Hi Everyone, I have a question about getting some glass shapes made. They are symmetrical about one vertical axis, and hollow. Imagine them shaped like bells and you won't be too far off.

Im asking this question because in another NG someone has said you should not use glass balls in a ball mill (Pyrotechnic manufacture ball mill) because the glass could spark and ingnite the pyrotechnic mixture being milled. I have never heard of soda lime or boro sparking before. It...

I am trying to find (or create) a 48 high x 24 wide panel of "frosted" glass for a door. Since it is in a door, tempered glass or other shatter resistant glass should be used.

We have seen a web page with information about how to build a stained glass storage cabinet by adding metal strapping as dividers, but (of course) are unable to find the page again. The general idea is simple enough that we can probably figure out how to do it. But the article had some tips...

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...
