Thank you! My website has some work on it but mainly my work is posted on Instagram. It’s under RudeBoyGlass.
@piccolo. Holy shit!! Just followed you on IG. Damn brother, you are very talented!!
that’s some nice looking food abroham. I run my own business, I make MREs and shelf stable food. It doesn’t pay the bills yet, because I don’t push my product yet, it’s still on the small scale prototype recipe phase.
Making food shelf stable honestly requires a lot of tweaking to get the flavors it has when fresh to carry over. So I consider it a bigger challenge than just cooking. Plus if I get it right when I scale it up I’ll be able to easily donate actual meals to the needy.
If I can pay all my bills and have around 1000 to blow every month I’m happy, I don’t need tons of money, but tons of people need food.
I gotta ask, seriously how hard is it to make an easy to clean glass pipe? I use baking soda and vinegar to clean my glass. (Works like 4 times better than alcohol.) Problem is it’s like scraping resin off the inside and I end up with this loose resin that won’t come out.
And yes I know clean it more often.
For smoking flower no not really. Other than cleaning it after every use, the resin is just so thick it’s hard to clean regardless. I like to wipe my bowl out with a paper towel immediately after each use and that keeps the bowl clean and resin free at all times.
@Tokabowl Thanks for the kind words!!
Do you work with soft glass? Or boro? I have a cricket, and love to make marbles and such. I learned from a snodgrass apprentice! My good buddy @spunchun. Check him out on IG.
Love to see some of your work.
No repairs! Hahah. That’s too common a question.
Love your cheetos bag containing goodies!
Boro, I’ve never actually worked with soft glass before. I started on a GTT Lynx. Then moved up to a phantom and used that for about 8 yrs. I just recently upgraded to a Kobuki.
Awesome! How long have you been at it?
Soft glass is so fun! Whole nother bag of cheetos tho. Feels like infinite time to play without having to reheat with a torch. Jealous of your kobuki. I could make a vortex boulder with that thing. Cricket is just too small.
There are glassblowers making grandma a vase and there are artists who’s medium is glass.
Your work is beautiful.

Just caught up. Lampworking. Wow, you are really an artist. I tried blowing, but never lampwork. I’m more of a technician than an artist. But you are really an artist. I am sooo jealous.
That’s basically what I would be asking, just basic stuff. Anyone that can’t be told what to look for and make their own choices should just hire a brokerage firm
wow - top-notch work! You do amazing work, I would love to smoke out of one of your rigs someday
Sick picture of that bear with human teeth.
I also used to like to draw but stopped didn’t have the motivation I guess.
An old drawing with my first go with color pencils.
Nice glass piece @piccolo

Killer glass! and piccolo was always my favorite DBZ character, I think the first episodes I watched as a kid were when he was training young Gohan
Motivation to create art can be hard even for talented people, love the colored pencil work, I just started working with color all my old stuff is black and white but I’m loving colored pencils and learning to paint this year. Thanks for sharing your art
