New Standard Prep Rules
We are asking all artists to come prepared to our live glassblowing events. This means that your torch and accessories (mini torches, bunsen burners, and etc.) should be connected and y-ed down to a single gas and single oxygen B-Grade hose with a male quick connect on the end. Artists without the proper equipment will be asked to borrow from a fellow competitor, “rent” CHAMPS Glass Games equipment or acquire their own fittings from local sources.
Standard Prep Rules
Just make sure it is not a finished section, piece, or part and can be verified by the Judges and or Glass Games Crew as a not fully shaped or finished.
TUBING
Artists may use: Vacstacks, blow-ins (stuff n puffs), space tech, frit fades, chip stacks, bubble traps, dichro and etc. All sections must NOT be finished parts or pieces. Sections may be any diameter and length; they may also be on handles. NO PRE-SHAPED SECTIONS.
ROD
All rod must NOT be shaped and or manipulated prior to the competition. Twisty Cane is allowed and not considered a manipulation. Again, no finished pieces and or sections.
MISCELLANEOUS
- Millies, whether sliced or in rod form are allowed as long as they recognize our copyrighted and trademarked images addendum.
- Opals, encased or raw are allowed. Encased opals must be individual opals regardless of shape or size.
- No faceted sections
- No marbles
IMPORTANT: Due to the high volume of complaints received, CHAMPS Glass Games will no longer accept entries infringing upon existing Trademarks and/or Copyrights. Anything with a Trademarked or Copyrighted image will be removed from the table and be disqualified from the games. We apologize for any inconvenience.
