KILZ FILLZ Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I know a guy who is a journeyman glass blower Dude used to make vases for some company while he was in Boston. Since moving put here to Cali the only jobs he can find are making bongs and pipes. So he quit his trade and became an art teacher. Kinda shitty that's the only demand for an awesome artform out here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abcs Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 this is one of those things i really wish i could do and someday would like to learn. Im in the market for a new headpiece myself. A real good side hustle. Everybody needs a hustle. This one is quazi legal and the output can be great. A hobby that can get you paid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penmanship Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I've always liked watching it done, but have absolutely nothing i'd like to be made for myself. The way they stretch and round out the glass is awesome. fascinating art form, with no-one wanting any of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdot Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 This place used to have some bad ass pipes on their site, now it's mostly supplies. They do custom shit though so I'm sure they would make you a very fancy crack smoking device. http://profoundglass.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 There are two amazing glass blowers in the town of about 5,000 where I used to live here in Vermont. Robin Mix I can't afford this guy's seconds, which are incredible cheap compared to his normal prices. Janet Zug She has really nice drinking glasses that aren't on her website. She's more "affordable" though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realism Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I know a guy who is a journeyman glass blower Dude used to make vases for some company while he was in Boston. Since moving put here to Cali the only jobs he can find are making bongs and pipes. So he quit his trade and became an art teacher. Kinda shitty that's the only demand for an awesome artform out here. It is, but I still think it's great to see intricate handmade glassware. I don't like smoking out of totally phat pieces because I'm a real hip hopper and only smoke blunts and joints, but there is some absolutely beautiful glassware out on the left coast, especially around Seattle...I would never spend 2 grand on something just to fill it with resin and probably drop it one day, but I still give major props to those who make them.

falseface Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Portland art glass blowers: These guys are probably the most recognized studio in Portland- Bullseye Glass Heike Brachlow Joseph Harrington Dante Marioni This is Homie & Friends studio- Savoy Studios Some stuff they did for the casino other baller shit Similar to what's been mentioned before; I know a lot of people that do pipe work. Their stuff is great, too. I didn't think that's what we were doing here, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShortFuse Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I once had a slim chance to become an apprentice for a dude in my old town. The guy was a total recluse and I only heard of him through the dinky 4 table cafe I used to spend all my day time at. The owner knew him and inquired for me when the guy mentioned wanting an apprentice. Never came around though, they guy went back into hiding and I never got the chance. :insert cool story bro!: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suber Giraffe Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 go to your local headshop that carries a lot of non-china shit. ask if they can get custom pieces done, a lot of the employees know blowers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
