Corning USA Tubing..

[D. dino i ninjah]

So I was going to try and keep this to my self till I had time to order. . but Ive been bugging wale for about a year .. and I finally got a price list on heavy wall in sizes I can use.. .but its out there .. and you can order it.

Interesting, is this stuff good for fuming buddy?

[BORO]

Yes it is if it's the old u.s.a. Made stuff.

Not so sure about the Japan stuff.

I will try to post up more than that one picture. My phone has other ideas ATM.

Here is a pink comb from last week. I know my "Pyrex Corning" is at least pre 2003.

One strike cycle. Silver only.

I get totally different colors with the same method I use on simax.

Lots of pink/red/purple .... I get the same range of color from struck serendipity...

All of the corning tube I've used has been made in the Czech Kavalier factory, give your case a look at the fine print area.

Its has the same hue as the current batches of blue simax. I'm not sure if anythings been moved to the US yet. Its a pain to inside-out fume, though.

Its not the same as the old usa made corning .. (never will be made again) interesting side note that corning was made at a schott factory .. in parkersburg wv ..pre2003 ...

Anyway this stuff is being made at what was formerly the kimbel/kimax factory .... corning bought it .. the formula is supposed to be the same as kimax .. but I havent used it yet to varify ... u have to ask the guy at wale .. its not on their web site but u can get it drop shiped from the factory now owned by corning ...

Whats up cottonbunny ?

[D. dino i ninjah]

Boro if ur a fan of the red honey combs .. the pyrex cottonbunns has mentioned .. the czech stuff .. is pretty good at making red combs .. the more I work with the bkue stuff the more I like it ... but thats kinda a different therd ...I dint know what the new american stuff is like ...but if its like kimble .. then im totally psyched ..

[BORO]

I have no idea. Mine is OLD , Made in USA.

I will put up a label when I get to work.

That's rad!!!I got 2000 or so old old Corning tubes,guess need to try some fume on them!

[BORO]

I guess it was made in the us.

It's a very pale green tint when you look at the end of a tube/rod.

It may actually be from the late 90's? (98?) I can't remember what was said.



The other box looks the same, just no stamp. I can't read the print on the white paper ( on the end of the boxes)

Sorry, shoud have specified, the new batches of corning are Czech. I've made a bit of headway laying lines down with a more reducing brand of 3mm. Its definitely got a fume learning curve, but Im still new to fume work in the big picture. Works very well though for general purpose and I know some people are doing well with the fuming side of things.

[D. dino i ninjah]

wow boro .. that is a new one there .. I guess this isnt the first time kimble and corning have gotten togeather .. that stuff has to be oollllllllldddd like pre 98 even ..

[Abe Fleishman]

Corning bought Kimble over a year ago.

[D. dino i ninjah]

this is what I got for a price list from wale .. I ordered some 32 heavy today .. there was some confusion over weather they had to ship it from NJ or had it in stock .. but it is available. I don't think there is a big push from them right now to sell it because they have plenty of the czech stuff .. and no usa made rod .. but who knows Im sure If enough people call and ask for rod. theyll make some

Nice i wish I could get some of the old Kimble that I scored from Mike road tripped with Brandon to a sci Shop in Oklahoma and brought it and a shitload of quartz and other Goodies .

I think that's where B got the first gen herbie I have looked at every time I visit

[Greymatter Glass]

I thought Nipro bought the Vineland plant?

That's the money shot right there. Once upon a time, Pyrex was where it was at and simax was garbage
