@thadthrasher

not quite sure what you mean by like "our torches" but if you work for the willy and wally fam crew then, yeah fo sho. I've been rocking GTT's for ten years! GTT's are like a Rolls, Lamborghini, and Ferrari all rolled up into 1 bad boy, killa torch.

What GTT torch is that and how much did that setup run you ?

[bzglass]

@Moze9 The torch is a Mirage. My set up cost a few thousand. Anyone starting out, could do it between about $500. to $5000.00

The type of glass you want to make is really what will dictate how much your start up costs are going to be.

@Moze9 well,, im not into selling my pieces, bartering on the other hand. traded this little pipe i made the the other day to this guy who had all these pipes disguised as hemp bracelets. that kinda shit makes me so much happier than money ever will. it was a dope little invention ya kno, had a little tube running though it and a nice wood bead mouth piece. and now me and him have now made a significant human connection thats not just connected to trading paper you know...shit im rambling..lol!

[Moze9]

@travism420 Is it bring in any type of income or are you just creating stuff for now ?

[travism420]

@Moze9 sure, you just have to get past any dout. a good teacher also helps. i havent payed for any classes(yet) learned every thing i know from friends who are just a few steps ahead of me. im making pipes marbles and pretty much anything that fits in my little bowl of vermiculite. might try n post a video of my work if i get the chance.

@travism420 Is it easy to learn ? I'm looking to us make pipes, wine glasses, bottles and other abstract sculptures
