While there were some sheets that were surprisingly thin, the bulk of the numbers are very close to the target of 0.1181" Tony Tony, why do you say the "target" is 0.1181" ? The testing published by System 96 to prove their longer working range is based on the premise that a sin...

Michael,

Are you referring to Bullseye's "double-rolled" clear or our "machine-rolled" clear?

?ve been wondering when someone was going to notice this. Many users don’t realize that most System 96 glass is 15-20% thinner than BE. So what? In your case you had to use more glass to avoid needle-pointing. I wonder if anyone has noticed anything else that relates to this? Trying not to slam th...

Incredible. Is there any chance you could make it so when you click on the photo you get a larger version of the picture? I wish I could see more detail! Amazing. Amy Hi Amy, I'll talk to the webmaster tomorrow about this. I'm sure it's possible. In the meantime we are in the 11th hour of a catalog...

The exhibition of kilnformed architectural screens at the Bullseye Connection Gallery is finally totally installed with the remaining full images online. I think that some fanatics in our community might enjoy seeing just how BIG and (only seemingly) simple kiln glass can be: Allied Works is the fir...

Rosanna, thanks for the info.(damn! where's my mail?)... Ed will be thrilled that they left him in the picture (he was sure they'd Photoshop him out)... those are a pair of Jun Kaneko kilncast glass arches he's playing around.... the racoons use them as slides.... all the glass at our house is Teste...

What???? ... haven't seen it....If the cat in the pic is homicidal Eddie, I just know someone's gonna call America's Most Wanted. bye bye kitty...

In terms of facilities, organizational talent, and teaching program, I can't think of a better kiln glass studio on the East Coast than Vitrum. Barbara, thanks for the info on this new class. It sounds fantastic - and you sound like some lucky guinea pigs! I want to know more about the "new met...

A few fine points:

1. Technically, what Giles does is not a “roll-upâ€

Hi Deborah,

Can you be more specific about which “yellow glassâ€

Sheesh, is our conference room bugged? This has already been proposed to Warren.... our architectural show is up during his class, Ted is his TA, we could/would do this... but it's up to the students.... are you one??? Who else is taking Warren's Pilchuck class? Carol? Yeah, I'm one of the students...

You know, I think Bullseye should take this opportunity to sponsor a field trip for Warren Langley's upcoming architectural glass design class at Pilchuck. Yeah, that's the ticket, ... an overnight field trip, ... to the opening reception, ... with a barbecue, ... at a swimming pool, ... with lots ...

One trick will be to get a company to make scaled down spider hardware. I met some Italians who seemed open to making custom stuff. Bert, the collaboration with the steel company was one of the coolest parts of this project. Columbia Wire and Iron is the company that Gehry used to do the Experience...

I find interesting the relative lack of bold, primary colors -- Not a good or a bad thing -- just suprising. - Paul Paul, I wasn’t surprised at all….contemporary architects – with a few rare exceptions like Mexico’s Legorreta or Barragan – seem to avoid color like the plague. We were actu...

Not being ones to learn from experience, we jumped onto another project this year introducing architects to kilnformed glass. This time – and we thought the chandeliers last year were a challenge! – they were given the direction to create interior screens. We urged them to use modules rather tha...

You need a base glass. I use clear of a known type. Cut a strip of that glass about 1 1/2" wide and several inches long. (how long depends on how many pieces your are testing) Cut the test glass in a square, around 1" by 1" or a bit smaller. Cut one test square for each square you ar...

Carla, (ick, another book.....) Dunno how many people actually test with polarizing lenses. I’d be curious to know. It’s simple, it’s cheap; if the project is important, why not? Re Uro 90 and BE compatibility. Here’s what the manufacturers say: - Uro says their 90 glass is compatible with o...

All of Peter’s points are excellent and give us lots to think (and no doubt argue) about. Meanwhile… 1) Lest anyone think I declined a GAS nomination because of any gripes with GAS: not so. I would have loved to work with GAS on that level, but had other major commitments this year. Not the leas...
