Tim is very well known and respected by pipemakers community. And personally knows the best of the best of them. If he wanted to make a bong - he would. That is not his way or field of interest.

I'm not familiar with glass blowing, but as a fellow craftsman (violins), I can tell when somebody is making things look deceptively easy. a regular pwrson watching this has no idea how many potential mistakes he's not making in this process.

THANK YOU for bringing attention to the small world of scientific glassblowing! Tim Drier is an absolute legend and a great teacher. He explains his technique and defines terms so well. When I try to explain the trade I feel like I'm just speaking in complete jargon. I would love to pick his brain someday!
