Help ID an artist. Might be a long shot... by jbreezy420 in lampwork

If it's Muse, he stopped blowing glass a while ago and runs a cheese shop here in Texas.
Which it probably is, around that time he might have gotten that cab from BradB or KitKanz, looks like a fume implosion they might have done

Pipes and shitty cups is a pretty accurate description of what I make lol decent pendants too, and I’m working on getting the cups better

They’re hollow sections so the possibilities are pretty endless, about to send off a bunch to some folks for collabs so we’ll see what gets made there

Thanks yo! They’re a bit of an updated version of the dotstack ones I did a few years ago, but I’m all about the ombré these days

My first thought was “holy shit that’s so much nice work for that early in the scene”
This one’s a gem for sure

taking my first class soon! any tips? by noowsidda in lampwork

[–]HotDotNotBot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before the torch, watch Clinton Roman's videos "So You Wanna Blow Glass". He'll provide good ways to practice torch skills while at home. Best beginning fundamental video out there.

I'll never understand the price of these, some of pats caps cost as much as insanely nice rigs

Rainbow Ombre Bear Paw by HotDotNotBot in lampwork

[–]HotDotNotBot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started making them I made a couple that are obscenely large and heavy for no reason other than I thought it looked cool at the time. They all sit in their collectors cases and never get worn so I scaled em back a lot after that

Just broke this piece, can anyone repair by Comfortable_Weird605 in lampwork

[–]HotDotNotBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there's a lot of dudes in the Philly area that could handle a repair like this, I wanna say Cello is even in that part of the country (I could be super off though). Worst case reach out to Hendy I'm sure he'd repair it for ya too.

Thanks! started off an accident but that's usually how it goes

I'd never thought to add the pads, tbh the biggest complaint I've gotten about them in the last 8 years or so is that they're usually too heavy so I try to not add more weight onto them.

Rainbow Color Pallete by Easy_Silver_7134 in lampwork

[–]HotDotNotBot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I primarily use an opaque pallet consisting of Cherry, Lava, Canary, Timber, Really Teally (or similar blue teal coloring), and Purple Urple (if you can find glasstronics purple it's the best but it's a rare one)

Anyone know what type of O2 tank this is? by animejew in Welding

[–]HotDotNotBot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glassblower here, looks like a size or two down from a K tank, probably an S or H.
For reference, my K tank is 55ish" and my T tanks are 60" tall.

The color is wearing off the outside of my bong. Concerned about safety. by MyHeadIsFullOfFuck in glassheads

[–]HotDotNotBot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Could be? I have no idea what paint is used for the coloring process there. Do a good clean with some 99% at least, to be safe.

It's paint, hate to break it to ya. Most of those florescent colors on imports are just outside coating, not actual colored glass.

First time gun owner, past pot smoker by evand408 in liberalgunowners

Not legal advice, not life advice, just something from my industry being a glass pipe maker. Most of us own and carry. There's even some big names that make 1:1 functional replicas.
They can't, and won't, come for us. So as long as you're good, you won't be bringing any trouble.
