  1. I'm not really sure if this thread belongs here but I was just wondering like i just got a spoons and and have used it prolly like 15to 20 times and I noticed that it is getting bubbles in the glass..is this because its a shitty pipe and does this mean they are gonna break or is this normal?
    Answers are much appreciated

  4. That just formed or its always been there??

    if its was always there it looks just an air pocket... shouldn't lead to any problems. smoke up man :bongin:
     
  5. I just noticed them I don't think they have always been there but I only see it wen blazed so could have just not noticed it lol
     
  6. They weren't as noticeable until there was some resin behind them. When the glass was completely clear there was nothing behind them to reflect light back. Now there is something behind them and and the bubbles are bending the light making them very visible. Even when you clean this pipe you'll probably notice them now.

    It does mean that the glass blower probably isn't a true master of their art. But it's still a good looking piece. The overall structural integrity of the piece shouldn't be in jeopardy unless you find them near welds or places like that. Of course a good drop could cause a crack right on the bubble, but a good drop will probably cause a crack anyway.
