Participation in the group. by
John Bassett
It's odd to call other posters bullies. We're just little words on a
pc screen, just emails. Only one glassworker I know has ever posted
to this group. I'm just another old turkey, doing glass by myself and
knowing only a few others who do it. Once in a great while I may have
an idea. Once in a...

What is this glass? by
Moonraker
I have a repair to do that has some glass that looks like a cross between
"seedy" and" "GNA". It has the bubbles like seedy, along with the lines
like GNA or FNA has. I haven't been able to find anything like it, and my
main local warehouse told me they thought it was a texture...

slumping casting question by
stephen cartwright
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...

Source for nice blown glass in Maryland? by
David Modine
I'm interested in several very colorful accent peices to set on some antique
marble topped furniture.
I found a store in Bethesda, MD called Fire & Ice that had some interesting
stuff, but I'd really like to find someone's studio or shop I could browse
around in.
Vases, bowls, lamps, globular stuff...

Imitation Came by
Harold E. Keeney \(Hal\)
Vicky Payne has been using a faux came on flat
glass panels. Has an adhesive backing that you
peel off and apply. Two questions:
1. Where can you get it?
2. Does it come in any other
finish other than brass?

Uranium glass by
Andy Dingley
I make furniture in wood and metal. Never worked glass before.
There's a technique I'm keen to try which involves insetting "jewels"
of glass into forged ironwork. You work the iron, hot-punch a hole
into it maybe 1/2" across then fill it with a rough piece of scrap
glass. Some work with an...

Ways to put a colored, rounded edge on glass? by
David Blood-Deschamps
Hi,
I'm working on flat stained glass ornaments that have exposed glass
edges. One way to finish these edges is to put on copper foil and
solder, but I'm looking for other ways to get a nice-looking finished
edge. Is there any kind of good, thick paint or enamel that will cover
the edge and dry to...

panel cleaning / white mold by

Greetings, All -
We're having a problem at the studio where I work, and it seems like the
sort of thing someone here may have encountered. Our copper foil projects
develop a white mold on the solder lines, sometimes very quickly (i.e., as
soon as 36 hours) after they are completed, despite...

glazing and soldering question by
M. Paradis
Hi all,
I am almost finished with a 16" x 72" panel - one piece, and I was wondering
if I can solder and glaze one side, and then turn it over and solder and
glaze the other side.
Would that cause me some difficulties in the process?
I know I need to reinforce this panel with rebar. Are two 16"...
