I made a glass panel for a friend and she plans to hang it in a window-opening in between her dining room and kitchen. The glass is small enough that there is a 1 3/4" margin around the opening. My question is the method of hanging. I have been looking at clamps, two top and two bottom but ther...

No, Bullseye clear. After a bit of research, I think I know what I did. I held it too long at the top full fuse temp. It's a big piece and I was worried it wouldn't fill in the gaps for the carving technique. I do have some areas in the big piece that has a film. Am looking into sandblasting service...

I've used it for years and just bought the large roll of Bullseye thinfire! I really only had an issue one time with opal powder blue but this is Bullseye clear. This is frustrating to say the least. Does anyone have a way, other than sandblasting, to get it off? I have a large piece that I fired wi...

I'm having an issue with bullseye thin fire leaving a residue on the underside of my glass. The picture shows the whitish haze on the part that is against the thinfire. No haze where 1/16" fiber paper is used. Any suggestions? http://i1291.photobucket.com/albums/b551/Alice_Benvie_Gebhart/image_...

Thank you all. Very helpful.

Thanks guys. This gives me a great perspective. I would like to work with professionals in the field, if possible, but don't want to give it away either. I was given a 40% discount by well-known lighting craftspeople being that I was an artist and they were artists and was overjoyed by that. Didn't ...

Well, I have been contacted by some different design firms who have seen different pieces online asking for a "designers discount" if they purchase a piece for a client. Not sure how to approach this. Is a wholesale rate of 50% off retail common in these cases? What are your practices? I w...

Thanks Bert. I saw that on Warm tips and thought that as an option for the lid. I do have a cathedral-type ceiling and can find the beams easily.

I just bought a new GF8CS kiln. It took awhile to get it and get it up and running and have a few questions for the exports. Firstly, I am looking into getting a hoist to help with lifting the lid. I reviewed the warm tips for a pulley system and that was helpful. I also looked into using a pulley a...

Thanks for options.

Using Husqvarna SuperLock Glass Plus diamond blade.
The saw goes along fine, cut is great then all of a sudden it seems to jump and blade seems to skid across top and spark.

I have a DeWalt D24000 which has a 10" blade but the problem I am having I had with a saw I had at the beginning of my glass career. I'd just like to know what is going on. I am cutting and it is just fine but then it seems to pull the glass quickly through the cut and not cut all the way throu...

Hi friends, I wish to purchase a new and larger kiln. I have been looking at the Denver kiln KL-50 which is 30 x 60 x 12 interior and the Olympic GF-10 which is 30 x 48 x 12 interior. Both are about the same price. I am looking for a new kiln so I can work larger and use it for classes but my primar...

Don't know why it got taken off.
Try this again.

I haven't posted in awhile as webshots has changed and my photos just wouldn't upload. I moved to photobucket and think this will work. My newest piece is called Quiet Sunset and I did it as a commission. My client wanted trees, bright colors with purples, oranges and reds. I am pleased with the res...

Thanks Cheryl.

Just wondered what kind of things you sell and if it was lucrative for you.

I have started to make some functional pieces as well as some items I may like to wholesale. I have been considering wholesalecrafts.com and was wondering if anyone has used them and has any advise for me.

Throw the old silicone away. The silicone works great s long as it is not old. The only times it didn't work for me was because it hadn't set and that was because it was beyond its expiration date. So be careful of the old stuff.

I have your amber one on my pinterest because I love it!
