Welcome to the world of glass...I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Do you have any glass shops, craft shops, or schools around you? I have to say I've never viewed a video on soldering, but it only took a few moments for a good teacher to "show" me her technique. While I think there are a lot of decent videos available, it is so much easier and faster to watch someone in person...ask a few pertinent questions...and have them watch you at it. All of the above that I mentioned would usually be more than happy to give you a start.

I don't even carry the Inland line of irons in my store anymore because too many were being returned. Inland always worked very well with me to replace them defective irons, but there were so many problems ....... BTW Inland can be reached at 1-800-521-8428, ask for Customer Service. The Hakko 60W Super Pro has a ceramic heating tip so it works off a rheostat. It heats up quickly, holds a constant temp for hours on end, has a good ergonomic feel, it's light, and it's dependable ...... and it's priced retail around $45. I put Hakkos and Wellers out for students to use and more of them will migrate toward the Hakkos than the Wellers. Hope this helps.

By the way, I'm sorry I haven't answered your question of the other day about where Julie's next lecturing, since you said you'd like to attend. Unfortunately, she just completed a string of lectures at the Queens Museum and other points around New York City. Wore her to a frazzle, you bet; she puts a lot of time and energy into preparing those. But the next one's scheduled for September in Buffalo, NY. Too bad it's so far away, but Buffalo's a nice town ... great chicken wings, I hear, so perhaps you and Paul will make the trip after all. She's lecturing next year in England and Scotland, which might be an even *more interesting trip for you. Leading a tour of British Arts&Crafts stained glass in July, lecturing beforehand near Edinburgh in May.

Try the suppliers links at http://www.artglassworld.com/Welcome.html or http://www.bungi.com/glass/igga/guide.htm or IGGA suppliers Both Glass Crafters in Sarasota, and Delphi have complete lines of lamp components in their catalogs. If you haven't gone home the Keys yet, stop by Glass Crafters and pick some up on your way home. The kits (lamp parts, components) have complete instructions with them for wiring etc. Also if there is a "Home Depot" or "Lowes" anywhere near you, they have complete lamp parts supplies too. If you decide to head for Sarasota, e-mail me privately and we'll get together for lunch or dinner while you are here. Love to talk some 'glass' with you.

My concerns were originally the same as yours, but we got our distributors sample not to long ago, and it has a metal core in it, which adds quite a bit of strength. I can see the plastic came having some beginner hobbyist applications, but for my personal 2 cents worth, I don't think I will be working with it. The add shows a full array of colors as well. Currently, I believe they said it is only available in white and grey, the other colors of the rainbow soon to follow.

This should not be a problem if a few precautions are taken. I'm assuming now that your stepping stone is actually made of concrete and glass. Note I said "concrete." If we're going to discuss this intelligently we should all understand the terms. Cement is the powder you buy in a bag to mix with water to form a cement/water paste. This cement/water paste is the "glue" that holds concrete together. Concrete is the mixture of cement, water, sand, and gravel. The sand and gravel are simply cheap filler materials used to produce volume because cement is very expensive compared to them. Notice that water is a necessary ingredient. It reacts chemically with the cement to make the "glue." I'm also going to assume that your slab will be thicker than the stone. You can get your stepping stone to bond to the slab simply by soaking your stone in water (for about an hour) before setting it in the slab concrete. This will prevent the stepping stone from absorbing the needed moisture from the wet slab concrete and thus not permitting a zone of it to cure properly. Will the slab concrete stick to the stepping stone? Of course it will. Look at all the rocks in the concrete. Your stepping stone is just another rock with a flat surface having some glass attached to it. You will form an incredibly tight bond along the sides and the bottom. Will it pop out? Only if the whole slab does. It will go with it. Just for information, some weeks ago I read a post where someone was talking about the mortar (cement, fine sand, and water) not having as much strength as concrete. Not true. The cement/water paste that coats the surfaces of all the sand particles and all the rocks is a lot stronger than the rocks. If you ever look at a broken section of concrete slab, you will find (in properly mixed concrete) that the rocks fractured through and did not pull out of the cement/water paste. I hope this helped somewhat. If you're wondering where I came up with all this stuff it's because I'm a civil engineer. We had to know a little about concrete to graduate. One more pet peeve I have. I keep reading books on stepping stones telling you to put your reinforcement in the middle of the stone. Bunk! The purpose of steel reinforcing bars in concrete is to carry tension loads caused by the bending of the beam or slab. When a beam which is supported at both ends is loaded midway between the supports, the beam bends down in the middle. The top of the beam is in compression (for which concrete is a great material) while the bottom of the beam is in tension (for which concrete isn't worth a hoot). Thus the steel reinforcing bars are put close to the bottom of the beam to carry the tension loads and to prevent the concrete from cracking. What's absurd about putting any reinforcement at the middle of the beam is that the stress at the middle of the beam is zero. It's the point where the stress changes from compression to tension. If your stone can be bent in the other direction (ie where the top is in tension and the bottom is in compression) such as when an edge of the stone sticks out beyond a support surface, it would be a good idea to add a layer of reinforcement just underneath the glass too. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

On the weighing of the lamp base-Lead fishing weights, and some Fitness Supply shops sell lead by the pound. Less expensive than solder for this purpose. If you have a torch, it is not hard to melt in small quantities, and cast into the shape you want. Use sand casting, or something similar. If you need more info. e-mail me.

Hi Bungists, Back in the days when I used to make stained glass windows for a living, I used painted came in two projects. One was a 16 foot long stylized map of the Mississippi River and it's tributaries. In that case I used blue painted came to represent some of the smaller tributaries. Since this was a interior partition using borrowed light, I felt that the reflective value of the painted came was appropriate. The second was an all pink underwater scene in an all pink bathroom (PJ would love it) in that case I outlined the fish in pink, a whimsical thing. I used opaque paint markers and it held up suprisingly well I have seen other work with painted came exclusively in goemetric designs, and I thought it looked okay... as a juxtiposed design element. You professionals out there seem to spend all your energy trying to perfect your skills, us hobbyists on the other hand just want to have some fun and try out new things so try and lighten up a little and don't be so smug and arrogant for cryin' out loud.

Because they cut a narrower kerf; consequently, the glass pieces are a hair larger resulting in a tighter fit when building the window. This can become important in a window with lots of pieces. If you're constantly fighting shrinkage while your building (and I do! Of course, It may be just fate - heaven forbid that we have too much fun!), part of the problem may well be the shears you've used. The Japanese shears are close to the German ones, but not as well made. The German shears have a larger thumb hole and smoother action, too. In general, they're just a better tool. When ya do it for a living, good tools (and the right tools for the individual ) become very important. Sometimes finding just exactly the right piece of equipment becomes a downright obsession!

Hi Dani, The best shears I've come across were made right here in the good old USA They are square nose multi piece with handles of plated bronze with very nice tool steel blades made by Accurate Machine and Mfg.

A foreign tourist visiting the Gallery spent literally hours in front of it, peering, staring, moving forward to see better, moving backwards to see better, side-ways one way and so on. I abandoned the spectacle with my friends and moved on to the other exhibits, but eventually caught sight of this foreign gentlemen again in the book/postcard/poster shop. He had pulled out a poster of this painting, waved it in the air, moved towards the sales assistant and asked in a loud and penetrating voice: "Excuse me Miss! Have you got this one in PINK??" Hooray for pink cames with hand-painted red polka dots!!! P.S. Everything "sags" with age..... ;-) Elisabeth 'n Toby Dorothy wrote: Then someone will want to special order one of our designs in their livinig room colors, and BTW, can we use that blue stuff for the lines?

There are a number of things to consider. Perhaps you should give yourself a chance to see if there is are a number of people and run a class if you have the time and space necessary. I was approached with much the same notion by a couple of gals (friends of a friend). I put out a flyer and some word of mouth and I had a class of 6 for my first go! More people were interested than I had thought. I came up with some prices for the classes by researching what adult ed classes at local schools were charging. A syllabus of sorts and materials sheet were mailed to students 2 weeks before classes started so they would have time to shop for supplies. This way they were prepared to dive in on the first evening. Do you run a retail shop along with your studio? Friends of mine in Illinois offer special prices and packages to their students. Since I do not run a retail store along with my studio, I found my local shop was more than willing to offer a small discount to my students...after all, they hope the students stay with the craft and shop there! I used a book called, "Introduction To Stained Glass: A Teaching Manual" from Wardell Publications. It was the perfect starter manual. It starts with the basics in lead & copper foil and goes to advanced projects like lamps and boxes. Nothing overly in depth, but enough info to get going...it also has patterns for a number of projects included. Hopefully it's still available! I've run on, but I would choose this way again rather than having a newbie use my tools...sounds possesive, I know!

We what if we paid 4 X Y instead of 6 X Z, and you get the same $$ - so that's how I learned lead.

Depending on the type of class we taught....for a beginner lead course we usually charged 175.00 materials not included. You'd better have your own cutter and all the necessities.....cause you just don't learn glass in the classroom. It was a must for most of our sutdents to do work at home. Our students did have access to three grinders. But we also let them use stones if the wanted to (hehehe). The majority of our beginner students left the class with a few significant pieces. We did not teach suncatchers. We have also done advanced classes $225.00 for 8 weeks. Hour runs alittle longer. Most advanced students had major projects in mind when they came. We have taught designing courses, business courses and painting and fusing courses. Depending on the length of time the class runs, we charged accordingly. my best, pj ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Tue May 6 16:02:12 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com (Smail3.1.28.1 #6) id m0wOtEw-0001FEa; Tue, 6 May 97 16:01 PDT X-Path: juno.com!eldondo1 From: eldondo1@juno.com To: glass@bungi.com Subject: Re: Returned mail: Host unknown (Name server: bungi: host not found) Date: Tue, 06 May 1997 18:58:40 EDT Message-ID: <1997May6.225840.0> References: <<199705062236.SAA22403@m3.boston.juno.com>> Reply-To: glass@bungi.com Precedence: bulk On Tue, 6 May 1997 18:36:34 -0400 Mail Delivery Subsystem writes: >This is a MIME-encapsulated message > >--SAA22403.862958194/m3.boston.juno.com > >The original message was received at Tue, 6 May 1997 18:34:28 -0400 >from eldondo1@juno.com > > ----- The following addresses had delivery problems ----- >glass@bungi (unrecoverable error) >com@juno.com (unrecoverable error) > > ----- Transcript of session follows ----- >552 com@juno.com...

Maybe someone here can help me with a problem. I recently purchased some Jax Green Patina, and am not at all satisfied with the results. I am trying it out on a copper foil piece, which has plain (i.e. non-patinaed) solder lines. When I try using it like other patina chemicals (i.e. put chemical on with a sponge, then wash off), it just turns the solder line junky. When I try to let the Jax patina air dry on the solder prior to washing, it still looks yucky. No green. I then tried a doulbe patina on the other side of the piece, whereby I first did a copper patina on the solder line, then the Jax green. Now I'm getting some very, very spotty yucky green or blueish-green, but in no way is this even remotely consistent. I mean, I really hate what this patina has done (or not done). Anyone have any experience using Jax Green Patina successfully? Anyone know what I'm doing wrong, and can offer suggestions for helping me accomplish a nice verdigris finish?

