Papers and vaporizers all have their place, and acrylic bongs might glow under black light, but something about the beauty and functionality of glass pipes enhances the smoking experience in an unmatched way.<br /><br />Every good toker has his favorite piece. Whether it’s a little spoon confiscated by your high school principal or your first big bong that stood guard in the corner of your dorm room. We’ve all got a special place in his heart for a special piece.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LmfVy0zANMk/SFV0EOig-EI/AAAAAAAAAAU/cvq-rplpE5M/s1600-h/image2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 259px; height: 193px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_LmfVy0zANMk/SFV0EOig-EI/AAAAAAAAAAU/cvq-rplpE5M/s320/image2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212199759722379330" border="0" /></a>And we glass lovers have been lucky over the last 20 years, as the artistry of flame-worked glass pipes has exploded. Glass working geniuses like Jason Lee, Marcel Braun, and Mike Fro have stood on the shoulders of pioneers like Bob Snodgrass, and have taken the art to a whole new level. Thanks to them, we all win.<br /><br />We were intrigued by this art and the culture around it, and were inspired to take two months to travel around, meeting up with these people, documenting how they make the pieces they make, to bring it to you, the glass pipe enthusiast.<br /><br />The resulting DVD is 70 minutes long, and chock full of fun, covering the nuts and bolts of glass pipe blowing, the people who do it, the industry that has grown up around it, and more. We hope you like it.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8588480435138994053-3403960342049428809?l=operationpipeworks.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Operation Pipeworkshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13462631245134157402noreply@blogger.com3
