How Do You Make Glass Smoking Pipes?
Glass smoking pieces are preferred by many smokers because glass does not affect the taste of tobacco to a great degree. Glass pipes are also aesthetically pleasing, and many different designs and shapes can be made during the pipe-forming process. For glassblowing enthusiasts with an intermediate understanding of their craft, a glass smoking pipe is a good project to undertake. Glass pipes can be made for you or friends of yours that smoke, or you may even decide to sell them commercially. Wear protective clothing, such as jeans, work gloves and safety goggles, before operating your torch. Tie back your hair to keep it away from the torch. Turn on your stationary torch. Hold your glass tubing with both hands at each end of the tubing. Bring the tubing towards the flame, so the middle comes into contact with heat. Rotate the glass for 10 seconds, only allowing the tubing to touch the flame, and then bring the tubing completely into the flame. Continue rotating the glass tubing quickly
