Michael[_2_]
I was doing a rose window over the weekend and I got in a wrestling
match with some Spectrum red ruby waterglass and it just about whupped

Bevel cluster question by
Gail Sperling
I just received a bevel cluster I ordered. Unforunately the pieces don't
fit together very well where they fit into the end of a "V". There is a
large gap. Would you work with this gap or grind the pieces to fit better?
Thanks,
Gail

Puffy
I had a littl freeware program once for pricing stain glass projects but I
can't seem to find it anywhere on the internet. Does anyone know where I can
find it? It priced on number of pieces, difficulty and overall size.
