Eye Candies's Profile

Bio

I've been a stained glass artist since 1980, working on commission. Now that I've had to close my "business" due to cancer, I create glass panels and fuse glass because it makes me feel better!

Uroboros green, red-orange, pumpkin with brown highlights

Item# U60-38

Outstanding colors!, August 13, 2011 4 stars

Pros
The colors in the piece I received were gorgeous--once I looked at it I revised my design to take advantage of a particular area within the glass and ended up with a really pretty slope of grass with golds, red-oranges and deep greens. I'm not disappointed.

Cons
Not easy as butter to cut.

Other Thoughts
I'll find a use for the rest of the glass, which has bright oranges, lemon yellows, greens on white background. The color description doesn't do this glass justice.

Studio Pro 1/2" Breaking Pliers

Don't use worn out tools, July 27, 2011 5 stars

Pros
I hadn't changed my breaking pliers since I started working with glass, back in 1980. After 41 years the biting edges were round and they gummed the glass to death. The new pliers, which look and feel exactly like the old ones, break the glass cleanly and on the scoring line. What a joy!

Cons
None

3/4" Fine Glastar Grinder Bit

Item# 30307

Fine grit works beautifully, July 25, 2011 5 stars

Pros
I can't believe I waited this long (at least 10 years) to replace my old Glastar grinder head. This new one is fast, and doesn't take chips out of the glass.

Cons
none

Spectrum Grape & White Wispy Iridized

Item# SI84392

Not at all like pictured, July 12, 2011 3 stars

Pros
It's Spectrum. It will cut like butter.

Cons
Not at all like it's pictured. The glass I received was very dark when no light was behind it; not usable for my project.

When the glass arrived it was like someone had shipped a section of clouds to me. The glass is 96 coe and will fuse beautifully with a solid color 96 coe.
