Thank you friends

Hello,

Would you know where to find catalogs and technical info on Ferro's products like Sunshine, Versicolor, etc.?

Thank you,

"Use diamond tip glass cutter not the carbide wheel glass cutter." "Our fabrication warehouse uses it everyday. cutting 4 mm to 12 mm float glass and 4 mm mirrors." "example, cutting 4 mm mirrors into 1" strips is easy. no need to tap. kerosene really helps a lot. If yo...

It's our local Pilkington float glass manufacturer called VASA, their float glass is all over the world because they export a lot. Since they work under Pilkington specifications I believe their glass follows international quality standards. Once, I had a curious episode with a sheet of such float g...

My two cents, I always cut with kerosene, not only painting the score path but slightly dipping the cutter in the fluid. This allows to prevent the tungsten-carbide wheel to carry glass slivers and enables a well lubircated axe. In fact, the small axe is under a heavy charge when scoring and a bad l...

Hello, With these lines I want to warn you about some registration companies behavior. They use to SPAM over the web offering transferring, registering or renewing domain names at $14.95.- But they have unreachable addresses, so you will not be able to make your rights worth. They shall not reply yo...

Whatever software is fine with me. However, I voted for the old board because I have felt more comfortable it that environment. I have been able to compare the old WGBB and the Craftweb (similar software than this new) simultaneously. Since there is not problem with them, I would prefer the straight...

I have just received an e-mail from Cumbow Studios announcing a reprint for the book "Painting and Firing Stained Glass". It´s an excerpt from the classic "The Art and Craft of Stained Glass" by E. W. Twining. I thought it's a valuable bibliography for those devoted to painting,...

Is it that important to tell whether a particular technique or style was done in the past?. I believe that a particular person is really new, despite the fact that he/she has parents and education he/she is still unique. Renovation, is'n it the Easter spirit?. A new soul out of an old and tired one....

I would wonder why Seattle (and that countries where the Studio Glass Movement have grown up) is the site where the Venetian glass art renassaince took place. I believe it was Pilchuck the first glass school at least in such a dynamic way. Teaching and teaching and teaching. I think that only the be...

Dear friends,

It’s me again. I have found this interesting work entitled “Direct Digital Image Capture of Stained Glassâ€

Hello,

I have found a nice site to see on the matter of nuclear radiation.

http://www.uic.com.au/ral.htm

Yes Bert, that is what I meant.

My apologies if I couldn't express it better.

Hello, When I wrote natural and artificial radioactivity, I meant the SOURCE from which it came. I agree with all of you in most of your posts, adding neutrons as the most killing radioactive agent because of its high energy and penetration. That’s the point. Natural (occurring) and artificial (ar...

Bert and all,

I have found a very interesting site...

which deals with conservation of many materials. Although the title is “Methods of Conserving Archeological Material from Underwater Sitesâ€

Hello friends, In a thread devoted to separators we discussed advantages and characteristics of different materials. One of them, zirconium, carries naturally occurring radioactive elements of the uranium and thorium series. In fact, zirconium MSDS advises to avoid inhalation to prevent from radioac...

Nikki,

Thank you for the link. I always feel nature so inspiring.

I will stay tuned to see your SiC vs. Al2O3 microphotographies.

"...As for color change, I'm not sure what you mean."

Steve,

I mean local decolorizing (Sp.?), a lack of color in the pit surrounding. I wonder if somehow the pit content have eaten the near matrix color.

Hello friends, I have received a consult regarding a kiln "accident". A floor element have got some glass which dropped from the shelf. Would you know what can she try in order to save her element? Apart form this I am curious. The common understanding that 1/4" is the equilibrium thi...

Hello; There is something I remain doubtful (I am a stubborn man). Blasting with SiC irid or no irid surfaces, then sandwiching and firing will probably (or for sure) result in a haze appearance. But what effect did you get when blasting with SiC a colored glass surface, then firing. I believe I hav...
