Hello Nexus,
First, I would like to say I am grateful for this positive community that you have created. A little about me... I am a glass artist. I make functional glass art everyday. I have donated pieces to fund the glass pipe movement. I smoke a lot of flowers. I also love mushrooms. I have been doing personal research on drugs for over 10 years. Psychedelic drugs interest me the most. I do not consume to get intoxicated, but for my own spiritual and psychological reasons. I feel that all of us as intelligent beings deserve to do so. I love staying creative and exploring.

Hello SpaceCadet88,

Welcome to the Nexus. Thanks for writing and posting an Introduction Essay. Sounds like you may have a lot in common with many of the folks here. .

I'd love to see some pics/examples of your work if you would be comfortable sharing . .

Have you tried DMT yet? If so oral or smoked and how did it go? Had a chance to extract your own entheogens yet? Do you grow your own medicine.

I'd encourage you to read all that introductory material (links) you received and to take some time to take a good look around here - the subforums, etc. Lots of neat projects going on at the Nexus. There's areas for just about any/all interests.

Again, welcome to the Nexus.

I have yet to try DMT. SWIM is very interested in extracting their own and smoking it though. I have never grown my own meds, but have helped out with a few peoples medicinal farms in the past. I may post some pictures of my glass art in the future as I become more comfortable. I will be sure to read up on the links and search and participate in what I find interesting and think I may be able to help with.

Welcome to the nexus, SpaceCadet88.

Thank you for your intro; I liked it. I too am interested in seeing some of that glass art when you feel comfortable.

If you are interested in Cannabis, check out this thread. Again, welcome to the nexus.

Thanks Cosmic!

I surrender...(puts up white flag)
Here is small sample of the functional glass art that I speak of:

Beautiful stuff you have there, very nice work

I use the style pipe featured in picture 1 very often.

It has to be a satisfying feeling to use that artwork after you have made it

Thank you. I feel it is more satisfying when others want to own/use my artwork.

Sweet pieces mate

When I saw my first documentary about these I wanted to start doing it myself, but at least at that time a few years ago, I could find nobody in my country that had the proper kiln to be able to work with this kind of glass.

Especially those with the gold molecules on the inside wall, freaking works of art

Your blog link is not working.

A great glass documentary to watch is Degenerate Art.

I bet you watched Operation Pipeworks since you say it was years ago.

Yup - shrooms rock! I recommend investigating Psilohuasca - even using a small dose 50mg to 100mg harmaloids with about half the usual amount of shrooms.

Never heard of it. Will have to research some more about it. I'll keep it in mind the next time I eat some and spread the word to friends who might be interested.

psylocybe semilanceta is the ones we have growing on the golfcourses here in N....y
They are very Nice to,like Your glass pipes. Are they good for smoking spice?

I imagine that they are good for smoking just about anything.
I use them for cannabis and hash.

Good News:

I have arrangements in place and will have some acrb in the near future. Lots of wonderful seeds to be planted too. Plan on doing Cybs tek with the acrb. Will be growing mimosa and lots of cati, and other goodies too.

Cybs hybrid (salt) A/B tek worked good for me with ACRB. Did it with 50g to try it out and i got ca 2% yeild from it... I re-x most of it and had about +/- 1g white fluffy x-tals.
Its gone now...smoked with good friens and family and they all loved it.
Going to to it again soon with 250g powder,cant wait.

Nice to know! Thanks for sharing your experience.

Hehe - thanks for the pic of your work. Wow, that's a lotta pipes,