Jax copper works real well, but it's hard to apply, but the end result is very nice. it stays copper colored for a real long time. i found this out when doing the japanese garden, i must have applied that stuff 6 times before giving up, i got a white'ish finsh in spots, which i kept, giving it a antique look of it's own. ---Mike Savad -- Mike's Stained Glass http://www.geocities.com/Paris/1141 New Pages Added: - New Instructional Guides Added!!! - The Creative Process - How to Find Patterns for Suncatchers - Picking Out Glass in the Store - Plus New Photos - 5 New Pictures in the 3-D Catagory - 2 New Pictures in the Panel Catagory - Updated Shots of The Heart of Atlantis, and Japanese Garden - But That's Not All!!! - My Links Page is UP! - And Awards Page Too ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Wed May 7 07:43:20 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com (Smail3.1.28.1 #6) id m0wP7vk-0001vQa; Wed, 7 May 97 07:42 PDT X-Path: gjr From: gjr@bungi.com (Glenna Rand) To: glass@bungi.com Subject: Subscriptions, etc. Date: Wed, 7 May 1997 07:42:51 PDT Message-ID: Reply-To: glass@bungi.com Precedence: bulk Hi everyone, Just a short note to let you all know I am not going to be here till Monday morning.

I just got some Jax Chemicals,also, this is what I plan to do to experiment: Construct a small copper foil panel for a 'test' subject. About 8" x 8"to 10" small enough to be placed in the bottom of a flat Tupperware(or similar) plastic container. Don't have to be fancy, just 6-8 solder lines, great use of 'scrap' glass too. Clean panel well, soak in water/baking soda sol. to neutralize any flux residue, rinse well and finish rinsing in distilled water. Dry , and then lay flat, use your blow dryer to finish drying each side. Place test panel in bottom of plastic container. While still hot from the blow dryer, pour a little Jax Copper Plating solution over panel, enough to cover whole panel with solution. Take a dry bristle brush and brush both sides. (remember to wear rubber gloves) and ventilate. (Read ingred-this is not stuff you want to breath) Remove test panel after it has turned the color you want(it is now copper plated), rinse. Dry and finish with blow dryer. Pour remainder of sol. in separate clean plastic or glass bottle (don't contaminate new sol.) Label(dangerous). Now clean and dry plastic flat pan(plastic)or use a new one,preferably, put dry (and still hot from blow dryer) panel back in, and pour over test panel the Green Patina. Rub in with a dry bristle brush. The inst. say the Green Patina works only on copper, brass, and bronze. Also it contains Copper Sulfate and Ammonium Chloride. Both are nasty stuff-don't breath, get on skin, etc. Wear rubber gloves, and rubber apron, respirator would be a good idea too. Put a heavy cream on your face and any exposed skin areas, and wear splash goggles. Jax Copper plating Solutions says it works on Iron, Steel, Brass, and solders. It has Copper Sulfate and Sulfuric Acid in it (even more nasty). I also got the Silver Plating solution, and the gold (imitation) plating sol. The Silver Plating sol. works on copper, brass, bronze and silver. It also has Thiosulfate. The Gold finish solution works on brass, silver, and aluminum. It contains Sodium Hydroxide and Potassium Permanganate. I suggest you visit Mononna's pages (links from bungi.com Igga pages)at : http://www.caseweb.com/acts/ and get some complete lessons on chemical safety handling procedures before you try any of this. My background is silver and goldsmithing, and casting gold, silver, and some alloys, so have some limited knowledge in handling dangerous chemicals. Caution, caution, caution. >I recently purchased some Jax Green Patina, and am not at all satisfied with > the results.

I always do a test panel (small) when testing new solutions, and often construct a 'prototype' of a new 3D design I expect to make several of, to work out the engineering kinks. It will save a lot of time and frustration later. Hope this helps you Christie, and any others out there that are trying new chemicals.

It intrigued me. I responded a couple of time, pointing out that I was actually located in UK and was I the right person to help. The replies I received were very friendly and apologetic. The whole tone of the correspondence made me feel confident in turning to the wonderful resources of my friends at Bungi: Any suggestions in response to the below please, other than sources I can offer in Europe.....?????? Here goes: Hello, I am an editor with the Salvation Army, and I am searching for a picture of stained glass that I can use for a cover of the magazine for which I work. I am looking for a stained glass art that shows beautiful refractions of light, and suggesting a sense of cubism as that light streams forth. We want to superimpose on this glass a side view of a simple creche, indicating that the "King to a manger borne," that is, Christ was born in humble beginnings but has a great destiny. Do you have anything that might apply. I realize this is a strange request, but if you do not have anything, can you recommend a source? thanks Jeff McDonald Managing Editor Salvation Army National Publications USA END OF QUOTE On/Off Group replies and suggestions very welcome.

I think it must have been November 1996 when I promised you an up-date in "early" 1997 about my campaign for justice and compensation for my friend Susan - who had to take early retirement on grounds of ill health as Head of Arts in an English Secondary School. Some of you have actually met her in person. She has been instrumental in helping me to over-come my "fear" of drawing. The School where she worked was very haphazard in making HER working onditions safe and healthy. In the last 3 yers of her working career, she was so ill that I had to physically carry her up and down to her bedroom, prepare liquidized food for her twice every day, sit with her all night because she couldn't breathe and was frightened. Life was pure Hell for her, it was also hell for me. Her salvation was her living in this village a few doors away from me and her chocolate-brown enormous poodle puppy "Rupert" who forced her out into the country-side walking. Elisabeth, being Elisabeth, got the "bit" between her teeth and decided that "someone" was responsible for all of this. Through the immense warmth, well-wishes, suggestions, help and NOT least the guidance of Monona, Bunginians rose to the occasions and poured in with help, advice and guidance about Health & Safety. I have accummulated MSDS-Sheets amounting to 3 inches in thickness of all the obnoxious substances that could/would/did make Susan so ill that she could no longer carry on her work - to which she made great contributions and to which she had dedicated her life. Since I last posted information into the Group about the developments, Susan has been appearing in front of one Government Medical Examination Board after another, ALL producing voluminous written reports about their findings. The conclusion IS, that her working environment has positively and definitely CAUSED her illness. The National Union of Teachers in UK has taken on her cause and is paying the bill. THEY have decided that her cause is a fair, just and real one. To persuade THEM is quite a monumental achievement. So what is the situation TODAY??? It is, that in the next few days that Susann's old School will be served a summons to appear before Court to answer a very carefully researched and documented case of Health & Safety negligence. In the last few days I have been working on legal papers that have been very searching, attempting to "cross all the 'tees' and dotting all the 'is'. The School is now officially sued for compensation. Susan will probably have to appear for even MORE medical examinations, demanded by the School (though from now on, she is well rehearsed....). My aim is to get a financial compensation for her amounting to 15 years of residual salary + annual increments, + compensation for possible loss of promotion + damage to physical health etc. On the whole, in UK, people just accept, lie down and die. WHO can argue with the establishment?? I DO and I WILL. It's quite comforting to take onboard the fact that the UK National Union of Teachers agree with me and are willing to put their hands in their pocket to prove it. I would not have got THIS far, had it not been for the immense support, guidance, advice and encouragement from you LOT!! Thank you! I have filled in a little bit for the benefit of "new" Bunginians. To The Old Brigade - again Thank You!!! A Writ is being served in these next few days on the School. What is a difference between a solicitor and a barrister..... and so on. I will answer these questions too to each of you. I am a foreigner here too. The daggers are now drawn. I do not intend for Susan to lose. I will let you All know, when I have a next development. So far, so good. Thank you - once more.

That's wholesale prices. So double the figure for retail price. Now, mind you, these were absolutely beautiful screens made with very expensive glass, bevel clusters, and high workmanship, with everything beautifully done. In fact, they won best of show in the professional crafts competition, even beating out jewelry and silks and ceramics. But this can give you an idea of what high-end fireplace screens are going for. I've also seen a couple for sale in high-end retail gift stores in tourist places, where a single screen was going for $1050 retail.

Date: 09 May 1997 11:29 EDT Message-ID: Reply-To: glass@bungi.com Precedence: bulk The only suggestion I can offer is that Joe Porcelli (he of Glass Craftsman and lampmaking fame) has a video out wherin he uses the Jax stuff to produce the classic green patina on a lamp. His "secret" (which I have never tried to duplicate) is that he uses a "special" Copper patina which actually deposits copper onto the lead line (so he says). Now, where one gets this special copper patina is the big mystery. Perhaps it comes from JAX as well, though I have had a devil of a time trying to locate a wholesaler who stocks the stuff. (Even Ed Hoys, who claims to have every stained glass item known to mankind does not have it listed in their catalog). To be frank, I have never contacted JAX directly, given that I do not have an immediate need for the stuff. Perhaps someone else (or even Joe himself, as he has been known to peruse these pages from time to time) might explain just what the "special" copper patina is, so the rest of us might thereby have access to the bronze-brown finishes that Tiffany and others employed so well.

The difference is the price is lower for the "craft patina" and you only turn the project copper then green. Check the area that has patinas for turning picture frames a patina green. Be careful because ther is also a similar product that is a paint and not a patina.

It was lunch time there when I called. He was most helpful,and said to call if I needed help. The instructions on the bottles are very complete. Use the copper plating (plating-not patina) solution (which adheers to the lead/tin solder). Then the green patina which works on the copper plating. JAX is 1-914-668-1818 in Mt. Vernon, NY- you will have to do some experimenting to get this just what you want. The advantage of finding it at your local store is lower shipping for quantity.. Has to ship UPS ground, with the hazardous package surcharge. And looking at their price list they have the Jax Brown that works on copper too-I did not order that.

Hi, Bubstah, My blessed husband stays home with our dawgies while I go play at W-C. One trip to W-C is worth two trips to Home Depot. Ain't marriage grand? W-C is located in Allentown. It is a straight shot up the Blue Route (476) and then the Northeast extension of the PA turnpike, then turn right for about 10 minutes. I'm in the close suburbs of Philly on the SW side and it takes me about 1 hour and 15 minutes to get there. Our previous field trips have meant arriving at W-C sometime between 10 and 11, shopping, watching Angelo, lunching, shopping, watching Angelo, shopping, giving the house and the first born to W-C and then leaving sometime between 2 and 4. Angelo starts his demos at 11. Lunching is optional, also. W-C usually has coffee and donuts for the "watchers." Does this help you set the time frame? This is turning into a real party! There are at least eight of us so far! Let me know if you can make it!

Actually, it *doesn't* say that you "can't make anything for resale." It says that if you plan to build these projects for resale or commercial use, you will need to write to the publisher for permission. >Anyone else heard of this. I have. But then, I'm the publisher of that book. >Can they really enforce this? I've been talking to a consignment craft shop >that will take anything I can do with lighthouses. Since the patterns are copyrighted material, we *can* enforce it, but we'd rather not. We'd rather people simply do what it says... write to us for permission. If you'd like to do that, we'll send you a letter explaining that if you are making a few of these projects for consignment shops (or craft fairs or whatever), that's fine with us. If, on the other hand, you are making larger quanitites of one particular project for resale (perhaps through a catalog) we assume that a small part of the reason the project is continuing to sell for you is because it was made from a nice design. Therefore, we also expect to start receiving a small part of the income, which involves a small royalty fee. >Seems to me that once I change the pattern to suit me, it's mine. If you change the pattern as to be not recognizable as the original (the simplest legal explanation), you can do whatever you want with it. Like most publishers in our industry, we're actually very reasonable folks. But a few of us have run into isolated cases of copyright abuse, so we have to cover ourselves with statements like the one you referred to in the front of our book. We're glad you like the book and hope you have fun making, and selling, projects from it.

