Trying My Hand At Glass Pipe Making

WOW! You do magnificent work! Subbed. I also love how quickly you learned and grew in skill, you are an inspiration.

I think what you smoke out of it changes what it is.. they were first used just to freebase things. It is a freebase pipe. You can freeebase lots of shit. Oil hash and wax are what I freebase

Wow. Didn't know you were like that. . Thought thus was just a glass thread. Now I see its just you selling your glass through PayPal..
fdd isn't that against the rules?
f.a.a.h.

fdd doesnt think rules apply to him.

both fdd and kitty asked site owners for permission and were granted permission to conduct such threads/glass selling


i mean i'm not them but like i'm 95% sure both of them did... i'm just answering so the children can settle down

he was asking me if kitty was breaking the rules.

if you're going to insult me, at least do it properly.

Hey RK, the police took that "judges gavel" bubbler you made for me.

Could you make me a more badass replacement? PM me we'll work out a price. I really loved that piece

So any updates of what you've been making?

Aha thats funny, you got a year of use off of it at least! I can do those way better now too, I'd love to make it again with some new gizmos on it Shoot me a PM whenever your ready!

Some new stuff....... This is all I have in stock of everything........ Havent been to the pipe store in a few weeks her last check bounced (ouch!) so she owes me a little cash =-)

If you like something and want to buy it please circle it and send a picture via pm or here. Everything is cheap-ish and securely delivered, all orders and addresses go in the shredder, its a hobby not a job after all

Also some pictures of the new glass studio room......... Its still in progress will get a good picture session soon

THELASTWOOD: The green tube is what I was going to make your oil dish/nail/paddle with. Let me know if it sucks pretty soon going to be making it here tonight!

Green is great!

There's a lot if great pipes there but the ones in the last pic of pipes are amazing. Especially the first 4

i loveeee the wig wagss

What size tubing do you use when you pull your stick stacked tubing?

I'm gonna say it again, the first 4 pipes in the last pic of the pipes (before the raw glass pis) are awesome! They look like there cut out of marble or somethin and the warts are awesome. I almost wanna buy them all 4. I've never seen pipes with designs like that.

What us that glass/style called kitty?

I use quarter sticks of color, 25x4mm for inner tubing --> color sticks --> 50x5mm tubing. After the glass is pulled I get about 1.5 lbs per color pull give or take....

Thanks Those were Honeycomb pipes that have a lot of decoration on them. They can be yours for the right price!!

Speaking of yours, here's your nail, paddle and dish that you had me make, it ships out soon as I eat some Arbys. The Sherlock is the same tube and made it after them so figured I'd picture them together.

Yes I definatly like the colors you chose on that dish... it would contrast very well against some oil!

So you've got coloring down, now just shaping to perfection as you have figured out with your pipes

I can't imagine how the glass blowers making dishes keep the walls so uniform and everything...

Are they rotating it on something like clay hobbyists do?

I can't wait to get it

Looks great

All glass is rotated in the flame, otherwise it would droop.

The dish you show there is a friend of mine from online too actually, n3rdglass. That dish, check the dimensions. Its the size of a quarter. VERY tiny -- $70!

The shaping is done on that one (and mine) by attaching a punty (aka a glass rod) to the bottom of the dish and working it on the torches graphite marver pad and spinning. I like the shaping on mine a little more, it looks more like a hand made dish. I always thought that those rough rimmed edges made it look factory molded and mass manufactured, but it is indeed a more "solid" look to them.....

I got your PM too, just working on some stuff to show you before I reply

Thanks! Let me know how they work or any suggestions too!

no problem kitty!

& yes! $70 is quite steep.... for a simple quarter sized piece of glass anyway... worth it if you really fall in love with it i think though


I would have purchased it, but I don't really want to drop $70 on a dish right now....


Now some quality dish from my friend online at a price lower than that, I could afford

I like $35 for a dish. But, it would come with a matching nail and paddle, too. Delivered. They arent really much work but there's a lot of little things to prep for them in advance............ Other glass friends seem to like the color tubing, sold a few pounds of it to two people already that I have to get cranked up before monday....

I have a titanium nail & titanium dabber so I don't need the paddle or dabber


but I assume you just make sets
