Hey guys and gals,

In December I am moving into a space that will have a suitable setup for me to build a 3 station glass shop. I need people's hand me down tools, torches and kilns. Anyone who might be able to get some stuff together by mid December let me know. I am not looking for freebies or hand outs. I will turn your old junk into raw glass.

Thanks,

Adam

I tried that once. Everybody gave me shit (verbal)....I wish they gave me hand me down tools....Kilns don't loose much value sooo....Maybe if you bribed us....I'm looking for scientific glass..........Slick

Hey Slick,

What are you looking for as far as scientific glass? I have a glut of Schott Duran 105x3.0 I would like to blow out of here as well as plenty of other goodies.

I want a condenser so I can make crude moonshine....I want it to be able to have running water pumping through and the alcohol vapor change to liquid. Anything really neat too.....

I looked at the Amazon site for the bootlegger's bible Icarus posted...there's a recipe for horse-turd whiskey...so maybe those stories about moonshine-induced brain damage aren't far off the mark at all... :twitch:

No offense, but serious bootleggers know that cow-turd whiskey is where it's at.

Whatevaaa! Totally goat turd whiskey. That shit will knock you on your ass and make you forget your name for several hours. Best part is, it uses goat turds, which I think we can all agree are even funnier that horse or cow turds.

Alright, enough with the poop-brew talk.

Phase one is beginning.

I need:

Small Kilns. 2 of them at least. For making beads/small jewelery/ small stuff.

Not looking to spin the electric meter quite yet.

Post em up if you got em and would be willing to part with em.

When I was trying to get used stuff for starting out I had good luck on Craigslist. I'm still looking for some small stuff, but I got a hole shit load of stuff for $85.00. Including two national 3A's, and an oxy regulater. The people I got it from seemed relly nice, so I don't think any of it was stollen, but some people do sell stolen shit on craigslist.

Ps. I posted a wanted add to get glass stuff, and then just listed the kind of stuff I was looking for!
