As far as the "bongs for yuppies" thing, you don't think your copper gets turned into cappuccino machines, antiqued mustache comb holders, and steampunk monocles for hipsters and yuppies? At least this is going straight to an artist who is going to create something unique with it. And if you think glassblowing is a yuppie thing, try it out. I work with 5000 degree torches all day, come home dirty with graphite, sweat, cuts, burns, and at the end of that, the piece I'm working on all day might just blow up into pieces just because it feels like it.
