Bathroom window tinting? by Bart V
I've been asked a couple of times what I could do to have windows (like bathroom, sliding patio doors) provide better privacy. Removing them for sandblasting or etching is not an option (not set up for that). Unless etching can be done while the glass is vertical (mounted in the door)? I got to...

Where can I find glass cylinder hurricane candle shades? by Ken Whitaker
I have a 9 x 4 pillar candle that is to be burned at an outdoor wedding. I need a glass sleeve, 14 or 15 inches tall, to shield the flame from the wind. It would be best if it was open at the bottom, but a vase-style would be OK, too. I found one that is shaped like an hour glass, with an...

chipping while grinding by Masqqqqqqq
I have an Inland twin spin disk grinder. When I grind the edges of the glass, it leaves the glass with small chips along the edges. How can I prevent the chipping and get a perfect edge?

Painting a flag on glass by Barb and James Maxwell
I need to get a small Canadian flag, about 1x1.5 inches, into a project but if I do each of the red bands and the white band, with a maple leaf, it will make far too many seams. I've been looking around for some red and white glass where if cut at the right spot could fake a flag, but without...

Advice please: melt-in surface treatments? by David Blood-Deschamps
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...

How do you etch glass? by nospam
I want to do some simple flower etching in glass for ornamental garden accessories. Is it a paste or a liquid and how long and hard is the process? Is there a way to frost over the etched area?

Skull crucibles. by Mike Firth
Now if you put the RF stuff inside a metal box and close the door before you turn it on, there's no problem at all. You do this every time you warm up your coffee in the microwave oven. It's perfectly safe. So what's your problem? The problem is that the amount of power in a...
