All you can do is to glue them to each other. 2. Perspex (trade name) do belongs to group of acrylic resins - it is (poly)methyl metacrylate [PMM]. It is produced in many countries under various trade names - in Europe plexiglass is commonly used as a synonime of all brands of PMM. It is used in aircraft industry indeed (I have a piece of it from US aircraft which is now 55 years old - still transparent and only slighty yelow). 3. PMM transparency is higher than of glass, particularly in UV region (unless specially treated), but it is not scrach resistant and bends easily when heated - because of that it cannot be used in windows in large sheets. 4. PMM is produced in many colours, shapes (rods, tubes, sheets) and dimensions 5. It can be easily cut, sawn, grinded etc with typical woodwork and metalwork tools, as well as bended, glued and so on 6. There are many books describing techniques of working with PMM as it is now very popular artistic medium: jewelry, sculptures, bric a brack etc. 7. In some cases (for instance as a protection) another transparent plastic can be considered - polycarbonate. It is commonly known as Lexan (at least in Europe). It looks very similar to PMM but is much more resistant to breakage - riot police shields for instance are made out of it. It has, however, the same disadvantages as PMM.

I keep putting this off because I have no clue what to write about. But, I'm enjoying the information and friendly posts of the bunji group so much, that I feel guilty for not having paid my membership fee. 'IA' (cncptthnkr) offered the dubious wisdom of citing criminal activity in a bio. While this is TEMPTING, and would no doubt make for a more exciting read... alas, I find myself unequipped for the challenge. IA... rest assured that I'm working on it! (not!) I think I'll knock over a glass truck... cleverly disguised as Patrick! (wearing a tutu). THAT should allow me bungi bragging rights for the next bio update. (probably from behind bars, teaching stained glass in the local pokey) My name is Blake Young. I am 35 years old. (Male. Yep... I've met several female Blake's of late... go figure!) I have been working with stained glass for about 4 years now. I was born and raised in Houston Texas. Most of my life has been spent in Houston, with the exception of 3.5 blissful years in paradise, or as most people refer to it, Austin, TX. Many people assume I went to college there, but it was nothing quite so noble. I went up to see a football game with friends one weekend in my late teens, and the next weekend, I had a job and an apartment there. (editor's note.... I truly HATE sports, but have to admit, it was a great game!) I moved back to Houston with hopes of getting into the travel industry. (lofty goals, eh?) I worked as a corporate travel agent for the next 10 years. The career was a love/hate relationship. I LOVED the computer aspect of working in travel, and most of the customer relations, but I learned to hate existing at the whim of the airlines. (gosh I sound bitter!) I really did enjoy working in travel, but I sure don't miss many of the headaches. Almost 3 years ago, my roommate and I got a wild hair and bought a Victorian house in Fort Smith, Arkansas, where we now live. The house was built in approx. 1888. It is of Eastlake style with a little Queen Anne influence. It is my pride and joy. I love it! We don't have alot of money to fix it up, but we're in no hurry. We do a little more every year. Regarding the move from Houston to Fort Smith....? Yikes! Talk about culture shock! It's a lovely little town, but there's not a glass store within 2 hours of it. No theatre, and few restaurants. BUT on the up side.... it has considerably less traffic and I've yet to hear gunfire. I now work for a local internet service provider, as a 'customer support technician'. (yep yep yep... it's the official title... I prefer 'tech guy') I'm not a natural computer wiz, but they do fascinate me, and I love figuring them out! I've always liked to view myself as the moody, artistic type... with an emphasis on the moody. Frankly, the artistic part is pure fabrication, but 'moody, moody type' sounded redundant. I LOVE doing stuff! Nothing especially productive.... just doing crafting/creative stuff. My hobbies are: ***Stained Glass (nearest and dearest to my heart!) ***Black & White Photography (I have a darkroom, but use it much less since the glasswork began) ***Rubber Stamping (cards, etc. My sister inflicted this strange little addiction on me, and I can't seem to give it up!) My 'not necessarily hobbies, but love em anyway' activities: ***Gratuitous squandering of countless hours on the computer ***Movies (love em! can't live without em!) ***Nintendo (I know... ebmarrassing but true. I'm still looking for a Nintendo 12 step program....) Apparantly I'm safe from NO hobby. I just try to keep my exposure to new ones to a minimum! Four years ago, when we started looking for a Victorian house, I ordered a stained glass starter kit from Delphi online. I was instantly hooked! I work primarily with the copper foil method, although I have done some work with lead came. I am beginning to work more with came on bigger panels. I have repaired one of the main antique panels in our home, but most of the others are in remarkably good shape. I have done one lampshade. An Odessy dragonfly lampshade. It's beautiful. I could be a little biased. *grin*! I would like to make my glass hobby into a living. I don't anticipate it happening in the near near future, but I am hoping to someday make it a reality. (yes, I know this probably sounds naive, but ya gotta dream don't ya?) I think I've rambled pointlessly for long enough now. I love being a part of the bungi group. Money can't buy advice and generosity like I've found here! *group hug*! Thanks alot y'all!

