and something else now.....( 'splain to me about 'band saws')
wrote in message ups.com... i asked for photos...not words...Moonraker sent me a recent piece he restored.. yes, it's gorgeous...but it's NOT Tiffany... Just to clarify....I never said it WAS Tiffany, nor did I intend to imply that it was. And as a further clarification, the lead in that panel was 5/32", not 1/8", making the tolerances even smaller. |

Try reading what i wrote with a different (less antagonistic) tone to
your voice.. YOU never SAID it was Tiffany...i said 'it's not Tiffany'... No one said it was Tiffany...the context is 'i like the look of Tiffany...but as gorgeous as this piece is...it's NOT Tiffany'... why is everyone so contentious? why are you all waiting to counter-attack all the time? what's with this retaliation post after post? it's like trying to talk to a bunch of third graders during recess!! sheesh!!! again. a.

Ummmm? I just didn't want any misunderstandings. I knew it wasn't LCT, you knew it wasn't LCT, but some of the less attentive folks might have gotten the wrong impression. Somebody please pass Arlene the bowl of Prozac. |

Not as often as churches do, they all use plexi or glass around here to protect and they still need restoring every once in a while. It's been 30 plus years and i have yet to need to restore any of my work. I actually have one large, heavy sucker that i did in '74, it has been more places than most people, has a couple cracked pieces, but no bowing, no fatigue. I say we should all agree to disagree as we'll never give up our own opinion over lead vs. foil. (or top vs bottom posting ;) m Isn't restoring your work after 30 or so years a good thing? Bad thing? -- Jack http://www.glasterpiece.com |

I say we should all agree to disagree as we'll never give up our own opinion over lead vs. foil. (or top vs bottom posting ;) m Ya know? I think foil has it's place. Making silly little sailboats, for example. Seriously...I have foil panels I made 20+ years ago that are just fine. I just would never expose a foiled panel to the elements. There's a guy nearby that makes 4'x4' and larger bath windows with foil. I think he's crazy, but people keep buying them. He installs them without any other glazing......!!!! I'm not "anti-foil", per se. I just prefer to work with lead. Foiling aggravates me because I can't make the lines "perfect", as smooth and straight and even as I can the lead lines. A lot of what I do has bevels in it, and I just don't believe that 1.5mil copper is strong enough to handle the extra weight of the bevels. And I bottom posted this one just to show you I know how!!! ;) PS...I just started back through re-reading all those magazines you sent me. Thanks again. Any stray thong pics between the pages? -- Jack http://www.glasterpiece.com |

Are you calling .031" a tad? Sorry. Thirty years as a machinist screwed up my idea of "tad". Doesn't help in my glasswork. Oh wait, I'm not sorry. That's 25% bigger. -- Jack http://www.glasterpiece.com |
