my progression

Loving that elephant! Nice work on it and the chillums. The one does look a bit restricted in the neck area, might clog up fast, but the rest look great to me

Make an elephant pipe!

Awesome :D

elephant pipe, i'll have to try that one of these days!

Absolutely beautiful sculptural work!!! And agreed on the tiny bowl hole thing. I've tossed quite a few chillums cause I condensed it too much :\

Practice Practice Practice

(Such a weird looking word seeing it three times in a row)

Always fun to see your progress man!!

thanks man. yah the hole looks tiny but i sold the red and blue one. i know they are happy with the red one, it was a friend i sold them to. if they are unhappy with the blue one i will be happy to swap it for them. made these last night. i am loving making these. going to order more frit, different colors and some more tubing. i want to pump these out!

Wonderful consistency! Beautiful colors too! How do you or do you measure the amount if frit you use for each one???

thanks dude I do somewhat measure. I made this little funnel out of 9mm i blew a bubble and ripped half off so i have like a half bubble funnel. I use between 2-3 scoops of frit for these. looks like this kinda with a bigger bubble

going to try and unload some of my stuff today. would it be dumb for me to let this case go for $150? Thoughts and comments appreciated.

Man those are all such nice pieces!!! All your cobalt combs on the left are great! Personally though... I would make attempt to get around 200 or so... but then again there will be others that say they couldn't possibly get that much for their work. But you have to Consider your market. Your other pieces sold for great prices comparatively to the naysayers...

It's your art and your pay my friend!!! But I have read about, seen, and experienced many an artist who's made it say...

They really just wish they had charged more for their work in the beginning...

Be smart and melt on man!!!

yah its really tough. thanks for the encouragement. I was going to ask 12 for the cobalt and 8 for the onies on the right. Then maybe a case discount? I dunno hah this is hard!

That's a great idea actually!!! Then if he decided to get the whole case drop off 20 from the price and go 180 or maybe 175.

Another thought for you depending on the kind of place your selling too. You could also do a deal if the person buys both they get a set of pendants or maybe a handful of clear condensed bowls. Some sell them as "Tasters" which I thought was a great idea.

But obviously don't sell it too them for 180 or whatever still charge your full 200.

What I'm trying to learn to do is make enough and sell enough each time to specifically get certain things ya know?? Like ohh I need exactly 180 dollars for an order of tools and odds and ends for example

i like it! they just asked for an email to check out pics. hopefully they like what they see and i can go pop in there. ill be posting my results! woo!

Hell yea!!! Good luck!

Went really well. Wanted the whole case but wanted some variety in the spoons. Got close to what I wanted just going to swap 7 of the spoons out for some variety. Pretty stoked!

Awesomeness!!! Hope you got all you wanted for the case even if you do have to switch some stuff out!

Yeah!! They loved the chillums. Was thinking of doing some io frit spoons with and some different cobalt ones. Maybe bring some other stuff when I show up with the rest of the order :)

Trying to get hollow pendants down. I love making these. Need to learn some new techs for the front.
