I blew my first glass pipe this afternoon - pictures!

I happen to get in a lesson today on making pipes. I had time to make two little pipes. The first one pictured if the first little pipe I have ever made. The second pictured is the other pipe I made after the first. I have made marbles, pendants, and bong bowls so far. Today was the first day attempting to blow a pipe. I think it went well, anyway here are the photos. Enjoy!

Sweet pieces you got there, That's a really nice accomplishment to smoke from your own glass bowl that you blew.

How are the lessons going? You should let us know about them...are they expensive?

From now on any pipe that I make that comes out in good condition will be sold at the local headshop. Over the next few weeks I should get good at making them. Then I will make like 50 to sell at the store.

Congrats....that's so awesome!!!

Do you think your artistic eye helps in the process, or is the method more mechanical in nature?

Most of the places you would pay to learn glassblowing is softglass. It is diffrent then the kind of glass you use to make pipes. Search around your area for a glassblowing studio that does borosilicate. Usualy you will find places that have little workshops. Were you meet 3 or 4 times and they teach you a bunch or marbles or how to make a vessel (wine glass) they usualy cost 250+ and can run up to 600. It costs alot to pay your way and take lessons. I am an apprentice and i get free lessons and junk.

It helps. Choosing colors, and the form of the pipe is all based on astetic choices.