Hi Murry, Its difficult to give an opinion based on the amount of information you provided. I would think by now you have received private email from members of this list soliciting your business. In any case I'll try and provide a little info although its difficult sight unseen. Take bids only from established concerns that can provide proper credentials and referrels from customers who have had similiar work done. Avoid instant experts, anybody can read a book and talk a good game. Very few local glass shops can take on this type of work without jepordizing your priceless windows Unless you have unlimited funding you will have to decide on the DEGREE of repair you should have done at THIS TIME. Some companies will attempt to put you on a guilt trip if you don't agree to a complete restoration right now, conversely avoid the quicky fix hit and run artist. If there are financial constrants, set up a schedule of repair based on priority. Fix one properly now, one in the next year or two. If your windows are indeed authenticated Tiffanys they deserve the best possible treatment that you can realistically afford. There are very few situations when windows should not be removed for repair, if the window required rebracing or if the window needed minor repairs and is puttyed into stone tracery, would be a couple of examples. If the windows need restoration (ambiguous term) but does not require a complete relead, I recommend using a company that will do the work ON SITE as opposed to carting them off somewhere. Many studios are equipped and experienced to perform work in this manner. The work will get done faster, safer and it gives you opportunity to have the work scrutinized in progress. Good Luck!

Hi Murry, Its difficult to give an opinion based on the amount of information you provided. I would think by now you have received private email from members of this list soliciting your business. In any case I'll try and provide a little info although its difficult sight unseen. Take bids only from established concerns that can provide proper credentials and referrels from customers who have had similiar work done. Avoid instant experts, anybody can read a book and talk a good game. Very few local glass shops can take on this type of work without jepordizing your priceless windows Unless you have unlimited funding you will have to decide on the DEGREE of repair you should have done at THIS TIME. Some companies will attempt to put you on a guilt trip if you don't agree to a complete restoration right now, conversely avoid the quicky fix hit and run artist. If there are financial constrants, set up a schedule of repair based on priority. Fix one properly now, one in the next year or two. If your windows are indeed authenticated Tiffanys they deserve the best possible treatment that you can realistically afford. There are very few situations when windows should not be removed for repair, if the window required rebracing or if the window needed minor repairs and is puttyed into stone tracery, would be a couple of examples. If the windows need restoration (ambiguous term) but does not require a complete relead, I recommend using a company that will do the work ON SITE as opposed to carting them off somewhere. Many studios are equipped and experienced to perform work in this manner. The work will get done faster, safer and it gives you opportunity to have the work scrutinized in progress. Good Luck!

Copyright is an important issue for anyone selling work - another good source of basic information is "The Artists' Market", available at most bookstores and libraries. The laws very heavily favor the original artist and it's important to know and understand them. There are aspects of the law that can be very annoying depending on which side of the fence you're on. For example, if I sell you a custom-designed window for your business, I can still use that original image for my own purposes without your permission. However, you cannot use the image to promote your business (on brochures, for example) unless you get my permission, no matter how much the window cost - not unless I have specifically sold the reproduction rights to you. Seems like that should be common knowledge, but it's not. In fact, most folks are surprised.

Restoration of stained glass as it's being increasingly practiced these days (meaning that it's being done in the manner that Europeans have long since adopted) is, as you indicate, a combination of technical know-how and an ethical philosophy. "Philosophy?" you ask. Yep, deciding whether t'is nobler to remove and risk damage in the removal or to leave in place and hazard continued damage being caused by whatever requires careful thinking and a reasoned argument for whatever decision's finally made. My 2c worth and 1c or 2c more to follow. > Take bids only from established concerns that can provide proper credentials > and referrels from customers who have had similiar work done. Excellent advice. > Unless you have unlimited funding you will have to decide on the DEGREE of > repair you should have done at THIS TIME. Also good advice. Scheduling good work by experienced craftspeople over a period of time means that those entrusted with windows (as are their owners, since they're preserving them for those who come after them) can also schedule fund raising to meet the necessarily high costs of good, thoughtful, careful restoration. Of primary importance is the well-being of the windows, not whether studio A or studio B gets the job and can buy that boat this year. > There are very few situations when windows should not be removed for > repair, if the window required rebracing or if the window needed minor > repairs and is puttyed into stone tracery, would be a couple of examples. Okay, Len, I'm with you so far if I understand you correctly: you're saying that it's a rare thing for windows being restored to *not be removed, right? I'd agree with that. > If the windows need restoration (ambiguous term) but does not require a > complete relead, I recommend using a company that will do the work ON SITE > as opposed to carting them off somewhere.

But here I have to take exception. Apart from the most minor repair work, windows being restored should be removed, crated, taken to the studio and worked on flat. To do otherwise may save the client money in the short run, but the hazards to the windows are greatly increased. The client will be glad of the money saved today, but the windows will *not be better off for not having been handled properly. Gosh, it was more like 10c worth. Sorry.

But since the patterns have been published as patterns to use in the creation of stained glass, the finished stained glass panel is yours to do with as you like, keep or sell to anyone, although the pattern isn't yours. > Having said all that, I'll also share with you how I came to be a member of > this group. pj Friend stumbled upon our website and was kind enough to > e-mail me with some nice compliments and a tip that I should have a > copyright notice on our work!

Then he wanted to hold us up for thousands of dollars for "anguish and pressure," or something like that. We told him to "go fish."

I know this is probably a subject beaten to death..... >> but...how do you price your pieces????? Jennifer, there are two ways to look at it: Your time plus materials. Materials are pretty cut and dried. Then assign yourself an hourly rate that you are willing to accept, multiply that by the number of hours you took to make the piece, add the materials, and that's the price. Another way to check that is, $50 per square foot, plus $1 per piece of glass cut. With me it comes out somewhat the same. A third way would be, a straight fee per square foot. I have been told that ranges from $75 to $100. Or Mike Savad's way of $2, $2.50 per piece. They all work out relatively the same. Good luck, I remember the feeling of selling my first pieces.

You would have to change the pattern so much that no one could recognize that it was based on the original. Mike Savad wrote: "I really can't see how they can enforce this, even if you choose a slightly different color of glass, you can use it against them, besides who's gonna know? What are the changes that the person of the book is going to come, then recognize it." Choosing a different color of glass doesn't make a bit of difference. You would still have a copyright violation. As far as enforcing it, sorry Mike, that part's easy. As far as who's gonna know, you wouldn't believe how may calls we get from people all over the world (even Europe) informing us of copyright violations. Actually, there's a very good chance the artist will know. People call me all the time telling me who's copying or selling our patterns or panels made from our patterns. Lots of the calls I get are from retail shops complaining about other retail shops! You know, the easiest way to take care of the whole issue is, if you want to use a design to sell some finished panels, call the artist and ask for permission. Why second guess whether what you want to do is legal or not. Many times the artist will just grant you permission to use the design to make panels to sell at craft shows and small shops. If someone wants to produce and sell on a grander scale, you may have to enter into a licensing agreement where you return a small percentage of the sales back to the artist. I would much rather talk to someone about what they want to do with our designs rather than have to write unpleasant letters to people about copyright violations. So, please, communicate with the artist . . . you may be pleasantly surprised with the answer you get.

I'm sorry Albert but I have never been able to see a clear advantage to taking windows off site, a relead being the major exception. Why? The number of times the windows have to be handled for one --- taken down --- more likely to be removed from sash (high potential for additional damage) --- crated --- shipped by? common carrier ...yikes! studio vechicle? what if.. god forbid a roll-over on an icey road? --- uncrated at studio by who? *Herman, ace restorer from Germany* I'm sure he'll drop everything and run to the loading dock or *klutz jr. the bookkeeper's kid who started last week? --- then reverse the process and do it again Back to the site... how much additional time will be required? a week at minimum, a month what do you do with the window openings in the mean time? cut and fit plywood? lot of additional hours and expense. Staple up plastic? nice. On site.. --- priliminary leg work completed repair glass matched and on site --- painted work done and on site. --- fully equipped self-contained crew shows up --- work station set up in building --- window taken down, glass replaced, bulges taken out, lead joints resoldered etc. etc. --- window reinstalled How can it get any better then that? There are no proceedures that can be done any better in the studio. There are a lot of roadies out there that know their stuff I'm sorry Albert but this notion that all restoration work has to be done in the studio to me is basically a high end marketing gimmick, and a big money maker, perpatrated by the so called conservators. Reminds me of that old TV commercial where the guy is driving around looking to get a new muffler and he stops at this one place and a gent comes out wearing a white lab coat holding a clipboard and says with a european accent "Yes we can do it but it will take three weeks and you have to leave the car!" Obviously I've slanted the scenarios in my favor ;-) but I do have strong feeling about this issue. If in-studio restoration becomes the norm a lot of windows will be neglected because institutions will be scared off by the costs. My .20 worth :-) Len ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Wed May 14 12:23:19 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Wed, 14 May 1997 12:22:31 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #7 built 1997-May-7) X-Path: nwi.net!dloda From: "Dave & Lynn Loda" To: "bungi" Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Subject: Pansy pattern Date: Wed, 14 May 1997 12:28:35 -0700 Message-ID: <199705141928.MAA04333@nwinternet.com> Reply-To: glass@bungi.com Precedence: bulk I'm in need of locating a large pattern incorporating pansies.

I'll try to keep my to a mere 1c worth, continuing your muffler-replacement analogy: I'd rather have my car fixed in the garage where they have the parts and the equipment to do the job right, than have them come out and fix it in my driveway. I don't think the mechanics are running a scam on me by requiring that my car be left in their shop any more than serious restoration studios are running one for doing the job right.

Handling it that way, they don't have to turn to the courts and thus force the craftsperson to sue *them instead.

I believe we have only gone beyond the letter asking people to stop twice. Certainly, lawsuits are very expensive and you must decide whether the infringement is worth pursuing. Additionally, I am not trying to stop every mom and pop basement studio from selling suncatchers at craft fairs. I also realize people use our designs for commission pieces all the time . . . that doesn't bother me. What bothers me is when we find people mass-producing product from our designs.

Several times I have not done a piece that I really liked, which I would have sold at an Art Show, because I did not want to infringe on a copyright. (I'm talking 3-6 pieces of one pattern, done in different colors, for example). I will be happy now, to drop the Book authors or publishers a line, expressing interest, and asking permission to do a few pieces of one of their patterns. CKE is one of the largest publishers of good pattern books I know of, and with this reassurance will be much more inclined to buy more pattern books for my Art and Craft fair work. Since I have had to drop off to 6-10 shows a year, (health reasons) it will be a time saver to include in my small inventory.

All of the characters' likenesses are trademarked by Disney (as well as copyrighted). If you did an original design (aand I mean original sketch of Mickey, no tracing or looking at another picture, etc.) you would get the same treatment. Do not mess with a trademark.

I've always wondered just how to do this. Thanks in advance. Since this was a response to something I posted, I'll respond. But keep in mind I'm only speaking for SGN Publishing. Each publisher probably has a different way of figuring royalty payments. As I mentioned previously, if you're selling a few projects from this book and a few from that book at craft fairs or consignment shops, that's fine with us. We're glad that you like our patterns and have found places to sell them. However, if you're selling one particular project over and over, we assume that a *small* part of the reason for this is because it was made from an attractive design. Therefore, we expect to be able to compensate the designer by receiving a *small* royalty fee. We don't expect a royalty until someone has sold 10 or more projects made from the same pattern. And what's the royalty percentage? Well, that can vary a little depending on the situation. For example, you may be selling wholesale and have to keep your selling price as low as possible so the retailer you sell to can mark it up and make money, too. In this case, the royalty would probably be lower than if you were selling to the consumer at full "retail." Due to these (and other) variables, there isn't a single flat percentage that we use. (This is why we ask you to contact us!) But, regardless of the situation, the royalty never exceeds 10% of your selling price.

