I bought a Ryobi tile saw from Home Depot for $129 and a glass tile blade for $29.95. Seems to work great!

I just remove it with a razor blade. You could use a heat gun to warm it up then use the razor blade.mbmccann wrote:thanks for the advice. I think i would have freaked to have gotten a black kiln.

Re: Gryphon Ring Saw accessories?
Just call Gryphon and see what accessories they have. They can also refer you to a store as close to you as possible.

Wingfield-Clements glass
Steve Clements came in my shop the other day to have me make a couple of very small windows for a project he's working on. He left his card with his website on it and I thought I'd share it. Some really interesting castings.

Re: Building a glass storage cabinet
Pretty much a mix of everybody's glass. And, that's just one side. Same amount on the other side and behind and half sheet racks at the back.Morganica wrote:No, Rosanna, I think AndyT wins...that looks like Bullseye's glass racks!

Re: Drying Wood in Kiln
You'll have to leave it in there a long, long time. Even in warm weather a wet log can take months to fully dry out. I used to chop wood for a living.

tap plastics......they have large and larger boards that fit all the parts I couldn't find anything at Tap that even came close to the Morton boards. My (small) Tap has them in stock.

You would need to mount that to some sort of base otherwise everytime you picked it up the glass shards that have fallen into the spaces would just end up on your workspace.Kevin Midgley wrote:Check out the grid light diffusers for fluorescent tube lights at your local building supply centre.

Re: new cutting system needed--no more Morton's!
Morton is making an interlocking grid system. Two per pack so you'd need 2 packs to make a large grid surface. Creator's Stained Glass also makes a 4 pack and a 6 pack and works with all the Morton products.