When I was 12, my mother moved us to North Bay, Ontario where my she has a large extended family. We started to attend the family church regularly and this was a new experience for me. Our family pew was right next to a lovely and very traditional stained glass window dedicated to my great grandparents. The subject was the Baptism of Christ and the detail fascinated me. I spent hours gazing at that panel and the one beside it, only half listening to the minister. I couldn't figure out how the detail was added to the glass (the folds in the robes or the expressions on the faces). Then I noticed that many of the older homes in town had stained glass transoms or window panels and I decided that I wanted one in my home some day. Since then I've been tempted by stained glass work. When I go to a craft fair or even a gift shop I spend far too much time admiring the items on display (just ask the person I'm with). I didn't know anything about it. I just wanted to stay there and gaze. Now, of course, I am more discerning. I look at the items to see how they are constructed, which glass has been used, how many pieces, etc. Over the years I've been married, had a daughter, divorced, quit work and went to university for 4.5 years, spent another 7 years paying off my student loan and finally got to explore the medium of glass. I'm in heaven (when I'm not cursing my lack of skill). I took a beginners glass class last spring and am totally hooked. I'm still not particularly artistic. I work from patterns for now and get my dear daughter to give me an opinion on the colours. I'm learning.

Just be sure the coverage and texture of the paint is what you want. Squeege oil might be the best carrier.

Now I have a new torch set up (never done this before) and am having trouble with the glass. It is a propane/oxy torch, a Carlisle Mini CC. I am running the torch at 2-3 psi on the propane regulator, Oxy at 5 psi. Medium flame only slightly yellow, as recommended. Starting with soft Moretti glass (going to pyrex later), and have about 20 different colors to play with including clear. I am getting a lot of little bitty bubbles, and brown streaks in all the colors I've tried so far, on cooling (in vermiculite in coffee can) most are turning dirty gray. For learning and practice, I'm just trying to wind on a basic bead of each color to check for color changes. The mandrel winding and glass rod turning is no problem, I get a good shaped round or cylinder bead. I've tried several different oxy/fuel settings, still get the bubbles, brown streaks etc. All the variations I've thought of, are not helping, so will someone take pity on a beginner bead maker with some tips? I have several videos, and books, So have the basic idea, what now? Since I'm new at this, what am I doing wrong? Glass too hot? too far out in the flame? too close/ too much gas (maybe soot?) I've tried a 'blue' flame still same results.

Roseanne What material is your daughter using to glue the tesserae too? Wood? Metal? If it's wood and she is using it outside or in damp conditions she might want to use marine grade/exterior plywood. She might strengthen the grout with acrylic admix.

Cement mortar is usually the base for a mosaic. It secures the mosaic to the base as well as to the grout in between the glass. She could use a cement that has an adhesive added to it for extra strength too. I find if I'm using the admix instead of water I get better results on some projects. If I do the mosaic on a base of cement I don't use the admix just grout. I've had the above problem before on wood base. I think it was because the wood absorbed the water in the grout, therefore making the grout unstable and fall apart. That is the only reason I could think of as to why the grout cracked in the first place. I use exterior grade plywood, sanded grout, acrylic admix instead of water if I'm gluing right to the wood. Hope that helped some.

