  •   Functional but Small
By on
Pros : This Fireworks Heat Resistant Work Surface is a bit smaller that I thought it would be, but then again, how much protection under the torch do I really need? I'm a newbie and still jump when I thermal-shock a rod or bead. This work surface catches most of what flies off my mandrel. The work surface DOES prevent burns to the table underneath when I remember to put the hot tools and/or glass upon it's textured metal surface rather than on the table itself. I learned THAT the hard way! The metal is some kind of steel/stainless steel and my magnetic metal canisters stick to it nicely. It is also VERY easy to clean. I pick it up, carry it to the garbage and everything just slides off the surface into the trash.
Cons : It is a thin sheet of metal over some kind of cardboard, it seems somewhat flimsy. I have managed to crease it somewhat by attaching my torch to it and the tabletop with a C-clamp. It doesn't lie perfectly flat now and sometimes short glass rods and my tools roll underneath the edge and have to be fishes out. It is small in size but I adjust by sliding off-center from my torch and more to the right to accommodate all of the right-hand action (and to make sure I don't put hot things ON the table).
Other Thoughts : Not a bad buy if you can get it on sale, BOGO or otherwise.

When and how did you get started in stained glass? Ive been interested in stained glass for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would sit in churches and watch the (often) biblical depictions come to life when a stray ray of sunlight cast its illumination our way. Sun shadows dancing. I dabbled in many media over the years, trying to find an outlet for some of the visions careening inside, but none of them took. Drawing, painting - even watercolours - no amount of professional training could guide my hand in a satisfactory way. But then there was the glass. I lived abroad for a few years, and wound my way through Europe on my way back to the States when I finished my Peace Corps Service. My last international destination was Paris, where one of my closest friends lives as an organist. Two beautiful autumn

4 Ways to Stop Procrastinating Today
Apr 30, 2010
Chances are, right now, in reading this blog post, youre avoiding an overdue task. I too was avoiding a laundry list of work-related tasks in writing this. Procrastination is a part of life, and its certainly always been a part of mine. As a teenager, my parents would accuse me of putting off everything from piano practice to math homework. Id vehemently deny their charges hissing back, I work better under pressure. The truth was, I often felt overwhelmed, under-productive and anxious. Over the years, Ive been able to combat my avoidance issues using 4 tools. The trick is constantly reminding myself of these actions, because they do not come naturally to me. 1. Just Say No. I say yes to everything. Need someone to head up that event? Sure. Want me to design 12 posters for the Car Wash? No problem. Take your kid to daycare? Of course.
