fewwdragon Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Well I had an idea. If any one is interested I work as a sandblaster, I could etch designs into hookah bases (glass preferred but I could probably do acrylic too). This would add a personal touch to everyones hookahs. Any one interested or is it just a bad idea? Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.cOLt.45. Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Wow I would love this..how much would it cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fewwdragon Posted January 24, 2007 Author Share Posted January 24, 2007 Depends on the design and the size I would think. But I want to say something like s/h +20 ? but i haven't gave it alot of thought yet and kinda wondered what people would think would be fair?

.cOLt.45. Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 well when i get to houston i could probably get it.. but yeah if it's a reasonable price i would definately get it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I wouldnt mind be the first to try it!20 sounds fine.. I do live in CA though!I would like it to be on an acrylic though....Eh? eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angemonkwj Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 i would think pricing would be determined by the size of the piece u want on the glass plus your labor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.cOLt.45. Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Yeah I mean you could do other glass wares to..like I got a gladd that I think would look so cool if something was etched into it... I would definately pay for something personal on my hookah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SafeSearch Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 wow thats nice. what other kinds of designs can you do? i would definately pay for this service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fewwdragon Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 (edited) Only design I have done but any thing 2-d i would think. I am also curious as to what people are willing to pay (don't forget s/h). If any one is willing for me to do their bases I will replace them if they get damaged plus refund shipping and stuff (up to say $60 I don't know bout that number either). Its really to give everyone a little unique ness so i don't i want to make things work. Edited January 25, 2007 by fewwdragon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafeSearch Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 So like... you could do a gas mask design if i supplied a 2-d photo? (oh, and no I'm not suggesting a gas mask because of you know what, I always thought they were the shit)or like... pretty much nething awesome?

fewwdragon Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 EMIR hahahahah bow to me....back to the topic. I can try no promises though. With the mask i can't do shading or coloring. So I would have to like out line everthing but I am pretty sure i could make it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil_Spork Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 guys for stuff like that its a 2-tone thing. its either etched or not, theres no in between. so a design would have to look good in solid black, cuz thats basically what it will look like when its etched.
