Coming Posts and some of what I want this to become......

I know it's been a while since I've made any posts to the blog. Not easy going through law school and doing glass projects... And since this blog is rather new, I haven't really been sure what direction to take it in...  I do know I will probably show the "how to" bits... I also would like to explain various terms in kiln formed glass, stained glass etc... Maybe highlight techniques etc.... So please bare with me on this.
In a sense I am letting the blog determine what it wants to be... As time goes by it will definitely take shape and have better form.

I do know that I will be posting blogs shortly on the following topics:
  1.  Creating molds for lost wax method glass casting.....
  2. A "how to" on creating glass paper weights using compatible glass scrap chunks and a plaster mold made from the lost wax method.
  3. How to make fused glass pendants using dichroic glass....
  4. How to make paper weights using large globe light bulbs and 90 COE glass frit and chunks of 90 COE glass scraps......
Also, April is Michigan Glass Month.... If you live in Michigan, please make sure to check back for a post of events around the greater Detroit area celebrating the glass art......

See you soon....
