For me it's a chance to stock up on staples, though it also made me realize I'm using a lot more NS and TAG these days.

May be a noob question but what size is the tubing that's on sale ? I don't see it on the website.
RamblezMarblez
02-14-2013, 06:59 PM
I bet that grape tube would look awesome with some white frit melted inside!!! It would be cool to see what a point of Dragons Eyes strikes like...
Action Glass
02-14-2013, 07:30 PM
I bought the whole list. I'll have pics shown if you want to see the outcome. I took advantage of every sale I could. I have color for a year!!!

I'd be interested in seeing pictures! I actually ordered some frit today but was reluctant to get any tubing because I was unsure of the quality. Some say they have had luck with the OCQ and some OCQ colors not so much. That said, I wish I would have bought some chameleon that color is so stable I doubt it would have many defects.
Action Glass

I will post pics of all tubing I use in the next two week since I'm going on pro do vacay. The tubes weren't toobad and I can use their custom long board peacock with the occasional qual. Peacock solid. It came to me flawkess . Some of my color tube had uneven walls but I can use it for slides and such.

Best news I've heard all day. Scored some of that Andromeda looking forward to playing with that... but I love me some Jackpot, glad to hear there's still hope. Now I'll be on the site every hour between now and the 28th :)

Yeah I was worried I'd blow up like a blueberry Willy wonka style..

02-20-2013, 01:14 PM
Woohoo. Shipment came today. Candy's all gone already. Didn't notice any crunchiness, so I must have gotten lucky. Thanks for the freebies GA! You guys are awesome!

I see they add about twenty different colors over yesterday but most of them are gone already.
Action Glass

I bought 40 pounds from the sale. Its all about how you apply it. Some will sit on the back burner, a lot of it I've already used.. a few I didn't even realize why it was considered " occasional quality."
Captain Glass

So my order came today and I was psyched I opened the box and got some freebies which is smart on there part. I had a small shipping dilemma. I was actually kind of bummed about it because I've just started using frit and I ordered a lb of cherrywood frit and instead I got it in rod form. I was actually looking forward to this part of the order the most but it's cool, shit happens. Overall I'm pretty happy with the awesome savings on great color.
Edited : I didn't want anyone to think I was bitching because I am not. In fact when I got done going through my box I went back on there website to see if anything new popped up that maybe wasn't available on my first order.

I haven't seen anything get updated in a few days. I thought they were updating everyday? Does anyone know if they're adding more stuff to the sale before the 28th?
glassdocnc

They added at least once (though I saw it too late to get the white I've been stalking).

^^^ I got 3 Lbs of Sno White from the sale. Its absolute junk, I would gladly sell it for cost. I also got 3 Lbs of Andromeda that is trash as far as the strike is concerned but the sparkle is there.

What part of the sno white is junk? schmutz in the glass, or does it just boil easily?
I got some of this as well. As I was hoping for a replacement of the NS Star White, that I have not been very happy with.
Action Glass
02-26-2013, 03:21 PM
So how much for all of it. I didn't get any junk. I ve used snow white for a while now. I love it.
Mr.P0rn
02-26-2013, 03:49 PM
And how much for the Andromeda? I would probably take it if no one else did already.
glassnewb
02-26-2013, 04:15 PM
I love Sno White. There are A LOT of stones and a poor mix in the batch I got. you look at the end of the rods and half are clear with white specks. boils like mad too. I would sell all 3 for $45. The Andromeda is very sparkly but has almost no strike and develops a very grey haze when worked. $45 for that bundle too. PM me.
Action Glass
02-26-2013, 04:18 PM
I guess I got a good batch then

I'll take the andromeda.
Captain Glass
02-26-2013, 08:57 PM
I got a rather rocky batch of tequila sunrise but whatever it's not first quality so I'm good with getting what I paid for.
Action Glass
02-26-2013, 09:03 PM
I took the risk and bought 6 pounds of red strike for cheap wrap and rake pro do. They were all flawless at $5 a pound. Some of the others were rocky, tubes had uneven walls. Some striked different and some barley striked. For the most part I'm happy with what I got. At least I can do some real cheap pro do with it and get the imports out!
Captain Glass
02-26-2013, 09:07 PM
Yea I got some of the boromax grape Tubing and the walls were pretty off but like I said you get what you pay for on occasional stuff which is fine. Wish I would've gotten the red stike for 5 a lb I woulda bought a ton of that for coil potted prodo.

I got about 10lbs of that cheap red strike. Kinda curios how that's gonna work.
Action Glass
02-26-2013, 09:17 PM
It seems they had an abundance of it. It was still there when I checked today. Other ones the were good were persimmon strike, cobalt and Paris green. With those three colors I can do a lot. Their amazonfrit was awesome with ISO and I even rolled it on the outside of the grape to get cool effects. I'm just trying to work around the flaws to offer a good price to my accounts.

Glassnewb....can I buy your andromeda...or maybe just a lb....I love passions but you gotta know the best way to strike this color...try kiln striking!$!...this color was bought out before I could order...I'll even mail you a large mountain glass arts sweatshirt for free...fits like a medium...

When I went on vacation, everything I wanted was sold out. Was able to score a few of the colors I wanted just now on the last day.
Gonna try out that ruby strike, at five bucks an lb, I almost have to!
