i am a glass artist from tennessee, im looking to get into kegging my beer. im looking for any...kegs, taps, quick connects, co2 bottles, lines,i mean any equiptment for trade for hand made glass art. i typically make sculpture but i think that alot of you guys/and girls would be interested in a custom mug/glass. i can make anything out of glass, just shoot me an email and i can show you pictures or give me an idea of what you would want me to make..flowers, paperwieghts, mugs, custum glass taps for your tower, anything, i can frost and etch anything you want into the mug or tap too!!! i also make red strip bottles into glasses that wil shure to be the envy of all your friends!!!

edit..thanks john:
so far i am trading for kegs, and co2, i need regs and lines, towers, or faucets, and hardware.
for trade i have tap handles, tasting glasses (4oz), and anything you can dream up out of glass
 
sure does, what are you looking for, im trying at amass as much equipment as i can....i have alot of glass, more than anyman should have...
 
Maybe a little bit of a stretch, but is there anyway to get you to make say a glass tap handle, I'd love to see what design you'd come up with and would be more than willing to reimburse you for it, either send some keging equip or pay you.
 
I gotta say blown glass taphandles would be pretty cool. Don't think i'd even need the wife's permission to splurge on that one!
 
ill make some handles today and take some pictures of them, i also wood turn so i can make custom wood handles too, ill take cash but i would rather trade for somehting that you dont need anymore, like corneys and taps and lines, just enough to get me started on kegging, ill make some glasses today too

im glad to hear people want taps, thats what i wanted to make in the first place...order in coming right up!!!:mug:
 
i just made 6 hops and 3 other tap handles and a large imperial pint glass, ill take pictures tommorrow when they get out of the kiln, then im going to wood turn a base for them, they looked pretty sweet, im keeping one for myself!!!
 
Excited is an understatement, just let me know what you're looking for as far a equip, I'll pick it up at my homebrew store and ship it out in exchange.

I got some cornies that I would be willing to trade. I am interested in one of the tap handles. Can't wait for pics.
 
Andynaj, I don't think you need to trade your wares for kegging equipment. Sell your tap handles and pub glasses at a resonable price and pick up your kegging equipment locally. Save on shipping. BTW, if you didn't know there is a homebrew shop in Nashville you could get all of this.

Also, I want a hop handle.
 
i know i could sell em, which im happy too, and do all the time, but i also like trading because i like the bartering system, i think its nice to feel that both parties get a deal on a product, when i finish them, ill post pictures and well see
cheers
tilldeath..i dont want you to go out of your way and pic it up, and then waste shipping, ill sell you one and go to the store, dont worry about it...i like the store!!!

where's smithville? I'm in abingdon, va and have tons of cornies and connectors and other misc draft stuff. If you're close I'm interested in tap handles and tasting (4 ozish) glassware.

shoot me a pm
 
ahhhh........ i thought you meant a different type of hand blown glass......

THAT kind is nice too.. the patterns that people make is mind boggling. especially when the colors change.

Not trying to highjack the thread (and for the record, I don't use these products) but there looks to be a pretty interesting documentary about these types of glass objects...

here are the cones i made yesterday, i made 6 but these 4 made it, they range from about 3-5 inches, i am going to put them on a wood base, with a threaded insert in it....
any sugestions on what width to make the bottom of the base, i was thinking it would be a tapered base getting smaller as it connects to the tap....

andynaj, those are amazing! I wish I had something to barter with, I'd totally grab that one on the far right...

And dunnright, nice video. Reno is turning into a teeny-tiny San Francisco and there are some head shops (Fat Glass, Art Dogs) that blow stuff that sick. It's really amazing and impressive to see in person.
