My heart is sad, for those that care by
Javahut[_4_]
I found out today just how brief life is, and how odd it can be.
Many people here have followed the trials and tribulations of Michael
Robison.
For those that don't read here often, Michael came in the group not all that
long ago with a new energy and excitement for a craft he did 20 years...

Can Anyone Identify the maker of this Glass Globe? by
saxaplexpublshing
I am selling an art deco lamp on ebay and would love to get some
information. The globe appears to be older than the lamp, though I'm
not sure. There are elements of iridescence, millefiori, and
"veining" on the exterior of the globe. It is very well crafted and
executed, but has no signature or...

Can you identify this? by
[email protected]
Hello everyone,
While cleaning up the house, we found an old box with something that I
cannot identify. It looks like some sort of printing technique on
glass, maybe etched glass? I don't know, so I thought I'd ask who
could know. Pictures he...

I finally made a better site. www.basglas.com I knew I had to do
this

talked to one site designer, who was very helpful. But I decided I
wanted an inexpensive site I could maintain myself. I went online

Kokomo suffixes by
Michael[_2_]
I'll be passing through Kokomo the end of this month, and I'm going to
slide in and buy some glass. On my first visit to Kokomo a couple
months back I didn't really know what kind of glass I wanted to buy,
and I didn't want to buy glass on impulse without some forethought.
Through the glass I've...

Tabletop finish by
Michael[_2_]
I've built several benches to do stained glass on. They aren't
anything fancy, just built out of 2x4s and plywood. The work surfaces
are 3/4" finish plywood. Before they get soaked in flux, sweat, and
beer, is there a good finish to use for wood surfaces used for stained
glass work? I'm sorta...

Tapping by
Michael[_2_]
Back when glass was new I did a few stained glass windows. I used one
of those generic green glass cutters with the ball on the end to tap
the glass from behind and deepen the crack and break the glass. I
remember doing that religiously. Now many moons later when I take up
the craft again, I...

Nasty gossip by
Michael[_2_]
No, nothing about the pet whipping boy. I was reading a review of one
of Alastair Duncan's book and one of the reviews wasn't a review at
all, but a comment that Duncan caught some heat by selling a stolen
Tiffany window. I was skeptical. Does anybody know the story?

Foiled again by
Michael[_2_]
I've bought foil from two stained glass shops and one online store.
They always come in a little plastic bag but with no manufacturer's
name. One roll that I got seemed to have a lot of extra slices
hanging off the foil, little edges that didn't get trimmed well when
it was cut. That foil didn't...

Tiffany at the Metropolitan by

I've been interested in Tiffany lamps so I've been checking out a few
books on his work. I notice one about a Tiffany exhibit at the
Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Is that exhibit permanent or
has it moved on to somewhere else? If permanent, has anyone seen it?
If yes, is it cool? I've...
