I use an older Oasis machine, the ones used for making frozen drinks. First I heat the glass with my torch or in the kiln, drop it in water, let it dry and then blend. I found a link the other day on a unit you can build with a garbage disposal. Boyce Lundstrum who just recently passed away has thi...

I get orders from all over the world , I just shipped 20 pounds of scrap fusing glass to Russia. I always wondered why people in Australia, Russia, Israel ect didn't mind spending 65.00 for a large flat rate box that ships locally for 15.95.

I did a mess of stainless steel bowls about 9 months ago all at one time- a few I have not used and they have developed brown specks IN the kiln wash. Are they still Ok or should I wash and redo them? Thanks much!