This year I have finally decided to do some craft fairs and consignments. With all the talk about copyrights over the course of time I was a bit afraid to make designs out of the pattern books for fear of being sued. I went through the books I had and picked out my favorites and sat down and wrote some letters for permission. With the exception of one person that I wrote to all were extremely nice and gave me permission to use their patterns. Marge was one the exceptionally nice people to communicate with. Overall, I was surprised at the number of pieces they allowed to be made. It really isn't hard all it takes is a little time, plus I think it is only fair. I know I would not want my patterns duplicated without giving my permission. I too would be interested to know the average percentage being charged for royalties. I seriously doubt I'd ever get that big to have to worry about it, but you never know.

It seems only fair to > me. If you designed a pattern, would you not want someone to ask before they > duplicated it and sold it? Jenna, We have not been talking about duping and selling the pattern. We are now discussing whether or not a finished piece, based on a design needs to have a royalty paid because it was done from some one's pattern. There are some who are saying that if YOU (Jenna) creates and publishes a pattern, others that complete a piece from that pattern and sell the finished piece have to pay you a royalty. My point was, if I create a piece from your pattern and sell it (with your permission) to a customer, then if that customer wants to sell it some years later, they must also get your permission. If you don't give it, they're screwed. And a bigger problem, what if they sell it as part of a piece of furniture or their house, do you still need your permission? I totally agree that copyrights have to be protected. If you publish a pattern and sell it, when I buy the pattern, whether in a book or individually, I assume that I have your permission to make that piece and do with it as I please. If I make more than one, then again I should probably pay you some more money (since I used the pattern again). Whoa! These things make me think too much. When that happens, it makes my head hurt. ;-} ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Thu May 15 17:33:59 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Thu, 15 May 1997 17:33:31 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #7 built 1997-May-7) X-Path: computer.net!alewis From: "Albert Lewis" To: glass@bungi.com Subject: Re: What you can do with patterns Summary: Authenticated sender is Date: Thu, 15 May 1997 20:40:34 +0000 Message-ID: <199705160033.UAA28324@ns.computer.net> Reply-To: glass@bungi.com Precedence: bulk > I'm not too sure what all of the confusion is about. It seems only fair to > me. If you designed a pattern, would you not want someone to ask before they > duplicated it and sold it? The confusion for me, Jenna, arose from my understanding that the pattern's copyright prevents anyone else from reprinting the *pattern and reselling it as a pattern, but it was being said that not only the pattern's protected, any item produced with the pattern is protected, too! I didn't know that. If someone publishes a pattern in a pattern book, the buyer buys it with the understanding that the patterns will be used to produce items, some of them possibly for resale. I think it's understandable that the buyer of the book can't reproduce the *book or any single patterns for resale (nor even copy a single page and *give it to anyone else) without violating the copyright. I didn't know (and have had my understanding corrected) that the work product itself is also protected by the copyright. I think the publishers and designers of patterns who've spoken up here have made some good points, are justifiably concerned about huge numbers of pieces being made from what was (obviously) a good design without some sort of remuneration coming back to them, as well. "Good attitude" abounds in those comments, understanding of the situation faced by the makers of the products and certainly no hostile tactics (a la Disney) have been suggested. It seems to me, though (and correct me if I'm wrong) that this all has yet to be tested. In the Art World, too, painters (for instance) have also tried to "participate" in resales of their work. I think it was Jackson Pollack who sold a painting for (let's say) $10,000 in the 60s, but who wanted a piece of the action when it sold (let's say) for $1,000,000 in the 90s. I think the current owner of the painting, as well as the new buyer, told him to "go fish." (On second thought, it wasn't Jackson Pollack, but someone else just as well known).

Disingenuous? Where does that leave > me? Well, copyright is legalese, so it's only natural that comments on legal stuff sound legalistic. Where does it leave you? You can buy patterns and use them to create work, but neither the work created with a copyrighted pattern nor the pattern itself "belongs" to you in the sense that you own the pattern in print or in glass. But you can sell the work created with the pattern or give it away, even though you can't sell the paper pattern or give *that away. That is, you can sell the work, as long as you don't make more than (vague number) of them. If you make more than (vague number) of them, you have to ask permission, which will (apparently) be given. If you want to make (huge number) of them, you'll get permission to do so at a price that the publisher deems fair and to which you will agree because it *is fair. What's happening is that the publishers and designers of the patterns are giving you tacit (that is, "unspoken") permission to create and sell (vague number) finished pieces based on their patterns, as long as you will ask them if you make more than (vague number) or as long as you will pay them a royalty if you want to make (huge number) of them. If my tongue seems to be shoved ever so slightly into my cheek, it is, 'tis. But I think the facts of the matter are right.

They will sue you for anything including 'your dog stepped on my side of the street!' Of course, they don't care, they get paid win or lose. Ask one if he/she will take the case but only get paid if they win-- and see what the answer is!! ..It would seem to me that the person who designed the pattern in the first place, gave up their right to copyright when they in fact 'published' the pattern and in fact--'sold that pattern and book to you'. If they wished to keep it, they should not have sold it, published it or sold it! I would suggest you have more rights to that "Pattern" if you can show that it was in fact offered for sale and you 'legally' purchased it. ..The charge you make on selling of the pattern is in fact false. You are selling the artwork, glass and labour for the project---not the pattern! The "Pattern" is the only thing under copyright--not the artwork around it. Just don't reproduce and sell the "Pattern"!! ..Go ahead and sell the darn thing!! ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Thu May 15 19:38:02 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Thu, 15 May 1997 19:36:37 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #7 built 1997-May-7) X-Path: netins.net!sae From: Scott Evans To: glass@bungi.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Subject: Cutting by hand?

A basic saw and packet of blades is not teribly expensive, and might do the job. You would drip oil or water on the piece you are cutting. Hope the pieces are very small, as this is a slow process. The silver or gold sheets or castings this is usually used for are quite small in comparason to glass. This is just speculation, as I have not tried it. If no one else has a better idea, I'll try this myself and give you a report on how (or if) it worked. I have the saw and blades, and plenty of scrap glass to try. Give me an idea of what kind of glass (water glass, cathedral, etc) and will try it for you. Better idea, if you are close to a retail store that you could use a 'demo' band saw or ring saw. A jewelers saw is a type of keyhole saw, and the blades are about 6 inches long. You'll bust lots of blades while learning the process, they are usually sold by the 'pack' of about a dozen. A 'bench pin' to steady the work is easy to rig. Be happy to explain further if you want.

I'll attempt to describe it to make sure it is what he wants. It is Bullseye Glass, black thread like streamers running through a clear background, additionally it contains a white confetti like substance about 1/2" squares. This glass was purchased wholesale by a local dealer from Mid-America Stained Glass. Currently thats all I know. If anyone needs more information; i.e., phone number, address of wholesaler, etc. Just post or e-mail me. E-mail is pkelly@sagelink.net.

However, when I pay $15 for a book, I personally don't think that gives me the right to make thousands of dollars off of a pattern inside. The artists gear the books MAINLY towards hobbyists, who are making for gifts and for personal enjoyment. It makes perfect sense to me that if you want to make a whole bunch of something, and then sell it and make a lot of money, then the artist who made the design you used is entitled to more than the small amount of your original $15 investment that made it back to their pockets. Just my 2 cents.

That makes sense to me, too. All of the confusion and questions on this point could be easily resolved if the pattern publishers would include a note on their publications to the effect that purchase of the pattern (or pattern book) includes license to make as many as ten (for example) pieces of finished work from each of the patterns as gifts or for resale, but that permission must be requested for production of more than that. Then give the address of the Royalties and Permissions Department for making that request of the designer or publisher to re-use their pattern(s) more than the automatic license requires. Seems to me that that would make everything crystal clear.

If you'll look at the response from the copyright attorney I consulted you'll see quite clearly that they own the pattern whether in print or incorporated into the piece you've created from the pattern. Selling the pattern doesn't invalidate the copyright any more than Norman Mailer's books lose their copyrights when they're published and you buy them. > ..The charge you make on selling of the pattern is in fact false. You are > selling the artwork, glass and labour for the project---not the pattern! > The "Pattern" is the only thing under copyright--not the artwork > around it. Just don't reproduce and sell the "Pattern"!! Go ahead > and sell the darn thing!! Nope, it's not false. Your attitude on this is exactly what mine was until a couple of days ago. Asking the copyright attorney to explain the ground rules on this question clarified it in my mind and I hope you'll understand, as well. And of course you can go ahead and "sell the darn thing!" Even the publishers and designers of patterns who've participated in this discussion say you can "sell the darn thing." It's only when you sell a gazillion of the "darn thing" that they are going to want part of the action. Think of it this way: you're a two-person studio ... you, the fabricator of the work, and the designer, the creator of the pattern for the work you're fabricating. They agree to produce twenty patterns and bind them into a booklet for you to use to create finished work. For that they agree to be paid $15 as long as you build no more than (say) ten of each of the patterns. Pretty cheap. But, says the designer, if you create more than ten of any of them, I should get a percentage of the profit, since it was my patterns that made it possible for you to sell those hundreds of reproductions. If you want to keep all of the profits, design your own patterns. It's not really that hard.

To play devil's advocate on the matter of pattern reproduction; I definitely understand where everyone(designer, publisher, and customer) is coming from here, but let me ask a question to simply ponder. I agree that mass production of someone else's design is simply wrong without permission, but to have to request permission when I use a pattern from a book that I paid for, for the few pieces I sell, strikes me as odd. Isn't a pattern book produced so that others may reproduce the item(s)? Do clothing patterns come under the same such copyrights? Secondly, just to let you know what it can be like from the other side...I quit a job as an Art Director for a magazine to move to Oklahoma. I created and did the artwork for the logo that still resides on the cover of the mag. This was a project close to my heart so I made up a contract giving the logo to the company with provisions...that I retain the right to use the artwork if I so desired without "re-selling" it as a logo and also that the only compensation I would require would be recognition as the artist printed in the mag. When I left the job, the next issue neglected to run my name giving me credit for the artwork. I mentioned it to the publisher and they fixed that on the next issue. A number of issues had no aknowledgement at all. With the most recent issue, not only is my name NOT there, but it gives credit for "cover design & artwork" to the new Art Director! So, what do you do? It's not worth anything for me to sue and becomes time consuming to constantly write letters. I have to give up for the time being and tell myself that I know who did the artwork.

Now you're getting into another arena --- work-for-hire, and the rules are slightly different. We have a similar experience. Michael, in his twenty plus years in glass art, has worked for two other studios as designer. He's had his own studio for nine years. The other two studios still have Michael's designs in their portfolios - they are essentially competing with us using our own work! Recently, we had a customer stop in to price check a design that turned out to be Michael's from umpteen years ago and the other studio was charging 70% more than we would charge today! You might say that those situations really gripe my glass! But, there isn't anything we can do about it, because he was a paid employee (even though in one case the ownership has changed hands). That's life and all you can do is leave the past behind and knock their socks off with your latest work.... which "they" don't have in their portfolios!

I copied some numbers from the glass and assume they are the inventory numbers. There are two different kinds: 1.) black streamer with white squares (approx 1/4'') scattered throughout resembling torn paper or confetti, Number is 235 (white marker number) or 560 (blue marker number). 2.) black streamer with smaller black squares (approx 1/8") scattered throughout resembling torn paper or confetti, number is 234 or 254 (couldn't read the handwriting very well).

