I disagree. I'd love to see your pictures. Why not post a thread with "adults only/NSFW" in the title if you're concerned? Or post them in the bedroom forum ("adult playground") I'm sure either option would address the concerns of the oh-so-sensitive board members, and then the rest of us don't miss out on seeing your cool stuff!

If you're still uncomfortable, please PM me the images

Damn....12"x2" worth of glass - basically a maria and a rounded end.
What's that...maybe 40 minutes of work with a decent torch.
And they're asking $699 for it? My friends, I am in the WRONG end
of this glass industry (literally, the WRONG END).
I could make that in 15 minutes tops, jeez the heck with marbles. I might even get invites to watch it in use (for research purposes of course)

Maybe once you've used one it becomes a matter of not being able to wait for the kiln to cool off?

Depends on the craft show, I think. I was just talking to some friends about another glassworker who sells at the womens' roller derby events -- I'm guessing that might work there.

being a man, i have sold a few of them... it is interesting, to say the least... going to be selling to a shop here soon, when i get off my butt and call the store back.. i find, that when i sell them to an individual, i tend to hear quiet a bit about personal practices than i need to know..

i found the best way to sell, in by word of mouth, and at friends parties


after you bring them out, and everyone gets over the giggles and the shock of whats on display, its just like selling any other product... in most cases, they sell themselves..

I know! I couldn't help it with your comment though!

I can only imagine how much heat would radiate off the glass!!

I've only done custom orders as well but a local head shop wants to add a case of toys so I am looking into that.

I've seen a few a Etsy shops that carry these though.

I thought about selling them on Etsy, but considering I haven't gotten around to posting any marbles or pendants or anything on Etsy for a long while, it will probably be a while until I get around to getting any toys posted...
