im looking to buy a special order multi bubbler that looks great but still hits well and im betting that people here know about some talented glass blowers
ya know ... im not quite sure .. i have about $700 or so set aside ..it really depends on how bedazzled it ends up... im not sure what the typical price would be i hope its a good deal less than $700
This inline bubbler was 700 when I asked him (crondo) how much it was . When I have a little more cash set aside I'm most likely going to have a custom aquatic themed inline done.
i want that too.. but what im currently looking for is a bubbler ..perhaps 4-5 chambers with a good size bowl colored nicely and not in the typical row like configuration i want it a bit more ...wacky SORT of like this 11+" Heavy Glass Ultimate Bubbler Water Pipe or this http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...0_97702078498_601558498_2157101_1882623_n.jpg not exactly like them of course but i hope u get the point
im more interested in the shape/configuration than virtuoso color patterns i cant find anything in a crazy shape other than the one i showed on glassartplus and i dont want that one the exact style and stuff just doesnt strike me
you can't just say you want a piece and expect to get it, you have to contact a blower who makes custom pieces and ask him/her to make it for you
yes i have gotten off topic .back to the question i asked : who are some good glass artists and how do i contact them
an inline filtering your bubbler is all you need all those extra chambered bubblers are usually cheap crap. Most of the contact info you can get from here Glass Art - Glass Artists.org e.g. If you want uhmmmmm some crazy shape shit and don't want worked sections and all that ya need a bates/hops collab. e.g.
the whole point of me starting this thread was to find a glass blower who makes good hitting custom bubblers so i can contact him and eventually buy one
in my opinion anything with more than 2-3 chambers has a bit too much drag. your better off going inline perc.
HOPS, Ghost, Salt, Slinger, Snic, J-Lee, Stratishere, Korey Cotnam, Hippo, Gibson, White Flame, Alex K, Andy D, D-Wreck, Shock Wave, Lucy, T-Baller, PJ, BLUE, Scott Deppe, etc.. Anyways, where are you located? Can you give us more information about the piece you want made? Then maybe someone can point you at a talented glass blower with the style you're looking for in your area.
im looking for a 3 or 4 chamber bubbler and as for the style? i want it "wacky yet awesome" meaning oddly shaped such as the bubblers i linked pics of earlier i am in the boston area at the moment but will soon be moving to Vermont
You might want to visit the FullMeltBubble forums and see what the members have available in the glass market. Maybe make that exact original post in the "Buyer's Market" Section and see what is offered to you. It's always interesting. Also if you end up figuring out exactly what you want, design, construction, and all, Talk to JP of Toro or Brandon of Kind Creations and they'll do it for you as long as you pay them.
