Flame workers in Missoula?

[pipeshawk]

So I've been reading Homer Hoyts book on glass blowing, as well as this forum for quite some time. I've seen people blow glass, but i've never attempted it myself. Though it's something I am very interested in persuing. Does anyone know of any Flameworkers in Missoula Montana that would be down with leting somebody work on some glass under there torch? If they've been doing it for a while I would be down for paying for some lessons. I really just wanna try cutting tube, different flames, and making some buttons or pendants. As well as learing the whole setup in general. I don't have any tools yet, but I believe I can aquire the glass. As well as pizza, beer, and smoke...
Do welding shops sell Didymium glasses?