Actually Albert, using silicon is perfectly safe for human use, once it has thoroughly dried. I have an old mexican water crock, probably 50 years old. Since they used lead in their glazes and it was cracked inside, is put a thin layer of silicon caulking over the entire inner surface, let it dry for a week, washed it and have been unsing it safely for over ten years. It saved a beautiful piece of crockware. Certainly you could use that techique for goblets, vases, and sho pieces like a drum base or the like. I think I'll talk to my potter friend.

The Salvation Army guy; I sent you a copy of the reply I sent to him. Hope that is OK. Let me know if you hear anything more from him.... In the process, I of course had a closer look at your web-site myself. Quite impressive. You certainly seem to have sorted out the photography side of things (which is what I have struggled with, especially since I have to be my own photographer...) There was another question you asked; in UK, what's the difference between a "solicitor" and a "barrister".? In essence, the solicitor does all the foot-work and the barrister does all the "glamour" work, and a barrister costs a heck of a great deal more. You, as a private individual, cannot contact a barrister directly, it has to be done through a solicitor, who first has to spend time, effort (& money) ensuring that your case is worthy of a barrister's attention So in the long run, a barrister is only as good as the information he is fed with from the solicitor, who -in turn - is only as good as the information and guidance that YOU feed him/her with......... It all boils down to you, in the end. Which means, that you have to do more legal foot-work yourself than any of them put together, in order for your case to be presented even 50% in the way you want it to the Court and Jury...... A cynical definition, perhaps. But quite close to the truth, nevertheless.I'm sure there were more things I wanted to talk to you about, but my head is totally empty at the moment.... Talk to you soon again. Take care. Elisabeth 'n Toby you wrote No you didn't get zapped here....

We were asked by a consignment shop at a local university to do suncatchers of a paw print (the school logo) as the previous artist had quit. Knowing that the school watched for knockoffs very closley we wrote to request permission to manufacture these items. We expected to make less than 50 per year. Because it was a simple design about 6 pcs. and the store told us they wanted something they could retail for about $10 or less, we decided to sell them in the $6 to $7 price range. When the man called from the school's trademark licencing agent, we were informed that the minimum they required was a $500 per year payment and 15% of retail sales. needless to say we didn't produce them!

Howdy, first post here; I've been lurking for a little while... I just wanted to second your opinion on the examples in that book. It was the first book I ever picked up on the subject and those pictures almost discouraged me from pursuing the hobby. I thought if that's the best hobbyists can do then I don't know if I even want to give it a try. I wonder if the pieces were just a product of their time?

Scott, thank you for the answer; as I said I've always been curious. I find this thread extremely interesting and informative, and the ramifications of using non-original art is coming home 'real quick' (boy, am I glad my parents graced me with the ability to do my own!) I wondered specifically because I do design my own work and always wondered what I could do if I saw my designs being reproduced (I do dog and dog sport related work)... Thanks again.

We have well water and somebody suggested there were too many minerals in the water. I bought distilled water to clean with and it solved the problem. Used the distilled water for about a year, then gingerly went back to my own well water. Haven't had a problem since, at least not a really serious one like you're describing. To clean it up on the ones already done, I scrubbed with 000 steel wool, then covered with clear fingernail polish. Good luck!

I have been informed of the average 20% commission charge, though told that it can go as high as 50%. You could try some other shops to find a better % or you could just request a fair price for your work, add on the 50% and see if they sell. Recently at a wholesale show I was amazed at the high cost of completed wholesale stained glass items. I realized at the time that my prices were really wholesale (to friends and family) as opposed to retail. Perhaps your prices are too low as mine were. Good Luck!

Most of the people > I've spoken to say they have been told they need to give a 50% discount > to the shops that order. Just raise your prices, Dee. The expectation when you sell at wholesale is that you'll sell more ... so they have to order more. That's the quid pro quo (which translates to "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours," roughly). If you have a 100-piece minimum, for example, you can introduce certain efficiencies (doing all the cutting at once, buying larger quantities of supplies, thus reducing your costs, etc.), that make it possible. A wholesale buyer takes certain risks (your work might not sell quickly enough to provide the cash flow necessary to keep their doors open, for example; their overhead must be covered just as yours must be; they have to insure your work and that of others, the expense of which comes right out of whatever your work sells for; if they have employees, those employees have to be paid, insured, taxed, FICA paid, etc.), so there must be enough room for them to be able to do all of that (and more) and still realize a profit. Fifty percent is low, actually. In my experience, sixty percent is more common. If you can't give a discount like that, my personal reaction is that you are under-valuing the worth of your work. No offense; that's a common thing, too. Perhaps you should re-assess what your costs actually are, what your time is worth, how much each finished work costs you. Be realistic and be brave. "The laborer is worth his hire," says the Old Testament (or was it the New?). That was true then and it's true now. When you've figured out your actual cost to produce each item in your line, multiply that cost times five: that's your retail price. Retail price less 60%, then, is 40% of retail to you and you've doubled your actual cost at that level. If the item has cost you $5 to produce, you receive $10. Half of that is your own money being returned to you; it's not profit. The other half -- $5 -- is your gross profit. Out of that you have to pay your rent, utilities, salary, taxes, insurance, etc., and put whatever's left (the actual net profit on your time and effort) into the bank or back into the business. Even if you're working out of your house, you have to think of pricing this way, otherwise you'll end up selling work for less than it actually cost you to make (which seems to be what you're indicating when you say you couldn't afford to give a fifty percent discount). Of course, if you sell quite a bit of your work at your new retail level, you'll be getting a healthy return on your investment in time and money. Then you will be able to afford a second home in Aspen and you can invite the entire bungi crowd up for the weekend.

Sometimes three times what I could get for a piece at a craft fair ten miles away. (Areas such as Mystic, CT or craft stores in Burlington VT) Speaking of VT, I don't know what craft shows can be found, but be sure you get a look across lake Champlain at the Adirondacks at sunset. Drive up Mt. Mansfield if you have a car that can handle steep hills. Check out Quechee Gorge (although it's become a bit of a tourist trap). There's lots of inspiration to be found. If you are going through Massachusetts, take a couple of hours to check out the stores in Northampton (there were some wonderful glass blown pieces last time I was there).

I couldn't agree more that many more repairs and restorations can be done on-site than crating them off to some studio. We always try to repair on site, except as you point out, in the case of a major re-lead. And, the main reason is simply to minimize potential for further damage to the windows. And, what's the main reward .......... all that money you're making, NO! It's the lights in the eyes of the congregation as they parade past your work space to view your progress. You mentioned a "high end marketing gimmick" in hauling windows off to the studio .... I think the inadvertent advertising your doing by working in front of a couple hundred people is worth mentioning! I know we capture many subsequent jobs by simply encouraging people to watch us work and by taking time to answer questions. When you factor in this kind of potential advertising, you can afford to be even more competitive in your initial bid. Repair on-site vs repair in the studio ....... I think it boils down to two things ....... what will produce the highest quality in the shortest period of time (and that includes any further repairs needed because you broke something), and what is in the best interests of the customer.

Anyone who thinks the 16th century was bad ought to take a look at the sixties. I did some further searching over the weekend at bookstores and didn't find very much except pattern books. Several of the stores, though, had very recent publications by Lynnette Wrigley and Marc Gerstein that IMNSHO were very good especially for beginners and especially dealing with copper foil. What impressed me most was the quality of the photography and of the designs -- even the suncatchers were quite nice.( Elisabeth, I think these folks are working in the UK - have you heard of them?) These are the types of books that will inspire a newcomer, not turn them off. I'll include them on the reading list which I'll be glad to post in a week or so since quite a few of you have requested copies. It's still a pretty sparse list, but I haven't given up the search. The trouble is, I keep finding good art history books as I search, and it's starting to hurt my pocketbook!

Put the texture wherever you want it for the best effect. If you put the iridescent part on the back, it will appear a little bit more subtle than if you put it on the front. Another effect I have tried and like, is "plating" a piece of iridescent glass on the back of certain pieces of non-iridized glass, or even a whole section of a window. The iridescence doesn't show in the daytime, but does at night with reflected light. The only problem with that is, the plated piece of glass "sticks out" on the back side of the panel. Have fun!

The Bevel Max is the standard Diamond Tech grinder, with some additional disks. I'm interested in trying to make a relatively small quantity of bevels. However, I don't see how the Bevel Max could bevel any kind of inside curve. Is anyone familiar with any other "non-industrial" beveling equipment? (I recall, several years ago, seeing a light-weight machine that used felt and cork wheels and cones to make bevels.) I am interested in purchasing beveling equipment for my own personal use; I don't want to go into the beveling business. I am interested in using large clusters in some projects; and I would like to purchase equipment that would let me make my own custom clusters, in lieu of purchasing ready-made clusters. I would be willing to spend up to $500 for equipment that would allow me to attempt to do this. I would also be interested in any "How To" or instruction manuals about beveling. In addition, I would consider building the equipment myself if I could obtain plans to do so. If anyone could help with any of the above concerns, I would appreciate hearing from you. ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Tue May 20 21:39:23 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Tue, 20 May 1997 21:38:35 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #7 built 1997-May-7) X-Path: aol.com!Redware1 From: Redware1@aol.com To: glass@bungi.com Subject: grinder question Date: Wed, 21 May 1997 00:38:29 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <1997May20.203829.0> Reply-To: glass@bungi.com Precedence: bulk I am just starting to use my Gladstar All-star grinder.

Bullseye and other manufacturers number the sheets for inventory purposes. There is no relation to the catalog number of the glass at all. Richard - if all else fails, you could fuse the matching glass yourself. Wouldn't be very difficult, since it's only fractures and streamers you need included. Ed Hoy lists white fractures with black streamers on a clear base in his current catalog. It's pricey though.

Are you applying too much pressure to the glass? Are you grinding so that the glass is touching another part of the bit other than the daimond surface? Is there a flaw in the diamond surface? You may want to adjust the bit up or down a little to see if that helps, and check to make sure that the bit is plenty wet during grinding, and be careful about not using too much pressure when grinding as all these factors could cause chipping at the edges. Good luck, I hope this helps.

For years our customers have asked us for an affordable beveler and after months of research and design we developed the Bevel Max Studio Beveling System (suggested retail $299). Since its introduction last fall it has been one of our top sellers. The base is the same on all of our Max grinders which make them convertible for additional grinding functions (ie: you can start with the Diamond Max or Power Max and convert it into the Bevel Max or start with the Bevel Max and convert it into a grinder). All bases have the most powerful grinder motors in stained glass and all tools come with a 5 year warranty. The Bevel Max is a four step process which takes about 5 minutes per side. The system includes diamond disk, two grit laps, polishing pad, compound, spalsh guard booth with water bottle and instructional video. Your finished result is a clear, polished bevel. The process is quick and easy to do (when we do demos people with no beveling experience quickly create their own bevels). The response to the tool has been very positive. At the AGSA show this spring we will introduce a disk to make inside curves. Please call DTI at 800-937-9593 if you have any questions or to find the dealer nearest you.

