If I can sneak another cold working question in here...
what do you want to look for when purchasing a flat lap? What are the brand names....The belt sander was much easier...
Thanks, Sarah

I just got a Somaca (spelled right?) vertical wet belt sander...it's my first piece of "real" equipment. It's almost set up, I can post pictures as soon as it's finished. It's orange and a beauty! We went with Somaca for a number of reasons, but one was customer service. A representative a...

Make the move! (I dream of warm places during winter~ ) You could work on a strong production line and market it anywhere. Or..what about moving to your warm destination-perhaps a place with a strong glass/art community-work at a stained glass store by day (part time of course) and work your glass d...

Thank You! That was so nice of you.

hug from Oregon~

I am so glad you guys are talking about this right now! Ok, so... I need a wet belt sander to-and I don't know much about them. But-I just took a class at EGS and we went to the instructors studio to cold work-and what she had was the CR Lawrence standing wet belt sander. Not ever polishing my work ...

If anyone is so kind to help me with this, I would so apprecaite it. It's an annoying request, so I understand if no one replies! I would like to order "liver of sulfur rocks" from Rio Grande. I just ordered the catalog from their website..be here in a week.....and you can only order by ca...

How do you like the CRLawrence sander? That is the one I'm thinking about purchasing-I like that it has the wheels/roller on it, I have not noticed that on other models.

I am on the hunt to for a belt sander!
Thanks,
Sarah

I am interested in maintaining a certain size circle during a fuse. I am looking for suggestions on how to secure strips of fiber paper around my circle in the kiln. I plan to prop the paper up with kiln bricks but fear that the glass still may push out or that i will end up with flat spots where th...

Glue it! Just glue it! And here I am trying to make welds......

I love you guys

Sarah

Hello everyone~ I am stumped on another project (oh wow...again :? ) Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thank you!! So I have this request for a bowl. Easy enough. But they want a piece attached to the side of the bowl (I haven't even got to the auctual placement of the piece yet...still try...

I meant no harm by my comment!!! Far from it. It was very kind of Nikki to take the time to share all of that, thank you everyone!



Sarah

Thanks for taking the time to post that Nikki-informative.

I'm picturing your studio as a mad science lab right now....

hehe...I called my friends and said...I told you so..... and then I picked all the rhody leaves in my yard...... :wink: Thanks for sharing how you do it Annah, (and the rest of you) that certainly sheds some light on the situation, ........ Sarah p.s. Annah~I'm in Eugene also, and I don't know to ma...

Thanks for the excellent advice everyone, something that seems so simple to do, has me stumped! Doing sample test tiles is a really good idea...and taking the time to do them will pay off I'm sure, and the knowledge will come in handy for future (and bigger and better projects) reference. Also, all ...

I'm taking your fusing class at EGS this fall Brock...and...I'm bringing leaves, bark and flowers

~Sarah

humor me for a second folks.... Just the other day I was sitting outside with some friends and I asked them what they thought would happen if you fused leaves between glass....everyone thought the leaves would burn and it wouldn't work. But...... :idea: you can?! And it will leave an imprint! And so...

Thanks for the replies, they help. (ok..I should of known better than to suggest 900 ) I'm a bit concerned that the frit will flow to much when I fuse and then slump.... I haven't worked much with frit.

And Jim...your advise is golden, it's my motto for the weekend

Sarah

I am fusing small pieces of glass with frit, and I just want to tack on the frit-so it still has it's texture. I also want to keep the slump shape of the glass which is bent, so I am thinking do the normal fuse and slump and then do a short third firing this time with the frit added...how high do yo...
