PUMPKIN PRODUCTION AT PALO ALTO HIGH SCHOOL.

We are the paly glass blowing team. We are a bunch of high schoolers and professional glass blowers who work all day and night in front of 2100 degree furnaces to produce beautiful works of art which everybody loves!

Come support us at the Great Glass Pumpkin Patch held at the Palo Alto Art Center in, you guessed it, Palo Alto, CA!

The Great Glass Pumpkin Patch is held every year where artists from all around the Bay Area show off their pumpkins.

Buy our pumpkins so we can continue doing what we love! Ours are the most awesome looking pumpkins! If you SOMEHOW can't distinguish our pumpkins from the others, we have green tags on them that say "Palo Alto Glass Blowing"! Buy them! Our prices are very reasonable for the quality of these pumpkins! We produce only the highest quality pumpkins. And we have some of the largest selection of colored pumpkins! So you'll never have trouble finding the pumpkin right for you! And if you can't find the right one, we have Palo Alto Glass Blowers on hand to tell you about each one.

Whether you're looking for something to be the center piece of your dining room table, or to live amongst your other collectibles, you will be able to find the pumpkin for you!

We are Palo Alto Glass Blowing and we love what we do! Keep us hot!

Thank you!

maybe I can be more constructive. I learned to blow glass in this very studio, David is awesome! I've since worked in a production studio making huge (6 or 7 gather) plates, and we boxed one every ten minutes. The key is this, nobody should be sitting doing nothing. It's been a while, so I'm not sure if Anthony still works at Paly on weekends with Mike and Steve doing production work, but if they do; watch them, a lot - copy what they do as far as teamwork, you'll be much more productive :)

no one is acting immature or defensive, youre being a punk bitch thats trying to act like you know everything about running a line. make pumpkins better then us and as many as us in the time frame that we finish and then talk. Post a video faggot.

[aguafiesta69]

you are also a fag and probably suck at blowing glass. make a video with better pumpkins and then try to talk shit.

[aguafiesta69]

youre a fucking fag. stfu, you couldnt make a pumpkin if your life depended on it. don't act like you know how to make them if you've never done them before.

[HawtGlass]

yes, maybe its time to mature a little bit

[HawtGlass]

i just find it a little annoying how you call me out saying you can do better but are totally against proving it.

[HawtGlass]

#1: f blow hoses.

2: you can make 3 GOOD pumpkins in less that 38 minutes with 2 people?

3. opening doors yourself isn't that easy considering we don't have a place to hang a door hook (like a heat shield)

[HawtGlass]

k thanks.

we'll stick to what we've got. it works and we get 3 pumpkins done in about 30 minutes. thats pretty damn good.

[dragade101]

it is just some ideas in case you want to improve the line. take it or leave it but you dont have to act immature and defensive about it.

[HawtGlass]

there isn't much traffic either. the only crossing of traffic is the two stemmers who have to share one dish of color. and we stagger the pumpkins so there aren't two pumpkins, or stems being made.

maybe you should come check out the shop and see how we do it before you tell me what i SHOULD be doing. because its kind of annoying when someone who hasn't been to this shop in YEARS and hasn't blown glass in MONTHS tells us what to do in our own shop.