Everything that gets sent or received is converted to BINARY - go back to High School math - a series of 0's or 1's - this is the common language all computers can understand - the Esperanto of microchips. The computer comverts the binary data to another version - either ASCII or EBCIDIC - a human interface so you don't have to understand what all those 0's and 1's mean. some word processors and mail readers use SPECIAL characters, that do not translate to an alphnumeric charcter i.e. 0-9, A-Z. the 'special' characters control the 'typewriter' functions, such as TABS, INDENTS, Carriage Return, etc. I hit a hard return here ----> Depending on the software you use to read the message, you might get the ASCII or EBCIDIC data, or whatever the '=3D' converts to with the software you are using. At the end of each line of the original message I am replying to, I see a '=', and a the effect of a carriage return. The software that created that message most likely imbedded a 'hard' or 'soft' carriage return, that is either the line was going to wrap, or the 'return' or 'enter' key was pushed. the last line has an '=20', which I would guess the author hit a 'hard' return, to form a new paragraph. Given there are not a lot of standards in the industry, it's amazing that we can exhange data at all. There is amil that can come from a MAC, or PC/clone, being read by either, with software ranging from MS Explorer, Netscape, Eudora, PINE, AOL, Compuserve etc. So now that I've bored you all with computer Basics 101, the bottom line is the extra 'junk' you may find in your mail is caused by your computer not completely understanding what its trying to read, or ' something gets lost in the translation'. If anyone wants clarification, or explanations of computer basics, feel free to email me direct, so we don't tie up the bandwidth for the rest of the group. ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Wed May 21 07:46:44 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Wed, 21 May 1997 07:45:48 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #7 built 1997-May-7) X-Path: p085.aone.net.au!allcrafts From: Melanie Dunstan To: glass@BUNGI.COM Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Subject: Re: Kilns.

And on that note, >I prefer the bevel to the inside because with or without light, the glass >looks thicker and richer. I would tend to agree Dani, the bevel side should generally face the direction the panel is usually viewed from. Although, most entry systems have the bevels on the outside which I guess would be the side you would want to project the best face to. I had an encounter with a double bevel window in a Fl. restuarant, it was a nice straight line goemetric assembled with wide heart lead, each back to back sandwich was slighty *out of register* for lack of a better term, and there was some interesting prismatic light play and neat magnification stuff going on.

It is a wonderful reference book. It was First published in UK in 1976 by Mitchell Beazley Publishers Ltd. MY particular edition DOES have a comprehensive instruction of "How to make a stained glass panel" and "How to restore a stained glass panel". It is quite a substantial sized book (about A3 size). The photography is excellent. It is quite pricey. I also warmly recommend the Patrick Reytniens book, which PJ also mentioned In fact, BOTH books I have myself recommended on a number of occasions into the Group in the past... PJ: Do let me know some of the books in French you might be able to recommend (... ahem... just one or two of us might have a modest command of the lingo to struggle through....) Again - for the "Pilgrims to Chartres" (new AND old), may I recommend Chartres Cathedral by Malcolm Miller ( an English scholar who has dedicated almost 40 years to living and studying the glass at the Cathedral there). The photography is as good as in "Stained Glass" (not surprising since the main photographer in both cases is Sonia Halliday & Laura Lushington). There is a second edition of "Chartres Cathedral" just out. ISBN No. is 0 85372 7376 for the hard-back and 0 75372 7929 for the soft-back. Sorry I have bee so quiet lately (thank God! say some!!....) Have just installed a heavy-artillary soft-ware programme which has JUST the spread-sheets I have been thirsting for, for the last 3 years.... Which is JUST in time, since the UK Tax-Man is after my tail again (it's THAT time of year). I am also doing a computer course for about 3 months. In the little "windows of time" left over, I am trying to keep little 82-year old widows happy...... ;-) PJ again: very impressed with your web-site.Did you hear more from the Salvation Army guy?? .... in haste....

UNQUOTE I also like the NEW book Pate de Verre and kiln Casting of Glass by Jim Kervin and Dan Fenton. A real instruction book with loads of good instruction. In our collection we have quite a few french books that we have acquired on our annual trip.

Too bad so many of the oldies but goodies are out-of-print, though. Every glass artist ought to have copies of those for reference. I sent a letter to Dover suggesting they publish "Stained Glass" (there's an original title!) and the Reytiens book (Technique of Stained Glass - another inspiring title). I'd also love to get my hands on any of Lewis F. Day's books, if anyone out there has any spares lying around! Oh, and congratulations on your certification. I don't think we have anything like that here in the U.S.... or maybe we do (?) Maybe Albert knows - how do glass artists officially become "masters" over here? Or, unofficially for that matter. Is it the same path as becoming a "world-renowned" tattoo artist? (I have one up the street from me, no kidding!) I think it would enhance the validity of this old and fine craft if we had a serious apprentice/journeyman/master certification program. Isn't that what guilds are for, in part?

Usually the texture is in the back. When I was teaching glass I used to tell my students there was no right or wrong side to glass, which really there isn't. However, there is any easier side and a harder side to cut. In regular translucent or opague glass the shinier side is most often the front but sometimes there is a much prettier swirl of color in the back, so I use it instead. There's no one to say you can't use whatever side you wish. This is no right or wrong.

First a comment about 'proof': the word 'proof' is reserved exclusively to the realm of mathematics. An objective scientist will empirically 'demonstrate' something by experiment, and the demonstration will be associated with a calculable degree of certainty, but with the exception of working with mathematical theorems, an empiricist cannot 'prove' anything. To contradict this is to resort to dogma, the shallowest of all epistemological wells. LEACHING OF GLASS The physical characteristics of glass (including brittleness) are a function of its intrinsic structure and composition, neither of which can be altered in a 'finished piece' without applied heat or alteration of its chemistry (which would, by definition, be a surface phenomenon). What is however observed by glaziers is that 'old' sheet glass is more difficult to successfully break along a score line than fresh glass. This is the result of three phenomena, surface hydration and leaching, surface scratches, and (for lack of a better term) grime. Hydration: The scoring process crushes the surface of the glass, forming unstable (high-energy) singly-bonded glass-matrix oxygen atoms. Water will hydrogen-bond to these oxygens, stabilizing them, and reducing the tensional forces which would otherwise additively combine with the applied flexural force during break-out. The result is a crack that 'wanders' off the score line -- a bad break. Is this the result of 'deterioration'? Yes. Has the glass become more brittle? The micro-layer of deteriorated glass is probably more brittle than the bulk, but this effect upon the physical characteristics of the underlying glass is negligable. Has the glass become weaker? If, by weakness, is meant a tendency to resist fracture, then curiously it has become *stonger*! You may have noticed that you must apply more force to break-out old glass. Surface scratches: Glass requires two things for fracture propagation, a surface defect and tension. The score line is a surface defect, but so are the miscellaneous surface scratches on old glass. Especially if a surface scratch intersects the score line at about a 50 degree angle relative to the axis of fracture propagation, it's likely that the fracture will leave the score line. Grime: The cutter will ride up and over grime particles creating scoreline discontinuities (gaps). Upon break-out, the fracture will continue along the score-line to a discontinuity, and then veer off at an approximately 50 degree angle from the perpendicular of the score line (i.e. it 'mysteriously' wanders off to one side). Leaching of color: Color can be either in or on glass. Applied pigments (as pate du verre) can be dissolved and degraded upon extended exposure to solvents (including water). Pigmented varnishes are very succeptible to removal. Pigment beneath the surface is effectively 'locked' into the structure of the glass and cannot be leached-out. It can however be altered by the activation of color centers (covered in part three). Deterioration: Glass 'deteriorates' typically by one of three methods: leaching of the alkaline metal flux ions (alkali attack, as by submersion in water), corrosion of the glassy matrix (acid attack, as by HF) and devitrification (covered in part two). Alkalai attack: Leaching is a surface phenomenon commonly seen in old pieces dug up from the ground or retrieved from bodies of water. It may appear as either a milky surface layer or as an irridescent sheen. Unless kept in a continuously damp environment, it tends not to occur on, for example, windows. Intrinsically an ion-exchange process, the leachant must be continuously rinsed away and replaced for the process to continue to any extent. Continuous bombardment by rain may result in apparent leaching, but upon closer examination it may be seen actually to be a milky coating *on* the glass, and not true leaching. Acid attack: If exposed to an acidic reagent capable of breaking the silica (Si-O) bond, the glass is said to be corroded. In practice, hydrofluoric acid (HF) is used for this purpose. There has recently been some work indicating that the humic acids (found in soil) are also capable of corroding glass, but this last work is tentative and not fully accepted as being rigorously demonstrated. DEVITRIFICATION: what is it, and how does it happen? A glass is by definition a liquid at all temperatures. Compositionally a typical glass consists of the 'glass (or network) formers' (SiO2 and B2O3), fluxes (also called alkaline metals, K2O and Na2O), and the network (or matrix) modifying alkaline earths (CaO, BaO, PbO, ZnO). Other oxides capable of glass network formation include GeO2, P2O5, As2O5, As2O3, Sb2O3, and to a limited degree V2O5, ZrO2 and Bi2O3. The oxides of Ti, Zn, Pb, Al, Th and Be can be included in varying concentrations, but will not on their own, yield a glass. These, and other oxides that will not form a glass (including Sc, La, Y, Sn, Ga, In, Mg, Li, Sr, Cd, Rb, Hg, and Cs) are used as network modifiers. Within the glassy matrix there are bridging oxygen ions and non-bridging oxygen ions (which ionically bond to Li+, Na+, K+ or Ca++ in a typical glass). Technically, glass is a metal oxide polymer with SiO2 being the principal monomer of all commercial glasses. In three dimensions, this polymer can be depicted as a random 'cobweb' of silicon ions each bonded to either three or four oxygen atoms. Progressing along any branch of the polymer chain we see Si-O-Si-O-Si-O-Si-O with an occasional matrix modifier ion (as Pb, lead) substituting for a Si. Branching from each Si will be another similar chain of O-Si-O-Si-etc. Occasionally, a chain will terminate at a non-bridging oxygen, which has a strong negative charge. This oxygen will be protruding into a microscopic cavity in the glassy matrix within which resides a counterbalancing, positively charged alkaline metal flux ion (as Na, sodium). A pure SiO2 glass is called fused quartz. It can be manufactured from rock quartz crystals, and has no flux nor matrix modifiers within it. Because of the uninterrupted strength of the Si-O bonds it yields a very high temperature softening ('hard') glass. Occasional interruptions of the Si-O matrix with modifying ions (with weaker metal-O bonds) will lower the viscosity profile of ('soften') the glass. The more alkaline earth oxides added to the glass, the more the viscosity profile is depressed. This is glass when everything 'goes right'. When glass devitrifies, it doesn't necessarily revert to its former, solid, crystalline constituents. In many instances a devitrified glass will not be chemically altered, but rather it will crystallize into its ceramic analogue. ACTIVATION OF COLOR CENTERS Why do some pieces of glass change color over time? In a word, it's called 'activation of color centers'. The details are quite complex, but it has to do with an alteration of the orbital distribution of specifically the valence (outermost) electrons which causes the atom to absorb photons of a different frequency (color) after the process than before. What we call the reflected and transmitted (as opposed to emitted) 'color' of something is the result of the outermost shell of electrons, called the valence shell of electrons, which surround atoms. 'White' light is actually a mixture of photons of many different colors. Color is a function of wavelength which is a description of the energy of a photon. The valence shell of an atom, although conventionally considered as composed of up to eight electrons, actually behaves as a singular 'thing', and thus can resonate with phota of certain energies. This interaction or resonance is often described as 'absorption' of the photon by an atom, which causes the valence shell to become 'pumped' to a higher energy 'level'. Let's work with an example: Let's assume that we have a 'white' light beam composed of red, blue and yellow phota (the primary colors). Direct this beam onto a puddle of red anthracine dye. Anthracine dyes in general have tri-cyclic 'aromatic' structures which are capable of resonating with many discreet spectra of frequencies, which is to say that by slight modifications of their molecular structures the valence shells of their constituent carbon atoms can be altered, which results in the different anthracine dyes appearing as different colors. Let's select a red one. In this example the blue and yellow photons are captured by the dye molecule, and the red photons are scattered (reflected), some of which come to our eyes, and we see the puddle of dye as 'red'. If we put the puddle of dye on a clear film, the red photons will also be seen to have passed through (transmitted). Now, let's apply this to a chunk of glass. The materials which are added to glass as pigments are selected because their valence shell electrons are able of slectively absorbing photons of certain frequencies (colors). Cobaltic oxide, for example, will absorb red and yellow, but not blue, thus cobalt glass is blue. Transparent glasses in general are a mixture of alkaline and transition metal oxides, most of which are selected precisely because they *won't* interact with visible light. Put such a glass in either a high neutron-flux or a high energy X-ray environment, and they will 'become colored'. This is because the glass has been fundamentally altered. Let's take these processes one at a time. Neutron capture: An atom consists of a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons, surrounded by one or more shells of electrons. The outermost of these is called the valence shell, and is responsible for what are loosely called the 'dielectric' characteristics of a material. Two characteristics of note here are the interatomic bonding of atoms, and the absorption of photons. As will be seen, these two characteristics are causitive of some pretty far-reaching and seemingly unrelated effects. If you put a material, in this case a piece of clear glass, into a high neutron flux environment, some of the neutrons will be of a low enough energy (what is called 'attenuated', which is a description of their kinetic energy -- their 'speed') that one or more of them will be captured by (they will 'stick to') the nucleus of an atom. This is how 'isotopes' are created. In some cases what is created is a 'stable' isotope which will have no effect upon the dielectric properties in question. In other cases, a 'metastable' or 'unstable' isotope is created, in which case the isotope will 'decay', usually by a process called 'beta decay', although 'alpha decay' is also possible. To understand these processes, it will be necessary to understand that there is a big difference between what is 'seen' and what has 'happened'. What is seen (in a 'cloud chamber') is that things (alpha and beta particles) have come whizzing out of the target material. What has happened is that the target material has undergone 'transmutation', which is to say that it has actually turned into some different 'stuff'. What we're talking about here is the nature of what is commonly called 'radioactivity'. The beta particle is actually an electron, and the alpha particle is two protons and two neutrons in a cluster; what is otherwise known as a helium nucleus (this is, by the way, where almost *all* helium in the earth comes from, the alpha decay of uranium and thorium). In alpha decay, a 'hunk' of the nucleus 'breaks' away and goes flying off. In beta decay, a single neutron will 'crack' apart into a proton and an electron (and a neutrino). The proton stays with the target atom, but the electron (and the neutrino) go whizzing off. In both of these decays, the target atom has been transmuted into a completely different element, with completely different dielectric characteristics, one of which may be what we call color. X-ray activation: An X-ray is a very short wavelength, very high energy photon, which can so excite an atom's valence electrons that electrons are completely stripped away. This 'pumping' effect is significant enough that the spectrum of incident phota with which the valence shell interacts changes. In the case of clear glass, the change is from non-interactive to interactive, thus the glass becomes 'colored'. What usually happens is that the irridiated atom becomes a radical (a chemical as opposed to a nuclear change) and will absorb phota. The liberated electron is also liable to capture by some other atom, making yet another radical. It's worth noting that this radical formation process by electron capture also can occur with the beta particle (an electron) in the nuclear process described above. Now that the process of color center activation has been described, its reversal can be discussed. Glass, even at room temperature, is a liquid. The interatomic bonds are weak and constantly breaking and reforming. These bonds are, in effect, an interaction of (or, sharing of) the valence electrons of adjacent atoms (for example, in a length of copper wire, the individual electrons at one end of the wire will, in theory, eventually migrate to the other end of the wire, even without the application of an outside force). The *structure* of a material (the interatomic bonding) places physical constraints upon the valence electrons. Therefore, if you activate a color center (by any means) the alteration in the valence shell will be either stable (unchanging with time) or metastable (will change gradually with time). The stronger the interatomic structure (or 'lattice' in the case of a true crystal which is a solid) the more stable the change. The change can, however, be reversed by weakening the interatomic bonds which will allow the formation of new, lower energy bonds (atoms will break their initial bonds and reform bonds with other neighbors). This is done by the application of heat. In practice, the temperature which an amorphous material (such as a glass) must reach to achieve this is *defined* as its annealing temperature. Therefore, simply annealing a piece of glass will deactivate the color centers. Having worked extensively with researchers who conduct experiments which activate color centers by both of these means, I have frequently had to deactivate color centers. The unexpected consequence I mentioned is that the activation of color centers also results in the formation of strained interatomic bonds in the piece, and unless the piece is annealed, it will fracture! As a rule, the more the piece is colored, the more strain the piece is under, and the more it needs to be relieved by annealing. Note that the color doesn't 'cause' the strain, they are two entirely separate issues sharing the same cause. Finally, it's worth pointing out that this color center activation is now so well understood that unusually colored gemstones are created by the process. In some cases, semiprecious irridiated materials are then sold as precious stones, and the difference can only be distinguished by a professional gemologist.

