Fresh out of the kiln

[H1JACK3R]

Nevermind, sorry for derailing this I thought it was just something universal I hadn't heard of. It's your work, call it whatever you want, didn't mean to stir the pot, sorry again everyone.

I make reference to California style and New Mexico style and east coast style from working in those areas and what I learned in them.
That's all.

[istandalone24/7]

A California style uses 25.4 mm x 4 mm and 32 mm x 4 mm.

actually no it doesn't. i'm pretty sure people use whatever size tubing they feel comfortable using, not so much saying "i'll work in the Idaho style today, with only used crack stems aka 9mm for tubing"

this is another case of nomad being nomad, and me being an asshole in the morning.

[Nomad]

Yes you are right but to be specific that is what Tony from goodstash in hermosa beach California wanted. With big bottoms.
The customers in la loved them.

I'm pretty sure crack stems are 12 mm standard wall. So you can clean it with a cigarette and get all the crack juice from the inside of the stem and smoke it.
So I'm told.

I use 9.5 mm for downstems though.

Back to the piece I was making yesterday before I ran out of propane.

[istandalone24/7]

all i'm saying is that the fucking size of the tube you use (or the size of the bowl push) doesn't dictate "california style" or whatever. that's pure horseshit mate. selling point for the custies.

[Nomad]

Yeah this conversation makes me want to try some 32 mm.
I could get $5 more a bubbler for my large.

For fuck's sake how many times do people have to say that this thread is supposed to be for pics only??

Nomad, it is almost like you do it on purpose. This is not facebook, you don't need a separate response for every thought that pops in your head.

Not exactly fresh out of the kiln, but I had to post something to be fair lol.

Here was a custom request for a "Wallace and Grommet type green sheep." It tried to keep it cartoony

[Nomad]

I call this Venetian style because I learned the reverse axis from watching Leno tagliapiatra work.
I will spare you the rest it's production

A little all syzygy pawn mini tube, and a matching directional pawn carb cap. Grommie 14mm to 10mm joint on this one, with a diamond cut two slit diffy!

First cup I've made in a long time. Loving the Beth grand. Very excited to be focusing more on cups soon. Holds 12 oz ( barely)

[Kloppglass]

Very fresh work is very clean

[BORO]

Swim:I have pics I want to upload here, but it tells me its is invalid. ANy advice on what I should convert them too if they were taken with an iphone 5

If I crop or modify a picture , it will say "invalid."

If I take a screen shot after I modify a image. If I try to post the unaltered screen shot it works.

I'm on a iPhone 7 , so idk wtf. Just a thought.

Thursday Throw back piece. First 2layer I ever made. Circa 2011/2012 winter?

Was attempting to prototype a round bottom flask for an interesting commission and ended up running into some issues. Decided to turn it into a decanter for my parents' upcoming anniversary. Accidentally made them a buttplug stopper...

[Nomad]

The grand must be an awesome torch. I can make like 8 oz wine glasses with my bravo but it's difficult. No way I could do a tumbler.

[Nomad]

Well I have not had a drink in 2 years. So cups are not a priority.
But I get asked to make cups for Jewish ceremonies at temple. I have made a few also.

Actually I found on ancestry.com I'm really half English and Irish.

[istandalone24/7]

you just don't get it do you Nomad? if you want to spew random brain droppings, this isn't the thread for it. it's almost like you NEED the attention. maybe talk to you shrink about it? OR get a blog, or a thread all of your own. really it is annoying.
