Hi, in our homegrown glory furnace or melting hole we want to try a different melting pot. The first one is still functioning, but actually is a mass of sherds kept together by molten glass, and we are looking for the next experiment. Still, we have had one month and a half of blowing two...

I'm looking for a place to buy some clear glass coffee mugs to do some etching on. Anyone have any suggestions on what sites I can find these? I did a google search but everything that comes up is that promotional stuff. Thanks Greg

How does one securely attach glass to a wall for display? I am making fused glass pieces that I would like to hang on a wall like a painting, except there is no frame. Some pieces are small (10x8) and some are larger (36 x 18, 20x20 for example). Most are flat, but I would also like to be able...

Does anyone have a wholesale source for small glass boxes? Thanks.

Am planning a 20" dia. medallion using all lead came. Have entered into a discussion with other local glass artists about the outside perimeter. Which metal should be used - zinc or lead? Right now the informal survey is 50 - 50. Any thoughts about long term results? Hal --

One of the glass vendors must be infected with the latest virus/trojan. I'm getting loads of emails into one of my business email accounts that only gets used for corresponding with vendors. Be careful of any emails that have an attachment(s) that are ~31KB in size.

I have seen and understood what Uranium glass is, but never heard of Vaseline glass. Have visited the Fenton factory - just didn't see, hear, read or understand anything about Vaseline glass. Can someone enlighten me? -- Hal Keeney (dba) Eugene's Studio Stained Glass Artistry

I'm building kitchen cabinets and I am putting in 6 stained glass doors. The rest of the doors I am using European style self closing hinges, but after using them, I'm afraid they close too quickly and could break glass doors. Anyone have any recommendations? I've looked for slow self closing...

Finnish designer 'Chanterelle' glass vase by Tapio Wirkkala for Karhula Iittala. With a nod to art nouveau, Wirkkala’s design of the Chanterelles range was based on the simple, naturally occurring shapes of local fungi. Dimensions: 9cm tall by 8cm wide. Etching on base reads - TAPIO WIRKKALA - ...

And now for something completely different: I dismantled a washing machine last week with the vague idea of making a polishing disk from it. Has anybody done this before, and are there any caveats? The general idea is to throw away the inner and outer drum, but keep the assemblage on which the...

Hi all! I had an unfortunate incident this morning: the shower glass spontaneously shattered (exploded would be a better description) into thousands of small pieces this morning. From what I read, I think this was tempered glass. Anyway, to avoid future incident, I think that it would be best to...

If I am very lucky, then I have caught all the problems and Waymark will not undo them tomorrow. Had to get all file names lower case, some of which were upper and then catch all links and image references and make them match. Let me know if you find a missing image or bad internal like. Thank...

How does one stick a picture to glass in such a way that it is preserved, able to withstand hot plates on the glass, and looks neat, professional finish - just like the glass table mats one can buy in kitchen shops? What type of glass do I need. What adhesive should be used and what is the method...

I was wondering if this was possible . I have a 9 3/8" bullseye ball slumping mold . What I would like to do is to fill the mold up with clear scrap glass and then fire it to cast the glass into the shape of the mold . I figure a fire at 1465 for 30 minutes would do the trick . Then fuse a circle...
