why a pad? i'm doing the same thing with a glow rod. only mine looks way cooler. it doesn't need to be that hot either. and i don't see how it can be "the best way". it's just smoke. it's a little bubbler. just like every other bubbler. 'cept it's got a pad and a funnel. i don't see how one can be "better" than another. that one is kinda ugly.

and doesn't THC react differently at different temps. why does it need to be 2000 degrees? that's what those torches run up to. that titanium is RED hot. i wonder if it's just frying the shit outta the oil. you can't cook a good steak at 2000 degrees. =/

i could be wrong.

like the new work. the oil pipe is a really cool design and reminds me of the hmk ggirl oil vape bubbler.

(not my pics)

supposed to be one of the best pieces ever made to smoke oil. you ever think of attaching a titanium pad to one of your pieces?
also the slides are looking really nice. sort of looks like salt (link)

keep up the good work...

p.s. can you post a link to your new glass threads you start in your old ones. makes it much easier for everyone thats subscribed to keep up.

you said it was supposed to be the "best ever". and then asked if i ever thought of making mine that way. i simply answered your question.

i wasn't defending mine, i was clowning his. :-P

i used a piece of clear tubing. i coil wrapped it in black. then i rolled that in silver shavings. i drew on some caramel and raked it with my tungsten. then i took a bigger piece of clear tubing. heated up the black piece dropped it into the clear piece and blew the black piece out until it sealed with the clear. they call that a "blow IN". then i melt it all together smooth and shape it.

i like to make things that have visual appeal. IMG_3763.jpg

just made 3 marbles and a spoon. they will be out of the kiln late tonight. :)


i'm kinda stuck on what i want to do. i'm on the edge of being really good. i need to get my welds down and start using more bridges. i have a lot of ideas, i'm just not quite good enough to get them all out. it's frustrating. if i can get as good as i need to be then i will end up making some really cool stuff.

when I got bored with shaping i moved on to pulling tube. if thats not ur cup of tea i would suggest sculpting..i imagine its incredibly hard but im sure it would be fun and probably bring a different aspect to anyones glass game.

do you have a etsy shop? im thinking about starting one up but wondering if product actually sells.

sculpting is actually pretty easy. i've worked with clay in the past so i have a little feel for it. IMG_2858.jpg IMG_3345.jpg

i did a few tube pulls. i have seen some really cool wig wag stuff but i don't have the patience for it. IMG_3123.jpg IMG_2980.jpg

i set up my etsy shop last month and have sold a few things already. www.fadedglassworks.etsy.com
