Nice I was there as well, they didn't have Migrant's stuff on display though... I was there at the opening though. Did you get a peak inside the case with all of the glass, right next to where the jewelry is kept? There was Hops Salt Slinger and quite a few other Philly artists' work. After midterms, this time of year? You just gave away that your stillllllll, in high school...

Nah dawg this time of year is finals. Its finals week. Midterms was a month and a half ago, not something to be argued about though. This is your thread so whatever. I still think he's in high school though. Doesn't really matter to me how old he is though I was blazing and collecting glass when I was in high school. At least he's learning well.

If you guys take a look at their In Action videos their fixed stem circ acs were stacking bubbles like its their job. A lot better than a toro circ and maybe even up there with Vertigos circs as well.

I've been to there site and it looks like they have some decent tube's. I believe the guy is a former Illadelph blower, but I'm not sure if that's true.

does anyone know where I can find a Name Brand tube and how much they would run? I really like the fixed stem its super sick and the logo is just plain awesome. Please help me out FMB I really want to pick up one of these tubes before they blow and become too pricey I think ThatFuckinKid said they were like 275 which seems like a steal.

I talked to this guy today and he has blown with Illadelph. I dont think he worked for them he has just blown with them. He has also blown with JP from Toro.

Thank you very much Dank. I will say the bubbling on those circ's was nuts. Cool combo blowing with Illadelph/JP, he obviously knows his shit. And any word on the price/availability of these?

thats still not bad at all, i really think these guys could take off, id like to see the glass in person, does it hold up against the pictures and vids? if so 350 seems like a good price to get a nice tube like those.