Hi, Chris, May 31st Angelo is going to demo overlay techniques such as the ones used by R.N. Oddy ( http://www.servtech.com/public/rnoddy/index.html ). Every Saturday from 11 to 4 he will answer any question and/or demo any machine that is possible. The "topic of the day" doesn't seem to have a schedule, and we only know about the 31st because we asked for it in advance and a bunch of us are going to Allentown special for that demo. Whatever Angelo is into the day you go will be informative and entertaining. Allow extra time for hanging out in the warehouse to watch! As for spending money at W-C, it seems to be the consensous that it is appropriate to bring the papers for the house and the first born. There is just way too much "must have" stuff there. Sorry you won't be there on the 31st.

Usually when we (husband goes too) go to W-C it takes the whole day. To many things to see and then you have to decide what you can afford to buy and what has to wait till next time. Everytime I leave there my checkbook is empty. Wish I could be there for the overlay demo. I would like to know how it is done. Please take lots of notes.

You have to uses your own judgement on what you want to charge per square foot. I normally get about $55 a square foot on simple straight line designed stuff. I get up to $500 a square foot for very detailed work like the columneddesigned window on my website at: www.artisticglassusa.com. For lamps I find it hard to command the same value, even thought they often represent more work. I guess it comes from the percieved value of the customer on the physical size of the project. They sometimes percieve that smaller sized items should cost less than a large window, although in many cases the time to produce it is the same. A good guess on estimating the cost for small things like boxes and lamps should come from the time it takes to produce it. If you take time on current projects to keep a log sheet for each project and clock in and out whenever you work on it, this will give you great information. After a few projects, you can compare notes and get a good estimate of the time factor involved with each one. Then comes the big question, what do you personally consider your time worth? (Don't forget to add in material costs too). I hope this helps. Best of luck to you !

Does anyone add in anything for tool usage. I'm think this would need to be a small $ figure. I myself have only been using my grinder and soldering iron for 1 year so I really have no idea how long they'll keep going. I guess that's another question for you "long-timers." The iron and the grinder are the only costly tools I have right now, but I would eventually like to have a Bevel-Max and a few other things.

Now I can pretty closely calculate the real cost of materials, add 25% for hard to calculate stuff like electricity and new soldering tips etc... Then I know more or less how many pieces i can do an hour, and by then I usually have a pretty good idea of what the customer wants as a design. Then at this point, I have them sign the contract, mine has a ball park figure of between ________ and ________ to be firmed up as soon as the design is approved. They then pay me a little and I design it. As soon as the design is approved, I ask for the remaining $ to make it up to 50% of the total which I now tell them exactly. I know how much I expect to earn an hour, which I didn't to begin with. Most of my contracts have been with friends, so this both helps and hinders.... Anyway, so far this has worked for me. Hope it helps you. If you want a copy of my contract, give a "yell" although it is very much like one that was shared awhile ago online.

It won't last 1000 years but there are a lot of fun applications. I bought it in Micheal's in Canada, this is a big chain of hobby/craft supplies on both sides of the border. I don't know where that would leave you but you could write them. The stuff comes in 45 different colours in 2 oz. bottles and it sample kits of 8 colours in tiny 5ml. containers. It is called Delta CeramDecor PermEnamel Paint. They can be reached at PermEnamel Projects, Delta, 2550 Pellissier Place, Whittier, CA 90601 - 1505. If you end up having problems, just get in touch with me, I wouldn't mind shipping some off to you.

Hakko 60 watt, a bit cheaper and it has a 1000 degree tip. now the question is, why is the top one more expensive then the one that get's hotter? i guess it has something to do with the heat regulator but i'm not sure. i'll probably go with the higher wattage one, they both look like ceramic element irons. also how does the tip work? the screw on section looks like it's in the back of the iron. is the tip seperate from the heater unit? or is it one solid piece like the unger? i'll probably get it from delphi, or a local store depending on who can give the lowest price (since my first time buyer of the year certifacate expired a while ago). also why is the 60 w iron grounded, but the other iron is'nt? i never heard, really, of any iron needing to be grounded. ---Mike Savad -- Mike's Stained Glass http://www.geocities.com/Paris/1141 New Pages Added: - New Instructional Guides Added!!! - The Creative Process - How to Find Patterns for Suncatchers - Picking Out Glass in the Store - 5 New Pictures in the 3-D Catagory - 2 New Pictures in the Panel Catagory - Updated Shots of The Heart of Atlantis, and Japanese Garden ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Sat May 24 10:44:42 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Sat, 24 May 1997 10:43:52 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #7 built 1997-May-7) X-Path: nac.net!morn From: "M.

You can check with your local library to see if they have overhead projectors that you can check out. The libraries in my area used to do this, buy not any more. Also check with local craft stores to see if they carry projectors. I have seen them at a craft store here and they were only $19 or $29.99 ( I can't remember). Hope this helps.

I'm moving my stained glass stuff out of my woodshop into this spare room because of overcrouding in the woodshop...In the woodshop I would simply open the door and windows and turn a fan on when soldering...Now that I'm in the house with A/C bills and such would it be better to use some sort of recycling filter to clean the air or should I use exhaust vent fans?? I have 2 really good bath exhaust fans still in the boxes here I can use (not the el cheapo kind) but didnt know if I would be better with a filter of some sort.... I do use a filter in the den to keep dust from my birds to a minimum but I dont think it would be good enough to filter out lead/flux vapor... Thanks in advance!

I'm in Perth and guess what I just found a glass Manufacturer (!) round the corner in Kardinya called HiGlass who have the most *amazing supplies of glass for leadwork, slumping, fusing etc. Signing up for a course at the end of June. URL is http://www.wt.com.au/~rdeint/higlass.htm and some of those pictures are really neat! After that I think I'll be offering a small suncatcher as a workshop rather than a ful-blown 'how-to' course - feedback I've been getting from other sources and other craft media teachers indicates that the buying public is happy to pay for a 'short' project but unwilling to lay out for a lengthy course that will teach all the basics to enable them to do *whatever they want to. Some punters just need guidance I guess. Once again thanks for your help - I know who to call when I need up-to-date references! Would be intersted in the itinerary for Carolyn - is Perth a likelihood?

