Thanks for your replies. I am hoping to find a booth, but the few here are blasters for boats or machine parts. No glass blasting done on the island!

yup,glass strips ,kind of like a flat marty piece. What size screen to use? Ya know what was weird, the top, under the heat, the French white strips seemed to bleed out , not stay concise like the back side( maybe now my front!) I thought white was the hardest! Could it be the french thinks of itsel...

Can you use beach sand to blast.? I found someone to bring over their equipment( I have the compressor) and he has "slag" and sand. I want to blast off fiberpaper stuck to the bottom of a 15x15x1/2 end tabletop.

Come on, now you expect me to know what i'm talking about!!! Greg, I replaced evil kiln shelves with this material called fiberboard that you can cut to make your own mold froms or kiln shelf(that reats on bottom of kiln) I also did not like having two shelves, and the seam, in my kiln, finding it l...

I am using "Famous Marty"s " technique for the first time . I love being able to lay out my design, actually playing with a variation of yours Marty, on the board. The only problem is who am going to get to carry it to the kiln for me. the board with the glass weighs a bloody ton for ...

I love having no seam in My JenKen oval 9 but the fiberboard is stymying me. :cry: I originally used hardener on it before my first firing but when I went to sand it , it scratched and marred like crazy. To smooth it out I resorted to kiln wash (Just what I was trying to get away from!!!) Now, obvio...

Maybe I just chose the easy way out but i bought a large(wide) barrette mold and can fit 4 to 5 on it at a time . It's good to fill in those corner spaces too when I have my large molds in the kiln

Charlie,
I understand the wear from usage and pressure but how does the quantity of water figure into this
Drizzle or not, here I come

thanks again. I did get hooked to a belt sander wheni took classes at Urban(froze my ------ off) and Corning. Sooo versatile and as was said, can hog the stuff off you need. I don't do too large, but will be working on table inserts hopefully this winter. I'm a pipsqueak myself, so I'll make what I ...

lauralei,
I am impressed at your vast knowledge of the cartoon marionette world. I just love saying Baron Barracuda. always want to name something that. Aha, a new glass direction!

your admirer,Jeri

so, in your humble opinions, do I go with the one from CR laurence or go to somaca. :?: It seems the prices are comparable. I really would prefer a "tabletop" unit for space and water is no problem, but am I shortchanging myself. I most definately will not be using it on a daily basis. Is ...

I just looked at Kingsley's site and there deluxe wet belt looks just a little bit smaller them the CRL64 and significantly cheaper. Smaller moter and a bit pricier belts. do I consider this one?
Jeri

AS usual, I can count on you guys for a good response! Question Bert,
do you mean sometimes not to bother with cork and firepolish after using 400 belt.
And Tony, I agree with you, i don't need the felt polish with what I do either
Jeri

Hi everyone and thanks for your help before. I am thinking of getting the smaller sander then the 106 because of floor space and this way I can mount it on same table with me saw. The price they quote is 1240. Good/bad. Please don't even recommend I build or refurbish one myself. My days are too sho...

hey, what's wrong with remembering the Jetsons. I still waiting for rosie the maid to come into my life.
anyone remember Diver Dan and what was the barracuda's name!!
Jeri,dated once again

Never heard of it Brock. Where, Why Cost. You know the drill.
BTW, It was great seeing you at WGW
Jeri

Arghhh, are you saying that the pumps are now a problem with the saw. I hooked up a neat dual bucket drip system submerging my pump(thank you Marty) Works for me
Still getting wet though Jeri

Ok guys, I may attempt to build my own kiln one day, but putting together a sander I find a wee bit daunting. Especially after the shock discussion. some find my life shocking enough! (Yes I really do live year round on an island with no fast food or malls. Going off island to a CVS is exciting; ahh...

I have a jen Ken Oval 9 and the seam drove me nuts, aside from having an evil shelf. I cut a piece of board to fit the whole bottom and it's great to have. I have a down side though and maybe it is the way I am treating it, don't know. Even after I rigidized it, it has been very tender, to say the l...
