i thought youall should know.
after blowing glass i realised that doubble or tripple blowing glass would do nothing but make it weaker so i was wondering what the story on it was, turns out that its just a bullshit sales dealy

no its not, inside out glass is actually a technique although its name is slightly misleading.

one would thing that a pipe was turned inside out and thats how the color got on the inside, but in actuality it is laid on the inside of the glass to start, leaving a smooth and clear layer of usually thick glass on the outside.

yea, you make like a funnel out of a tube of glass, and put color and whatnot inside the funnel, and then melt the funnel bback to tube shape, then into pipe shape. ...

zippoz, fuming and clear are the absolulte best way to get inside out down..... flare the end, then fume the hell out of the inside, and then dot it with clear, somewhat big dots, and then close it... heat from the outside of the glass to not burn all the fuming away, and you'll be set

One important thing about inside out work (as you might have figured out from regular work) is that the flame will go thru the open end, INSTANTLY heating the point you pullled  to an extremely high temperature, and sometimes shooting flames out the end where you would blow normaly, well, with insided out work, it happens al the time... so get a bunch of corks from the hardware store, same pull out trays as the screws and whatnot, and stick that into the blow tube. You might have to cut the cork down a bit to fit... but this is how you keep from burning yourself... :lol:

btw, wha'ts the worste you've burned yourself?

mine was this one time, i had a carbon rod that had been red hot, for some reason, and i set it down, and went to grab a rod of clear, and it was dark in the shop (bad lighting in the back of the bus at first) and my fingers touched the carbon rod i set down 5 seconds earlier (it wasnt red hot right then, but really close)... and i got it about 2 inches  off the ground and it occoured to me, as i heard the sizzle of my skin, that  that shit was hot.  wierd thing about burns, is that the surface of your skin get's a 3rd degree burn instantly, while the rest is fine, maybe with a 2nd degree burn under it, but it dont really hurt unless heat is applied to it.. cause it cant, it's dead skin.... gettin burned sucks...

there is no sales gimmick to "double blown" glass. "Doubel Blown" is a term used to describe a heavy or thick piece. Its much easier to say double blown than this piece is very very thick. Anyone who is into glass or making glass will know that double blown is pretty much a slang term for a thick piece. I dont know a single blower who wouldnt know that, but if your not really into it its a good piece of information.

its not a gimmick its just something not often clarified (also do you know how hard it is for a manufacturer or distributor to keep track of pipes by weight?????? One of the ways we do that is by labeling the very thick ones "double blown.")

:peace: :peace: :peace:

In conclusion: If a pipe is labeled "double blown" it means its very thick.

and the only thing that makes inside out glass slightly misleading is people getting technical and saying well "technically" its not inside out. Anyone with brains can tell the pipe isnt "inside out" its a term used to describe how the pipe looks and feels. :peace:

The worest I burned myself was.. well I worked with glass for a few very stoned months last year, and forget a lot. However, it was a shop of cool rainbow kids who mainly made pipes and dread beads and pendants, and that sort of thing for local headshops, so they had a few good torches.

I was making a few mushrooms beads to make into necklaces and make some cash when I was doing a reach for to put the punny on to make the loop when I looked at the wall for some reason and put my arm in the torch for a second. It took about 1/2 second to realize.. And well, OW.

I kept working for a few hours, because it didn't hurt to badly and smoked a few more pipes, and OW, the next few weeks really hurt.

as of yet i havent burned myself that badly, i have pretty quick reflexes, but a very bad memory. a few of my burns are as follows...
one putting a hot end of a blow point in my mouth!
grabbing hot carbon rods, espeically that little one!
grabbing freshly pulled points where they meet the tube!

oh and if youre blowing with a hoodie, once i had a piece of glass fly into my poclet red hot. had to dig it out or set on fire.... luckily it didnt burn too bad

well most people i try and sell to citch about doubble blown glass and what not, i thought it might have been some sort of technique for encasments, but apparently not. its just a marketing term for think glass, all im tryin to say

yes i think were just looking at it from two different points, you were looking at it from a technique standpoint and I from a selling standpoint. :peace:

it's a sales gimmic, glass blowers dont buy pipes and in stores they say 'double blown' as opposed to extra thick or double thick.
