    And from my 2nd kiln, this morning. This one with fully-opaque, streaky glass and leaded frit Sorry for all the glare. I don't have my photography station set up

    From the kiln, this morning. Same technique, but with a clear base and with plain frit (the piece above used semi-opaque base-glass and the frit was leaded)

    Thank you! I just peeked (the kiln is under 200° now, so it's safe) and the other pieces look good! When the kilns reach 100, I can remove them.

    Thank you. ♡ I will show the others when they are finished, in a little while. I guess I can explain here, since I think I'm the only Glasser. Having purchased an e-book tutorial, I'm not supposed to explain it to others who might use it, without purchasing the book. The set-up is done inside...

    I'm working on a new technique I recently learned, called "Frit-Stretching". Here is a piece that employs the technique - a substantially heavy, platter-bowl. I have a couple more pieces in my kilns tonight that are more colorful. This one is rather muted. I'm enjoying the technique, but it...

    Yes. Internet scrabble - on a smaller board. I only play that and "Wordle". Well.... I guess that's not true. I also sometimes do a puzzle or coloring app when I'm listening to my podcasts.

    Oh, ok. Thank you. Do you think it's inappropriate to have this hobby thread? I wasn't soliciting

    My shop has been closed for a couple years, and I don't think I'm allowed to say what I used to sell for, here. Maybe I can message you?

    My DIL requested a soap dish to match her night light. I needed to fit more in the kiln, to justify running it - so made a couple trinket dishes. These were all made with the same frit, but the soap dish's base is white and the trinket dishes' bases are clear. Very different results

    Thank you. Hmmmm..... I think I'll attach the lights and see if that makes it easier to choose.

    Today was my maiden voyage on the new Porter Cable Table-Top saw. I'm quite pleased with it. Look at these nice, straight edges! This is going to be a game chager for certain projects. Pre-firing, you cut 2 layers of 3 mil glass and stack them - because heat draws glass in until it reaches...
