1/4 lb, ... http://www.waleapparatus.com/index.asp?category=18714

Nice, I saw a Badfish concert at the House of Blues in Houston last year.
They played a bunch of Sublime as well as some of their own stuff... Lots of weed going around that place, very cool!!!
Nice fish pipe... reminds me of a frog pipe I had a while back

That is cool,I like that one. I figured you might want to save some money though, it's an expensive hobby. Ok,I'm out.
