Source of small glass furnace in UK? by
Mike Firth
Well, I tried to reply off line, but IE makes it so difficult to get rid
of your NO SPAM, I gave up.
You will have difficulty finding a way to work that small a quantity,

Why this NG has sucked so bad.... by
Jman
Yep,
I said it.... As a matter of fact, it had to be said. Most of the
people on this newgroup seem not willing to participate because of a
handful of people's (I'm not excluding myself here either folks...)
willingness to be as pompous and self rightous as possible. The
traffic that this NG...

books by
Annie
I am looking for some books by Debra & Steven Toi. They were published a
few years ago. They are for stained-glass sculptural art and came with
molds.
I have just recently been made aware of them, and would love to get a
hold of them to work with my mini-kiln.
Any help would be appreciated.
Annie

First design using Glass Eye by
Michael[_2_]
Hi everybody!
Would appreciate your comments on this design, pro and con. I know I
probably need to break the border up into smaller pieces. Other than
that, what do you think? It is targeted for a transom-like window
measuring around 20" x 44". If the link wraps, you might have to
paste the...

Foulmouthed Craftweb rant by

There is another message board, Craftweb, where I had a recent dispute

didn't allow me to respond. If anyone has been in that position, you

There are lots of books on how to use a wood lathe or a metal working

A polishing disk from a washing machine by

And now for something completely different: I dismantled a washing

What to do with a glass head by
C Ryman
I have a hollow glass head from Pier 1. I was originally going to mosaic it
and turn it into a table lamp. But I have been thinking (belatedly) that

holes in the top of the head but that is where the glass is thickest...
