How do you build a 22-inch glass Lamborghini from scratch? I drove out to California and sat down with Hoobs at his studio and talked through the full story. How Molten Art Classic started as Ziggy's five-year anniversary party and evolved over a decade into one of the biggest collaborative glass projects in the scene, how he invented a custom rolling kiln by grinding out the base and building a track so the floor slides out, the 49-pound space station that filled the entire kiln, every car he's built from the Lamborghini to the 65 Impala to the Ghostbusters collab, his breakdown of the artists who defined the pipe scene across two decades, the plan to tour all eight Molten Art pieces through museums as one exhibit, his experience filming the Hulu series "420 on 420" with Jimmy Kimmel's production crew, dichro coating techniques, AR glasses and exoskeletons as the future of the craft, law of attraction philosophy, and real advice for young glass blowers trying to find their voice. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:00 — Cold open & intro 00:01:05 — The final Molten Art Classic & its origin as Ziggy's anniversary party 00:05:57 — Inventing the custom rolling kiln 00:09:36 — The space station piece: ~49 lbs, filled the entire kiln 00:17:07 — Building the glass Lamborghini: 6-7 weeks solo, frame-first method 00:25:03 — Cars at scale: Lamborghini, 65 Impala, 59 Impala, 57 Bel Air, Ghostbusters collab 00:29:55 — Bringing glass into new cultures: sneakers, cars, crossover audiences 00:33:05 — History of the scene: 2000–2010 era (Depee, Banjo, Marcel, Clinton) 00:34:27 — The 2010–2020 game changers: Elbow, Coyle, Joe Peters 00:39:39 — The next evolution: team projects & museum-scale ambitions 00:46:29 — The touring exhibit plan: 8 pieces, never all displayed at once 00:54:21 — Molten Art Classic documentary short film 01:03:45 — Laguna Canyon art shows & sea life sculptures 01:05:40 — Dichro coating process: what actually works and what doesn't 01:08:27 — The future of glass: market evolution & the golden bull run 01:12:02 — Advice to young glass blowers: find your voice, don't chase hype 01:18:55 — Law of attraction & creative philosophy 01:21:43 — The Hulu show "420 on 420" 01:27:39 — AR glasses, exoskeletons & the technology future 01:38:13 — UFO disclosure, pyramids & wild theories 01:52:19 — Building the scene: public events, new ventures & staying optimistic 01:58:17 — Closing thoughts & outro 🔗 CONNECT WITH HOOBS GLASS: 🌐 Website: https://www.hoobsglass.net/ 📸Instagram: @hoobsglass 🔗 CONNECT WITH THE ROBERTSON STASH: Instagram: @Robertson.stash Host: Matt Robertson - @robertson.glass SPONSORS: 🌿 WNC CBD - https://wnc-cbd.com (Code: STASH25 for 25% off) 🍄 Full Canopy Genetics - https://fullcanopygenetics.com (Grow your own Mushrooms 💨 Puffco - https://www.puffco.com (Premium dab rigs) 💬 ENJOYED THIS EPISODE? 👍 LIKE this video 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for weekly episodes 💬 COMMENT your biggest takeaway 📤 SHARE with someone who needs to hear this Your support helps us bring more incredible guests and stories to The Robertson Stash! #robertsonstash #glassart #california
