Glass blowing - water bong no.98

[@ajroutdoors9806]

The music made me feel like I was on cocaine

[@Karaon]

you must listen to Enya on daily basis then

[@DElkan]

Adrian Ramirez This cocaine makes me feel like I'm on this song

[@jftworth]

Wow now I know why a good piece costs so damn much. You have given me a new respect for blowers I thought they were just assholes that over priced their shit but now I know it must cost a lot of money to keep torch running and it looks like it takes a lot of skill to make glass like that. Keep it up.

[@S0b13t]

noticed, looked through the comments to see if anyone else did, I'm so glad you did.

[@catman72]

Man, i love you for showing us how you do it. you're a King !

[@Smoketrees503]

I bought a torch a month ago and learned everything by ear. Havent been happier in my life.

[@Grimmnir65]

Dude! That is so bad ass! The helical touch is too cool.

[@iEATedibles]

how do you learn how to blow glass? do you take classes for it or can you major in it? or do you have to learn on your own?

[@Gunzprobish]

Great Video I wondered what kind of skills it took to create glass pieces. Looks fun. and awesome choice of drum n bass.

[@beboppinhaley]

@spheret those are machine crafted and then blown into the design. @bongintv thanks dude I love watchin artists. Im actually going to be starting on some hand blown jewelry soon enough, to work my way up, and your video made me smile.

[@MetalxXxMayhem]

I would be proud to own that bong!! Kudos to the blower!!!

[@BigBoyReefs]

Wtf where you put the weed

[@stevenreynolds40]

where does the weed put you?

[@SwedishWarGoat.]

God bless this man and his awesome skills!

[@SpencerG425]

Can we all agree that this man might be the coolest man alive

[@1harmonicapete]

Good job, thanx for the instruction...copied your idea for a wood tool rack too..came out nice Harmonicapete,Maine

[@mitchykinsxx]

You are amazing at what you do? Do you have like a website or something where someone could look at all work? Also, do you do custom pieces?

[@Scruffie440]

i would actually want to learn this. i love all art and this is one that i would like to learn! supper awesome to watch this stuff

[@gympvox]

awsome dude really want to get into the hobby/business where do u get your supplys like the gas then iv heard the torches are really the pricey part of the whole thing and another question does all glass need to be slow cooled in a forge. awsome bong

[@Alayna87Beatz]

@zigcom42 there is a rubber washer between the bong and the bowl. That stops the glass on glass contact

[@myblackabyss]

Great work mate, that's awesome skill!

[@UniteForgetLeftRight]

i need to try this out sometime, ive done alot of ornamental iron in my garage

[@jasonpollard6614]

This is really an art form that you can actually put to use

[@drgonzo212]

Absolutely. That's what makes the difference between a bong that costs 600 bucks (A true 7mm all around RooR Behemoth) and one that costs 80 (5mm on the tube and 3.2mm or less where it's been blown out).

[@240SSONLY]

what kind of sorcery and firer i witchcraft is this? spectacular... keep up the good work

[@XxmattitudexX]

thanks for sharing ,lovein your studio set up !

[@AlexZanderVEVO]

with theese torches, do you still need that oven to cool them? or does it not build as tension?

[@yaccowacco]

@BonginTV i am going to start glass blowing soon and i was just wondering.. how do you get the glass on glass to be 14 or 18 mm every time. i was just wondering because that is one of the things i still dont know.

[@tcrusader]

Would blowing a large bubble in the glass like that make it too thin?

[@UniteForgetLeftRight]

can you take a break before you put in in the tempering kelm or would it crack?

[@Dieselboy420]

Badass DnB tune. Where does the slider go?¿¿¿ Name of tune please???

[@scippap]

No carb, no bowl, and personally thats a really skinny neck. but 10/10 would buy that vase.

[@StephenRoberts99]

Not every bong has a carb.

[@spooderman9976]

A car on a bong?????

[@EdwardGordington]

Spooder Man they mean a carby aka shotty u let go of a hole in the bong and the air that comes through pushes the smoke up into your lungs, like instead of taking the cone piece out, its mostly an Australian thing.

[@prawngravy18]

chubby cones we do it alot in england too! :D

[@EdwardGordington]

gamefreak1296 hahahahaha XD

[@the_original_Bilb_Ono]

yes, lift the bowl and suck air through the down stem into the water. it still gives you that blast of fresh air but you dont have a hole in your bbong and you dont have to use two hands to hit it.

