Lampwork and glass blowing

[Justdragons]

Anyone take part in this as a hobby or a job? I'm looking to learn ATM as I've been stalking a good forum for awhile now and it looks like great fun. Not alot of places to learn as far as I can see. If you do I'd love pics of your works.

Awesome thanks man
yeah sounds like we are two of a kind
when I see something I think is cool I do a search for how to.
Its a bit strange the day before I saw this thread I was talking to a lady whos husband and her once owned a glass blowing business,

About the same with me
hahaha I don't think any one is really a master at reptiles because there is so much to learn, new species are being found all the time and there are very few species in captivity compared to the wild.
