The Power of Being Established by Glassman
I'm finding that the last couple of years my job volume has gone way down, but the job size has gone way up. Everytime I think I'm going to slit my wrists, a huge job falls in my lap. It's the in between time that's baffling. I just don't see the small repairs and commissions as much anymore. ...

Changing Kitchen Cabinet Glass by Sheellah
The problem with trying to do this, is that the glass is inserted into a channel before the door is assembled, and then it's probably glued. It's a shaker door style. They also have one where the glass in inside a mitered frame. The doors are from IKEA, and they are that awful screened glass with...

Stained Glass for Outdoor Lantern by Mike Firth
If you will contact any good paint store or department, they should be able to show you paint removers that have virtually no effect on metal or glass. They will have to look at the paint to see if it is latex or enamel. The most that might happen is that after the paint is off, the "patina"...

cutting surface by Terra
I'm looking at a table made of a sheet of plywood for cutting on, 1" thick and very hard, but I've been offered a formica bar countertop. It's hard and smooth, plus even the smallest flakes and shards will come off cleanly. What are you guys using? ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com **
