Hello!
Hello to all of you and Thank You for creating and maintaining this site. I am a newby to the glass artworking circles and will be in need of advice and direction in the months to come as well as tips on what I need for equipment. I have been compiling a small collection of reference books but am having difficulty finding basic "how to" in laymans terms. I also have a "Paragon A-88-B kiln that was donated by
my mother with much resistance from my father. Tough nougies dad. I have began reading the tutorial on this site and it appears to very close to what I am looking for. Any insight for a beginner would be greatly appreciated and I may be of assistance to many of you with my multitude of knowlwdge in the repair and set up of equipment ( Ex-Maintenance Technician and Jack of all Trades). Thanks to Julia @ White house books for pointing me in this direction. You are the best. Bye for now Douglas M.

Re: Hello!
one of the best investments you can make is to buy brad's warm glass book which is where the tutorial comes from - excellent beginning info plus more advanced topics for when you're ready. also you can get 8x10 pieces of bullseye glass for very good prices at aaproducts.com to use for learning/experimentaiton/prototyping while you learn how fusing works with your kiln - each kiln is different....fixdit wrote:Hello to all of you and Thank You for creating and maintaining this site.