[@Lolp821]

Where would you go to learn how to blow glass? I'm in the UK - well N.Ireland - and I can't find any courses or training programmes.

[@homeslicery92]

@GregTheCreator the blowtorches youd find from say home depot wont work (ive tried believe me) and the flame is too small heat enough of the glass up to really work it esp using pyrex which is designed to be heat resistant

[@jasonsheil]

How long have you been at this man?

[@catifa24]

hello measures used pipe diameter and thickness thanks! excellent work

[@milldabeast519]

@ishthealaskan if your 15 and carry a bong around in a back pack yea a thicker one would be better. but there no need for thick glass usually if u drop em they break thick or thin...

[@1harmonicapete]

just wonderin wat size the tubing is..30mm?thanx for the vid...Pete

[@ATLTraveler]

how much money in butane do you go through in a day or so ?

[@Spike1joel]

Great workmanship!

[@andrewwohltman5804]

How to you get the glass pipe that big. Do you just blow it evenly or what?

[@xeeweexRC]

As a question, What gas are you burning for that torch?

[@matthewmcmillan3148]

How long did blowing this peice of art take

[@Dakukobura]

How much do the raw materials cost? I mean, how much did it cost you just to make this piece, and how much did you sell it for?

[@CtrlAltSk8]

@BonginTv pretty sure al the parts of the perc are glass blown and joined together

[@jaypayan]

that was amazing. but i didnt see him make a hole for the downstem?

[@BongMcPuffin]

@joejumps4fun I managed to get set up from scratch for roughly $2000. $2200 or so if I had gone with the better torch I was looking at. This includes a Paragon SC2 kiln at $600ish, and the Sundance #420 pipemakers kit for $420, and then I spent some on propane and oxygen (had to pay a deposit, and then I have to pay for the cylinder exchange) plus a new propane regulator. The rest I spent on other tools not included in the kit, and especially heavy-wall borosilicate tubing/rods of all sizes!

[@chronburgundy5341]

The smoke still goes through the water...?

[@jessekademenos3219]

Omg where do you buy them?

[@narutorasengan162]

I was thinking the same but if you go on the website he actually heats up the glass, pulls it out, then make the whole for a glass on glass piece.

[@DreamTheory1994]

that looks to be super thin glass. I would be worried about breaking it.

[@7Seven1OneThree3]

+DreamTheory was thnking this the entire time. i feel a vid on how to reinforce the glass would be much more useful.

[@victoriamcgrogan994]

now I understand why bongs are so expensive

[@phatphuk7461]

What's the name of that tool with the two little wheels that he rests the bong on???

[@buddylikeguitar]

this is a stupid question, but why dosen the glass go black from the flame?

[@WilliamPfeffer4]

I Really liked this motion picture Post more!

[@aliciaclark5208]

That was cool and I won't mind the pie either

[@clarksglassworks4042]

too bad its not a talkie!!! lol motion picture. who talks like this

[@WilliamPfeffer4]

i do

[@skunkhollow1]

***** I like the way you roll

[@xalldayeveryday420x]

Hey im 17 and my brother is 21 and we want to get into glass blowing, can i get some help on finding a good beginner torch. Also where do you buy the glass from?

[@samuraigraffix]

how bad does it hurt to inhale instead of blow???

[@Hippyhill415]

That was a sick ass bong!

[@harlonman101]

theres also a college in california for glass blowing

[@mydoggchico]

how do u get in to making these? like take courses?

[@a1M0sT972]

possibly one of the coolest jobs out there

[@SativaHunter]

its gotta be really rewarding taking nothing and turning it into something amazing

[@emorales00012]

where do you get the glass you use to make that?

[@Jus4ya]

@BonginTv wat do you need to do wat u do

[@Tide12NC]

Great talent these people have.

[@NewLeaf419]

damn missing the best part the hole pop. sweet video one love Bongin

[@zammystavez]

How much would finished product retail for?

[@NothingButSauce]

How do you get into something like this?

[@fladoodleflamy]

How long did it take to craft that?

[@zdfsbnsdfn]

is that like 32 mm hvy wall?

[@herpderp437]

is it difficult to learn to blow glass?

[@amba144]

Great work!! The bottom looks very fragile though after you blew it up.

[@sandnewts]

+much games (muchgames) I very much want to learn to do this if only just so I never have to buy another bong.

