Product Description

Protect your eyes without compromising your color perception.
Phillips Boroscope safety glasses are designed especially for working in the hotter flame needed for borosilicate glass. Now in stylish, more comfortable frames.

The Phillips Maxx is a lightweight, wrap-around plastic sun glass style frame. They are perfect for wearing for long periods of time, especially in front of audience. The Philips Maxx most applealing attribute is how it's designed to hug the contour of your face blocking light from all angles.

Boroscope Shade 3.0 Lenses - Phillips Boroscopes are designed to meet the need for the extra UV and IR protection needed when working on borosilicate glass. This product is greatly lighter than conventional laminated products and comes in a full coverage lens which this is a higher quality design because there are no areas without shading. Boroscopes should be worn when working on hard glass types where regular didymium or Phillips202/ACE are not adequate due to the fact of insufficient filtration of ultra violet and infra-red absorption. Green #3 shade are dark enough to protect your eyes, but not as dark as some safety glasses. Also available in a #5 shade, depending on your preference. Both offer excellent protection.

Pros : perfect fit perfect color perfect eye protection
Cons : None that I've found except my cheeks are a little large for these sweet glasses. I'll I did to fix this was add two nose pads. Doing this brought the frame up just enough to lift off my cheeks.
Other Thoughts : I love these safety glasses, now I can melt boro in style :). My eyes are not bothered at all now that I have the correct type of safety glasses and the shade 3 have been plenty of protection. I feel if they were any darker I wouldn't like them, but if my eyes do start to feel like sand paper I could put my clip ons over these. I don't see this ever being a problem but just thought I'd mention it. Bottom line - love them!

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

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.
