I believe the lampworked beads are not enjoying the same popularity as it did before and has become more and more difficult to make a decent living doing it. I am not to say one can't but it will require a lot of practice before one is competent enough to be competitive.
As for start up costs, to do it correctly with proper ventilation system, torch, oxygen, gas, kiln, tools, glass, etc. etc. etc., this is not an inexpensive endeavor. We are looking at about US$2,000 minimum.
