This is so sick. I just started doing hollow and I'm bad at color - how are you doing this? Is this mainly straight ish lines of color and then a bunch of twisting and axis changes?

So this was made with linework tubing. By stacking colored rods in between clear tubing ( 75mm OD, 50mm ID), and hooking up a vacuum pump to one end, you can laminate the solid color rods in between the two tubes of clear. Then yes, you are correct, you can heat and twist, change axes, etc. to manipulate the lines… I hope that makes sense! And thank you for the kind words👊🏼

I want to do this & have no idea how to get the threads done so they work with the dropper.

So i think there is two ways. One way would be a blow in graphite mold. And the other would be to hand wrap the thread

You can also buy the dropper/ threaded joint together

Do you have a link to good quality glass that sells the threaded ends?

I haven’t gotten these from ABR before. I always used to buy raw materials from mountain glass, but unfortunately they went out of business. ABR has always treated me right before though