When soldering, I keep the door to the rest of the house closed. I have an Inland Fume trap that goes right next to the soldering iron, and a HEPA Air Filter by Holmes. The Holms filter is rated for a 16 x 20 room, so does fine with the 12 x 14 bedroom. Run on High when soldering, low or medium when doing other work. Also have a carpet remnant 8 x 10 over the floor work area, that gets replaced every other month. I get the remnants free, sometimes the color is rather wild :-) but it works by keeping glass slivers out of the rest of the house. I also carefully trap all the solder bits so they don't go into the rug. This keeps the A/C bill tolerable, and it is fairly comfortable to work in there. I solder in 20 -30 minute sessions, and then take a sit-down break in another room. The two birds I have are not allowed in the studio, nor would other pets or children be, if I had them. I am on a 'sit break' right now, messing with the computer. So, it is back to work.

I live in sunny southern Alberta, Lethbridge to be exact. I've been doing stained glass for several years now and have done everything from french doors to mosaic stepping stones. This winter I made 20 stones and designed most of my own patterns. Weather permitting, 10 will be installed into a patio that we're working on. I do most of my own designs and have one piece of art that I'm very proud of. I built a window for my dining room to hold a glass house where I keep my miniature crystals. When the sun hits it is incredibily spectacular. I work as a psychiatric nurse at a community mental health clinic and find glass to be an excellent stress reducer. Unfortunately, I have run out of exterior windows in my home but a few holes in the walls has solved that problem. This winter my husband finally finished my stained glass room and I have a great work space where I can get lost for hours. I very much appreciate your dedication to the art of stained glass and follow the net closely. If you get a minute, fill me in on your progress this winter. I'd love to hear from you. Sincerely, Lorna from Canada. ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass From owner-glass Mon May 26 21:08:29 1997 Return-Path: Received: by daver.bungi.com via smail with stdio id for rglass-42; Mon, 26 May 1997 21:07:54 -0700 (PDT) (Smail-3.2.0.94 1997-Apr-22 #7 built 1997-May-7) X-Path: aol.com!SUGR5 From: SUGR5@aol.com To: glass@bungi.com Subject: need out of print book Date: Tue, 27 May 1997 00:07:48 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <1997May26.20748.0> Reply-To: glass@bungi.com Precedence: bulk Hi All, I'm looking a pattern book called "Bears on Parade" published by CKE in 1987.

I removed the mirror back and centered it on my pattern. I surrounded the house with 7-2x3 bevels across the bottom and used 5-3 inch diagonal bevels along each side of the house. The house is capped with a bevel flower cluster and has 4-3 inch diagonal bevels which join into the side bevels. The rest of the window is made out of clear antique, barogue, and sparkelit and I have picked up the bevel patterns throughout. I did this one in lead. The total window measures 3.5x2 feet. I am sure that this is as clear as mud. I do have pictures and if you'd like one, please let me know. I also used mirror in my mosaic stepping stones. Out of Tiffany Stepping Stones, I used mirror to surround that marvelous sun. It turned out excellent. The mirror did not scratch and it catches the sun very nicely.

You should have the correct diameter circle drawn on you worktable. Then you tack solder on the outside, then solder the inside. I have always been told that no question is stupid, just a request for help. Elsie At 07:25 PM 5/29/97 +0000, you wrote: >Hi everyone, Well, no question is a stupid one.

Thanks for any help you can >give. I had a special rack made for my suncatchers that has worked rather well over the years. I used two sizes of lightweight galvanized conduit, had the corner pieces welded, so I had 90 degree angles with 3 legs coming out. I then slide the smaller size conduit into these and form a large box. Mine is 5 feet tall and usually about 3 feet wide, and 4 feet deep, but for different shows, I just used different lengths of conduit. I then cover the top and two sides with wire fencing, and use wire to hold this into place on the frame. I can then hang hundreds of suncatchers on the two ends, and I hang my larger pieces in the open spaces on the sides. I use S hooks to hang the suncatchers and just wire the larger pieces on. I even can hang some pieces from the wire across the top. This has proved very versatile, and when taken apart, the biggest piece is the rolled up fencing. I have spray painted mine gold to give it a little class. My other display was a flea market find. It was originally a small plant stand with removable shelves, (all wire, not pressed metal), and the sides folded in to make it travel flat. It has three shelves that are at different levels. I used to make lots of pressed flower suncatchers and hang them from the bottom of the wire shelves, with a light positioned behind them. This was a show stopping attraction, the light shining through all those bevels! I always put that on the isle or on the corner if I had a corner booth. You have to make sure to lay carpet or something over the cord to your light source! If you are interested in my displays, I can send you a drawing. Please let me know. And happy crafting!

I am back again.... Have done my tax return (phew!); am on the tail-end of my computer course and am in the middle of recovering from constipation due to over-eating for a whole week (it was my birthday yesterday.... and I have one dinner-invitation after another...) Chandeliers - hmm well, I brought one back from Sweden some years ago left to me by my dearly departed Papa (and left to him by HIS Papa, who had been left it by HIS..... and so on); it had about 250 crystal pieces in it, I wrapped them all up individually in toilet paper and then the whole "shebang" in one of his old bath robes and planted it onto the front passenger seat of my car. When I arrived at Customs in UK and they asked me what was in the front seat, I answered totally honestly "An 18th Century Crystal chandelier, Officer" - they didn't believe me !!!! With the result that I got it into UK and sold it through Christies Auction Rooms a while later. In total it measured about 3 feet from top to bottom. Had I even attempted to install it in my low-slung cottage in UK (where everyone taller than 5'10" would have to "duck" to avoid hitting the top of the door beams), it would have brought my ceiling down with a crash through the sheer weight of the beast....... Peacocks.... now that IS a different matter! I have used both jewels and circles I have cut out within the same panel. Have a look on my WEB-page for 2 rather large and magnificent beasts, spread over 4 panels. I am currently also supervising one of my students who is making another peacock (on a much smaller scale). I used excatly the same technique that Mike Savad suggested and it worked fine with me. Go for it, says I...!!! Good Luck! Let me know if I can help!

I have had rather a "plate-ful" these last 2 weeks. YES, I have several of the Isenberg books.... Can I help??? You are right about questionning them. Nevertheless, yes, they are a "product of their time" and valid on that score. I have used them as back-ground material in my own teaching, as the enthusiasm DOES come across to beginners who still struggle with trying to cut ANY shape out of a sheet of clear "greenhouse glass". It's interesting that you should echo "across the Pond" what I have felt so very much about the 60's over here. I went to Cambridge the other day and spent an hour or so on my knees "rummaging" in the largets art book shop there for further reading materials in stained glass. (.... and oh YES, the inevitable Ed Sibbett Jr. book on Victorian stained glass was there...... :-( ). There ARE one or two NEW books written and published over here, one by Sarah Brown ( who is a senior member of the British Society of Master Glass Painters). But the whole thing is, whatever is written and published NOW seem to be poor "echoes" of previous authoritative books - in particular THE one I have mentioned so many times before "Stained Glass" by Lawrence Lee, George Seddon, Francis Stephens. This book to me, will remain the most authoritative modern "Bible" for stained glass. For medevial history, you just cannot beat Theophilus "On Divers Arts". my 2 cents worth......

Several of the stores, though, had very recent publications by Lynnette Wrigley and Marc Gerstein that IMNSHO were very good especially for beginners and especially dealing with copper foil. What impressed me most was the quality of the photography and of the designs -- even the suncatchers were quite nice.( Elisabeth, I think these folks are working in the UK - have you heard of them?)

The suncatchers were hung with fishing line. The doors of the cabinet were made out of bevels and clear glass. The only problem with this display was the difficulty moving it, as it was the size of the Incredible Hulk.

Yes, I always use chain for my larger pieces, anything that's larger than about 8-10", but you know the bread and butter stuff, the small suncatchers... do you sell these without anything to hang them then? Around here they always seem to come with fish line attached for hanging. I'd love to not have them on fish line, just use hooks (or safety pins)...much easier for transport and display, but don't people want the line???? or is this just somehow the norm in my area.

Our trip to Warner-Crivellaro was toooooo good!! Robert Oddy in person is astounding, the guy has no idea how brilliant he is. Marianne and Charles welcomed us like we were friends coming over to their house. They had cakes and bagels and fruit! Angelo was totally entertaining, but that's a whole 'nother story. Christie is going to write up a real organized article, but it's going to take longer than a minute to do that, so in the meantime, my meanderings are going to have to do. Mr. Oddy brought along his serpent panel. If you go over to his web page and take a look to refresh your memory, some of this will probably make more sense. The bark edges have been sealed and saturated with Elmer's glue. The back has been trimmed flat and flat board has been put behind it with the edge routed out to create the U-shaped frame needed to hold the glass. When you have multiple layers of glass, standard framing rarely does the job! Looking at the panel straight on with light behind it, one has the sense that it is flat with some sort of mystical depth built in. Getting close, one can see the multiple layers that make up the piece. There is no area in the panel that has more than three layers, however. The leaves on the tree are on top and behind. The shadow on the serpant's body is layers of glass. The bark on the tree is pieces that do not lay flat but are slightly raised off one plane to create depth. Angelo called it faceted. Mr. Oddy called it "ragtime!" Why to use layers? ...to bleed out a lead line. When you see a lead line in his or Tiffany's work that is not hard, it is because it is behind another layer of glass which softens the line. ...add shading and shadow. See above about serpent's body. ...to mix colors. Looking for just the right green and can't find it? Try putting one color over another to vary the shade. ...superimposing an image. If you want one image to float on another one, try layers. ...sculptural effects. By shading an object with layers of glass, you can give it dimension. Some of the problems you are going to need to cope with: ...starting with a completely designed piece is virtually impossible. Start with the main image and build out from there. ...moisture build up between layers. ...layers on top of each other must be cut very accurately. ...foil on back pieces needs to be thinner than top layer. ...everything must be spotlessly clean and dry before assembly. ...flux and lead spitting between layers. ...the piece will not lay flat on the table, so you have to watch bowing. ...the weight of the different layers is not carried directly thru the piece and support will have to be provided. ...framing is a problem. ...interior patina needs to be applied while the surface is still exposed as after it is buried it will be impossible to get to. ...the back is going to be ugly if you are used to a nice beaded back. Speaking of beading, don't. Not until all the layers are assembled. Otherwise the layers are not going to lay flat on one another. I can't say too much about Mr. Oddy and the folks at W-C. They were all incredible. And he will be back. I trust I am not talking out of line, but since they announced it today, I'll take the ball and run. The weekend of Aug 23-24, W-C is having an expo to make up for all of us who weren't allowed into the Baltimore show. They are getting all the manufacturers to come and show us their new stuff and glass. They are also going to get artists to come and show their stuff and Mr. Oddy is on that list. If Angelo has anything to say about it there will be a hot air balloon. If Charles' voice of reason prevails, there won't be. Details will be announced and posted here and on the W-C website. http://www.warner-criv.com/ Angelo is going to be on Ricki Lake. Ask him about the story. I've already heard it 7 times!;-} And last but not least, bungi.com was well represented and it was great to have faces to go with names. There wasn't one stinker in the bunch! Lucille won the longest distance traveled prize (110 miles)! And there were several people there who didn't know about the list but took the address to sign up! I'm out of breath. Someone else who was there best take over. Take care, Hilary p.s. no one asked how to clean the panel. ---- For subscription changes, please mail to: glass-request@bungi.com To send to the list, please mail to: glass@bungi.com Archives available at http://www.bungi.com/glass