They basically sell two kinds - sanded & non-sanded. I've found the non-sanded shrinks so then I need to re-grout. The sanded is a bit "sandier" but works the first time. Hope that helps.

If your not using a glazed pot you want to waterseal the inside and outside so the pot won't crack. In our climate our pots crack if left outside and are not sealed. If you mosaic the whole outer area with grout you don't have to waterseal that part before grouting. But you should waterseal it after you finish the outer area of the pot. You can waterproof with white glue (outdoor safe) or use the patio paint in clear. I use patio paint for my fountains and pots.

I've done dozens of clay pots with stained glass. Sometimes I cut my glass into little squares, other times I just use odd scraps as they are. I use a glue called "Weld-Bond." I glue my glass to the pot, (sometimes you have to do this a section at a time to keep it from sliding all over the place), let dry for a couple of days, then grout with the same sanded grout I use for my stepping stones. Sometime I tint the grout to match the clay. You can get this coloring agent in a bottle at Lowe's or Home depot. The only problem I've had with that is fading sometimes. I always seal my finished pot with a watered down mixture of the Weld-bond. Of course for the best protection, bring them inside for the winter! I don't see using plastic pots as they can bend and flex. This would cause problems with your grout cracking, as it is not flexible.

Wells Glassworks<< For logos and complex things to be sandblasted repeatively nothing beats photo resist. You can either have the resist made from your master or make it yourself with a kit. The Raysist Co. in Vista, CA, provides this service but do a search and expect to find other companies. Last time I checked the price was about 15 cents a square inch, so crop your masters to small size or you may end up paying for a lot of extra square inches. Four to six square inches should do a coffee cup. A pressure pot sandblasting system is best for use with photo resist because they may not hold up with pressures in excess of 20 psi.

For coffee mugs, however, I have not had much luck blasting ceramic mugs. The glazing is so thin that you can go through it quickly which exposes the inner fired clay (bisque?). Then, the slightest bump will chip your image away. Look for solid glass mugs, or even metal mugs .... they'll be much more durable with a sandblasted image.

We seemed to get several calls for small intricate engraving, but our sandblasting capabilities were geared for much bigger stuff and it seemed we were always passing on some "opportunity". I looked into the Photobrasive line of products and even experimented with a couple of their test kits, but when I sat down and did the numbers on investment into all the developing equipment vs the projected income, the "opportunity" really wasn't much. You can even fax Photobrasive an image and (for a fee) they'll work up the artwork and send you fully developed mask. But, you really need a big order to make it worth your while. Don't take this wrong ... I thought the photo resists worked extremely well and there's no way you can beat them if you're cutting resists by hand. I just didn't see enough of a market to justify the expense ... might be different in your area. Photobrasive has a website at www.photobrasivesystems.com. You can ask for a catalogue and price things out for yourself. Good Luck Mike Peck Carol Swann wrote: > > Does anyone on the group do glass engraving?

Requires a compressor, sandblasting equipment and like Bob said pressure pot system. Aicello can be blasted with siphon system at 30lb.psi. Also you need developing equipment for the resist and the product isn't cheap. The film resist is light sensitive and you use black and white camera ready art or halftones. It is developed and then wash out and dried. It's applied to the glass with adhesive, but you can get it already with adhesive backed, but I still do apply it myself. You can be sure to ruin a *sheet* working out the techniques prior to success. I can't seem to wash out Photo Abrasive well, the color is dust rose and hard to see. Mine is a blue and washes out well. Cindy >Does anyone on the group do glass engraving?

The glazing is alot harder than the bisque... It was kinda like blasting flashed glass, as not to over-blast. Thought maybe vinyl cutting would be better. What I don't like is the tempered coffee mugs...wow I've had troubles with them with film resist. So many do not turn out, so I guess I should go to a thicker micron. I don't blast deep (tempered). Also I wanted to get a second blasting pot, just for engraving with film resist. Went to check out a smaller pot than the 100 lb. one I have, and they were just as much $$$. It's a real pain...when I've just freshened the pot and an engraving comes in. Also I just shake like a leaf when I get crystal to blast...grin.
