I picked this up at an auction recently, and it looks a lot like a blow pipe for blowing glass, but I`m not sure, I`m far from being an expert on these things. It is 4 feet long, the tube is rolled steel tubing, the mouthpiece end is brass, and the glass end has a brass hook thingy in it with 2 air passages coming out of it. I would think that glass would melt the copper, and why have the hook on it? Can anybody shed some light on what this is? I couldn`t pass this thing up, I love a good challenge!
