I am having difficulty cutting narrow and long strips of glass. The strips need to be about 1/4 inch wide -- length isn't too critical, but I'd like to get it about a foot or so. I'm working on the Odessy variant of Tiffany's Lotus Lamp and there are more narrow pieces of glass involved than I...

Hi all, I have been making fused glass jewellery for the past 6 months and have been hiring out a kiln and am now very keen to buy my own. I want a kiln to experiment with fused glass jewellery and slightly larger pieces in tile or slumping form. I am also going to take a few introductory classes...

I would like to buy my wife (a stained glass worker) a strip/circle cutter as a gift. I know that both Inland and Glastar (and other companies) sell one, and I don't know enough to choose between them. I would appreciate any recommendations, comments, advice, discussion of pros and cons, etc.,...

I am making ornaments that have small glass pieces with exposed edges. I am going to use a quickfire kiln to fire-polish the edges. I am interested in also creating interesting surface effects on the face of the pieces, perhaps things that would bond/melt in the kiln. Any ideas? Glass bits? Metal...

I have decided on a Jen Ken Kiln but can't decide which controller. Orton auto fire or Bartlet 3 key which is a better controller or what is more user friendly? Any advice appreciated.

My wife works in stained glass, using the copper foil technique. She has been asked to make a large rectangular piece to cover a window, and is not sure it is feasible with that technique (can it be made rigid enough?). The project is not to make the window itself, but to make a rectangular...

My brother struggled with addiction, of that there is no secret. Even the most noble and intelligent amoung us has succumbed to the sweet siren song of drugs. For Samuel Taylor Coleridge, it was opium. For Rush Limbaugh, it was OxyContin. And for Al, toward the end of his days, it was sauerkraut...

Hi folks, I'm just getting started with fusing and was able to get a bunch of equipment and supplies from someone going out of business dirt cheap. They threw in about 400 lbs. of aluminum powder. Since my only previous experience with the stuff has been using it to start damp campfires, I'm a...
