Good morning all:

Besides etching your name onto glass, how are others signing your pieces? Is there a special pen to use after the piece has been fired?

Thanks.

You could sandblast, use a Dremel or Foredom, silk screen glass enamels, use a gold pen . . .

Vitrea 160 Marker. Baked on at 325 in regular oven.

if you get the chance, check out the kiln-forming video with Rudi Gritsch, put out by the Studio at the Corning Museum of Glass.

in that video, at the very end, Rudi is signing his name with glass stringer and a small torch. I've not yet experimented with that trick, but it seemed to make a neat effect, and isn't probably all that difiicult once practiced.

warm regards,

Eric
