hey this is me and my torch. im 17 years old and have been round hot glass since '04 when I decided to take the glass class at school. Glass has become a huge part of my life. I try to go to all the glasss shows I can, and learn as much as I can from artists. Its been hard/expensive to get started but allredy its paying off. My new years Goal is to be in the BABE (bay area bead extravoganza) by November 06. if you live in the bay, look out for me. glass has really taught me that practice makes perfect. if you have any hints/tips/sugestions please feel free to leave a post.

Ok so as you can see i had some trouble. when i went to blow out the bowl hole, it blew out really big. (can someone explane how to blow out a percise hole?) from there i added another tube to form the new bowl. i ran into some leaks around the joint so i decided to be a glass welder and fill in the gaps. works pretty good but looks kind of messy. then i went to blow out the carb hole. same problem. it blew really big, so i added a little filler twisty which worked out nice because without it, it wouldn't sit upright.
so yeah. here it is in all of its glory!
(made on a minor. annealed in a fiber blanket!)
N00bs out there like me it can be done!
