more air than you currently need
bigger cabinet than you think you need

leave room for growth.

don't forget to factor in possible "hidden" costs..electrical...plumbing for air...use tax..etc....

The discount should be a cost of doing business for the gallery owner. I feel deep discounts discredit the gallery as well as the artist. Small discounts 5-10 % should be written into your contract as to be bourne by gallery, unless you agree to split the cost of "doing business" . I feel ...

Tony, thank you for your advice. I appreciate it. Kelly

Bravo and Good Luck! Your desire will keep you on the path. There may be some pebbles on the way but if you can keep good spirits and the "go ahead" attitude you should be fine. The success of your prospect depends upon how much time you can donate to it. I started this venture 2 years ago...

Thanks for asking Tony. Yes it does have a drain and a drip container for medium/water. If you've been to the Corning Studio cold shop --it would be a cousin to the mill grinding system, but lower tech.&smaller.

Could someone advise me on whether I can use this "honing machine" as a lap grinder. I purchased it CHEAP $150.00, but I don't want to invest in 3-4 magnetic discs if it won't preform for me. Here are the specs: DAYTON Split phase motor HP 1/3 RPM 172S 115Volts FLA 6.0 FRS6Z HZ 60 PH1 INS,...

no attack intended.

I would first give the teachers and the principal a proposal on what you wish to do . The will give you a laundry list of their own concerns--(as well they should) This may give you a better idea of what the schools comfort level is. I have found the more successes you have in the school volunteer m...

You have a great site ---I was drawn right away to the butterfly --since it is a common creature in my own work. The critique I wish to offer --if you refer to Fused Glass Tableware --the sentence "each piece is made entirely of fused glass so the surface can't be scratched..... My thought was ...

:( I agree with other posts. I only see that you are both using the same technique. I'm sorry if this is bothering you on any level..but please consider this bit of advise I was given many years ago when I had my draft book of poetry stolen and my name was erased and the unmentionable being wrote in...

I could probably take a ride over there and get a visual on how much a kilo is....it's about a 1/2 hr. ride from my house. In case I can be of some help.... Did I ever tell you the story of my potter friend buying packing peanuts at a discount? :o 4 semi-truck loads later-- :shock: a good story Kelly

my studio is close to 800sqft. and I believe it is too small for the long term as I am a total tool hound and wish to fill my space with many fun toys. ( a merker for one) a dream... I have 2rooms just as you enter my home that is a "gallery" space to chat with a client or make a sale. I p...

Thanks Tony! I thought so --better to be safe than..... Kel

I'm fairly sure the answer to this question is yes, but I just wanted to be safe. Can I sandblast--etch on tempered glass? No great carving or any thing--just basically want to mask out an area and frost glass. The glass is approx.6-8mm thick. Thanks in advance ! Greatly appreciated! Kelly Burke Mak...

I believe "U got Glass? ", a warm glass sponsor, carries bails that are a flat disc with a loop on top to thread a necklace through. If memory serves me right(which lately :shock: is a little shakey... they're about $5. ea. Hope this of some help. Rio Grande also carries items that may be ...

Thank you for showing photos of the full bail. Better for the visual thinker---like me. I think these photos better describe their usefulness--though they sure look even better with your glass. Love the bails--I'll be punching in my order in the next day or so. Thanks again for sharing..... Kelly Ma...

Is it possible to show the reverse side of your piece?
Thanks! Kelly Makuch

RioGrande.com I often purchase items from them. Like them, and good quality as well as variety. I just started ordering from Halstead Bead --only bead items -but I believe they sell bails in addition to silver and gold items. ---they did not have 1/2 of what i needed and do not back order items--for...

You can wrap your piece in fiberpaper or sandblast the finished piece. You can also, as suggusted, overspray it. For more suggustions, check archives.

Hey Pam , I thought I'd pass this along to you . I just heard from a reliable source that Brookfield Craft Center will be having a 3-4 day Pate de verre Class come July-----The summer classes booklet has not been published yet but if you're still interested in local classes.. I'd call them and get y...
