Just a heads up, you can have a piece custom made just like that for ~$400. Johnny seems to have VERY fair pricing and is super easy to work with on custom orders

Wow, $400 seems like a VERY fair price for that piece. It looks like lots of work went into it. Enjoy yours, looks gorgeous!

I don't know why there are not way more post in this thread. There is so much interesting stuff out there. If you see something cool or an amazing deal you should share it. Don't try to keep all the cool glass to yourself.

I saw this the other day and thought it was cool. Never seen this before and thought it was kind of better than a dabuccino. I'm not a coffee person and want to hit this thing pinky out

This thread is so not work safe, but I am dying to get home and check out the colourful pipes that I was able to catch a glimpse of while speed-scrolling past them!

Why won't anyone post in here? It is such a good thread to share cool glass!

I just found this today and was blown away. Check out the function video on his page.

These are too cool! Thanks for starting!

Hopefully DHgate can get something like this one day. I be the originals are pricy. They look worth it though!

Oh I thought the colors on his page were standard colors available for sale. I understand that some are more rare and expensive like uranium and stuff. Are all these colors on his page his creation @VaPeD&CoNfUsEd ? Or are they available for purchase through various glass companies

Some are available some are discontinued or extinct colors. He's been in the game for a long time and has access to some of the hottest colors there are. People beg him to make goblins out of colors they create just to get the notoriety. Those goblins usually go for 2k+.

Most of Shelbo's goblins are done in readily available colors, but he is also given small amounts of experimentation pulls to see how they turn out using different methods. There are certain goblin colors that you'll never see again.

Edit: Ha! What he said. ^^^^^

@blankrider heck out the glass alchemy color chart. They use shelbos goblins for the whole chart. I have a giant poster of it on the wall in my shop.
I think more of those posters are in shops than actual goblins!! I see those charts in the background of every shop picture on IG. Where exactly do you get one? I'd like to hang one down in my cave.

I have been dealing with this IG glass blower:

http://instagram.com/oil_glass_contraptions

http://websta.me/n/oil_glass_contraptions

Communication has been excellent, prices are great and i have been sent pictures via text from the artist of various sections of the work!

For a custom order it was very fast! Although i did not ask for too much, just the colours i was after and then i gave the artist free reign to do whatever he wanted!
TWO days later the piece was finished!!
I was sent a text with a picture of the USPS shipping and the tracking number!

I should receive it next week and will post some better quality pictures and a function vid!
It is a Klein Incycler!
Will post pics soon!



I'm thinking of ordering one. Can you send pics? Also how does it function?

Almost there...

I will post up some pics today, sick as a dog at the moment...
I will say that this guy has improved DRASTICALLY since he fabricated my recycler. The new stuff on IG looks pretty cool, he is into Dino recyclers/in cycles now.

It is much smaller than I anticipated and it is meant for oil use...
Silly me asked for a 18mm female joint as all my glass is in that size.
The large joint looks ridiculous on the small WT...
Functions great and has a nice whirlpool as it drains!

I turn to this guy when I am looking for a lung busting cool rip!!
Somehow I find I can just keep pulling, no hints of dry throat or tickles that make me cough!!

Pictures later when I get my ass out of bed!!

Thanks! Hope you feel better man, I was in the same position last week haha. Yes I wanted to buy an incycler but this guy is kind of a dick and hassle to text so far. Asked him about 4 questions and he only answered one and its the most minimal answer. I may buy one but good customer service pre-purchase is a must for me because if there is any issues with the glass I want to know it will be handled properly. Especially if I'm going to drop $300-400.

Okay. This is where I must interject my two cents because of my experience with Oil Glass Contraptions.

One of the first pieces I ever had custom made was a Bees n Honey Recycler from OGC through a shop that was handling his custom orders at the time. There were issues with communication from the get and it stayed that way throughout the process. In the end, there were things that I was sure were made note of multiple times that were ignored. It was much smaller than I requested. I reauested a clear recycling chamber and it was completely opaque when finished. I wanted heavy drips and it wasn't as heavy as the pieces I had previously seen and included pictures of upon order. The Honeycomb shield hanging off the uptake arm has a ridiculously huge chunk of extremely sharp glass protruding from the backside. This was not what I was expecting and was pretty disappointed. I was given a discount and held onto it.

I did purchase another OGC piece from my local shop. It was a mini tube and it was under $100 so I just snagged it. It is a better made piece than the custom made Recycler.

Strange as my transaction went really smoothly...
What i have discovered with a lot of these artists is that if you try and constrain them too much the work is second rate...
However if you do what i did was and just give color options, nothing too fancy it works for the best.

There are some artists who will take the time and work with you to make what you actually desire, but they are few and far between...

It also appears as if a lot of the IG glass blowers are moving onto supplying stores so custom orders come a lagging second to the larger, easier orders that fill the bank balance...

It is very hit and miss these days!

I totally understand constraining them but all I asked was simple questions about his existing recyclers which he didn't answer. @deadshort780 that worries me. I don't think I will be ordering from him. Not a fan of the service. Thanks though! Waiting for the diffusion pump and pillar now :)

I have recently been dealing with @cramboro on IG. I am having a straight fab made with amber purple color accents. I believe I discovered him while lurking around @Deadshort480 page, admiring all his glass. Made me feel better about my GAS.

Well anyways @cramboro is incredibly easy to work with. He is very friendly with good communication skills. He responds to every question I ask and seems very interested in making me the pipe I want.

I have what many would consider a "weak account" on Instagram. Not a lot of pictures or proof that I can pay for the glass I inquire about. Lots of people don't take me seriously and kind of ignore me when I show interest in their work. The coolest people I have found so far is @cramboro and @reclaimstudios. And also @distilledglass because he made me a recycler when I had a brand new account with no pictures

That's what I was trying to get at! OGC seemed so far from interested in helping me. Suck because I was ready to order today. I will contact @cramboro today. What did he quote you on the egg?

@grdwaste my price came in at just under 300 but I also paid during the black Friday weekend. My order is a 9 inch tall straight fab with 8 holes. 4 levels of 2 holes. With built in drop down joint and amber purple accents

He has been in communication with me this entire time and never left me hanging or feeling uncomfortable. He will be starting it any day and said he would make sure to make it really nice for taking a long time. I'm very excited to see how it turns out and the extended wait gave me time to look at other cool glass and tag him saying like this or like that. Dude seems like a good listener

That's exactly what I'm looking for in a glassblower. I want them to be in good contact and be just as interested in the piece as I am. That is an AMAZING price and hopefully he'll throw me a good price as well. The built in drop down is a great addition. Are you contacting him through Instagram or by other means? I would want an extended wait to if it meant more TLC for the egg.
