so much good work. really enjoy this thread
Made some Neutrino wand dabbers, my beginning foray into making as many ghostbuster themed things as I can reliably make with my "skill" level. Got a slimer millie or two on the way and have a friend with the logo he will trade to me for something or another if my thoughts are correct. Anyways, electric flamingo and illuminati beams and buttons, the movie style beams are orange and red latti's and the others are pink and green slyme encased with said UV. I plan to make some more of the brilliant blue ones (btw anyone not use this color, cause its freaking awesome...) with yellow beams ala the toy pack I and many of us had as kids. Ghosts and traps and the actual packs etc, all things I will be pursuing.

Those are awesome
-Hedless
Thanks! I know they could use some improvements, but it was my first round of them, and I feel pretty good about it. If was was tackling them from an art over function perspective I imagine I could make a pretty detailed/cool set. But I figure for what they are I am happy :)
those are awesome. need like a slimmer carb cap or something
Slightly wonky for something so simple which is why I didn't post it, but you mentioned it so... I made this to go along with one of the wands I sold. It was better when I just had a marble on top, but the original marble I had on it cracked due to me being an ass, and I was making it via request and didn't feel like doing up another as I had other things planned for the evening so I kinda slapped the top rod/handle on and put a little Illuminati ball for gripping. It should work well though I think.
Edit: I realize calling something wonky, then mentioning I sold it is kinda shady sounding... I am my own worst critic, so anything not 100% perfect I tend to for some reason go out of my way to bitch about. It's solid enough I think... or I wouldn't have ever let it leave my shop.

Hadn't been out in the studio in months due to work (aside form the marble exchange), so I was just gonna blast out a quick big clear spoon like I usually do to get reacquainted with the glass, but instead I made this little 10mm mini. I don't normally make "spoon style" rigs, but I had fun making it, so I figured I'd share.

I don't often make oil rigs, and this was my first try at a full color handshaped dome, I kinda dig it. Definitely going to be making a ton more. Even though everybody tosses them and uses bangers around here....

i've been messing around with various fume techs this week and failing mightily. more fume? less fume? more glass? should i drink the fume? should i drink the glass? can i use this fan to make honeycombs?
Dude!!
doc hue actually tossed me at a couple of tutorials last night, jellys are fun to make :D
Working small, I thought I was running out of O2. No luck, didn't empty the tank.

Nomad, hit me up sometime if you'd be down to do a trade....bub for whatever. i need another one of those....last one i bought was in 2000 and it's been cracked for a few years...still holds water but i'm pretty sure it's china shit anyway (bought before i knew the difference from import/american made).

Not exactly fresh out of the kiln, but I made these a few days ago when I could think of nothing better to do.

could do a marble of some sort? idk if you collect as well....
they expect me to make like $1000 worth of that stuff a week. I think it is impossible right now. I keep running out of oxygen.
I am working on getting oxy cons so I can work longer hours.
matter of fact i'll have necklaces very soon...probably about a week. i'm waiting on the cords/clasps, but those beads i posted above i usually make into necklaces. they also fit any of the popular big hole bead charm bracelets, Pandora, Troll etc.
i'll give you a marble (for you?) and a necklace (for gf?) for a bub and spoon. the flower marbles i make typically retail around $75, the necklaces i have no idea those are usually gifts.
these pieces will likely be my "daily drivers" as i'm too damn lazy to make any (and slow at pipes).
First time making tubing like this. Light blue cobalt over star white. I had enough prep for 2 rigs. As I was attaching the joint the piece broke by the moutpiece because I had pulled it too thin. Something I need to fix because it happens too frequently with the shape I am making. I still had it attached to the joint and I was so relieved until 1 second later and it fell out of the female joint I was holding it by and crash landed on the granite bench top :( I still have the stem I might use it on a clear can and make another marble with the scrap.
Had enough for 2 so I made another and I like the way it came out. Used the broken pieces for the marble and a matching dome which came out like shit so I made a clear one

first doughnuts yesterday on free doughnut day yesterday. decided to make a pipe-hammer thing. super wonky and the bowls a little small but I'm happy it survived the kiln.

Here's a dead mini tube I made the other day.
I gave it an old school lot style mouthpiece (inside out) and it has 7 dead themed milli on it.

I like the double implosion :) I keep on having ideas about trying to connect 6 together from a central point outward, but my single ones need way more work before I would ever want to put time into something as such. Either way looking good!
working on a couple of these chalice/vessel thingies for a benefit in town. feets tomorrow. they've been nerve wracking, first couple of large vessels i've been asked to make.. they started out as martini glasses and got a little nuts.
(about 9" tall so far..)
