Hard Glass
Posted on Friday, March 26, 2010 in Photography
How hard is glass crafting?
if i took the class in high school would it still be hard to make cool things like pipes, bubblers, and bongs with colors?(if your not going to say anything nice don't say it at all)
and what kind of machines would i have to buy?
It would be expensive and more expensive while you get used to your equipment and practice. I personally think using glass is not that hard after about a week of practice.
You will need:
*a torch of glass blowing
*glass in rod form from a glass supplier (for what you want to do, make sure you get some hollow rods)
*glasses that block the sodium flare from melting glass
*something to allow the glass to cool slowly. For your projects you can probably use a small kiln.
*glass tools (such as graphite paddles, tweezers, etc . . .)
*an aloe plant (break off a piece and put it on your burns)
*a glass cutter
*appropriate ventilation
*a non-flammable surface to work on
*try to look up some videos, too
That is all I can think of right now!