[@amba144]

+The Sloth King same reason here lol

[@eriklandon3648]

This is truly amazing

[@liveywfstuder177]

where can i buy silver fuming or pyrex tubes like that???

[@monstermiataman]

damn thats sweet. how much?

[@Jdub4869]

Seriously how do you get into profession like that?

[@fontario4]

Could you tell me is german glass any good?

[@tabaron3334]

Actually, That's a vase lol.

[@StephenRoberts99]

Notice the picture before the video, that's the fully finished product. Any bong will look like it's made for the use of a vase ( I actually have family that are very against smoking but have perfectly operational bongs in their house disguised and vase' with the bowl removed ).

[@SomeDude138]

So cool how its done.

[@Urahara705]

I just have to say, that today, 5.11.2015, there are 420k views. well done people.

[@Urahara705]

***** haha I know right! This video is magic!

[@christianorozco1154]

Eric Johnson and that day was my birthday

[@Urahara705]

Happy Belated Birthday! :P

[@everythinglife2334]

Are you guys friends? I'm confused

[@zigcom42]

Umm, what about the hole for the bowl? Is it gonna be glass on glass?

[@TheMasterCheif1997]

Agreed anthonyyrs it a vase because there needs to be another opening

[@TheNewBreed760CA]

"Hey Tom how's it going I haven't seen you since high school! What are you doing?" "I make bongs" haha

[@pencilgoboom]

@BonginTv no ive seen perculators hand-made you just gotta use certain techniques

[@HoboJIm117]

@BonginTv Really? I was under the impression that thicker glass would make a sturdier piece, but I may be mistaken. Could you enlighten me? Not trying to be flippant or disrespectful, just an interested viewer :D

[@Sakilolo]

How do u become a glass bong blower?

[@TheSh4adow]

@BonginTv Hey man. Could you teach me how to do this? I wanna make ACTUAL homemade glass bong's. Or if you can't teach me, do you know a school, or anybody who can?

[@SnozBerryQueen]

That was so awsome thanks for sharing. Always wondered

[@lumos2maxima]

what is the track playing? SO BIG

[@BDOWNPRODUCTIONS]

Bryan “B.Down” K is a creative force and small business owner in the Twin Cities, widely-known and respected for his unique skill for glass-blowing. Born and raised in the cultural center of North Minneapolis, he began his glass blowing journey at the early age of 17 as an apprentice, in exchange for a promise to a mentor that he would avoid the troubles of street life. As an ambitious young man expecting his first child, this appealed to his desire to grow while providing for his new family. After nearly a year dedicated to studying the finer points of the craft, he began to invest in his own equipment to operate from a home workshop, in order to balance the needs of building his business and family. Several years into his progression, B.DowN’s skill and business grew to a size requiring a larger space to expand on his projects- so, he relocated his shop to the bustling area of uptown Minneapolis, in partnership with the popular smoker’s destination, Glassland. For the next four years, Bryan’s relationships and portfolio of work expanded to multiple clients and artists across the Twin Cities region and beyond. Always diligent in advancing his craft and successes, B.Down’s vision for his work continues to evolve: for the last few years, he has trained over 10 apprentices in the art and science of glass blowing, and plans to work with countless others in his newest (and independently-ran) studio space, equipped with multiple workstations, where aspiring glassblowers (including members of his family) are under his tutelage. Alongside his professional trade, B.DowN is also an active member of the Twin Cities Music scene, where he facilitates the growth and development of numerous artists through his multi-purpose workshop space, which for many years has included a recording studio.B.Down is a family man, independent thinker, entrepreneur, and artist who continues to impact and influence other creatives across the Twin Cities arts community.

[@jmlipper94]

[@Gnurklesquimp]

Good drum n' bass man :)

[@wildsillywilly55]

I bet you have the coolest bong at your house =)

[@deathcorebuttplug]

This is like Rolf Harris for stoners "Can ya tell what it is yet" "Dude waaat???"

[@iamapineapple5724]

How does one get into glass blowing?

[@thetombawaits8998]

Pine Apple blow glass

[@mcgoo721]

Mostly people apprentice for it. Find a local shop or guy doing it, show you really are interested in it, and they'll show you. You'll have to buy your own materials, and it can take a long time. It's like learning an instrument; you start with real simple, little things and work your way up.

[@thrivesurvive]

beautiful!

[@zachatake]

Where does the Stem go

[@Elite69Halo]

@BonginTv yeah, durability.
