Hi,
Here is my second attempt using glass in a bowl.
The first time I used regular 1/4" plate glass, it cracked.. I had over 20 hours in it. I learned my lesson, this time it's still 1/4" plate but with stainless wire.
The bowl is made from Padauk (Asian), it measures 17" x 20" x 4" deep...
Hi guys,
I'm looking for a place to buy glass for picture frames. This weekend we had some portraits done of our 3 month old daughter. Grandparents will be getting these as gifts this Christmas. I have some walnut and maple that is begging to be used. I made a walnut frame yesterday as a...
I need some heavily rippled, 1/2" thick coloured glass. sizes approx 4" x 70" and 27" x 43". looking around the web it seems as though I'll need to get this specially made. Do any of you out there know of a speciality glass supplier in the area, or at least within a resonable distance?
TIA
I'm finishing up a set of barrister bookcases. I did plate glass in my last set of cases (oak) and it's ok. This set is walnut and it is looking pretty nice, so I'm thinking about spending the extra $$$ for beveled glass. Any idea where to get this made in the Raleigh area?
TIA,
Chris
Does anyone know of a good place around Charlotte to get some smoked glass for a TV stand I have been asked to make? I will need the glass cut to size and drilled for the overlay hinges.
Thanks!

OK, so I got an idea for a shadow box for displaying my oldest son's Cub Scout badges, etc. I know what I want to make and what to make it of, but I have never used glass in a project before and don't know what size router bit to use or if a tablesaw blade width would give me enough "play". What...
I have been asked to build a curio cabinet in a custom size and it needs to have some tempered glass in it. I would like to know if anyone knows of a source in the Charlotte - Hickory area (or reasonably close to there) where I could get custom sized tempered glass. I have checked on the...

Do any of you know were I can get some little rubber or similar pads to go between the table frame and the glass top? We have a table in the office here that has some pads that have a small "spigot" on the bottom that fits into a small hole in the table frame and then has what looks like one of...
Part of my kitchen project includes a 12 x 12 wall cabinet, open on the front that will have about 9 to 12 wine bottles at the top followed by a shelf with wine glasses hanging down and lastly a plate rack. I know there is an easy way to make the rack for the glasses but it escapes me. Does...
When we got married,we thought we would find a nice antique cupboard for our china. With 5 $100 bills in hand, off we went to Metrolina Expo, only to be sorely dissapointed.
With some discussion, the new Mrs. agreed to let me buy a table saw and try my best. As you can see, it was a big...
Anyone have any recommendations on where to buy (or have made) real stained glass inserts for skeleton door frames or know a company near Raleigh that would make the complete door with the insert?
I need a 2-8 x 6-8 interior door preferrably out of mahogany with a full stained glass insert...
I have need to find a source for some glass for flag cases. The person I'm making the cases for has requested uv glass to prevent the flags from fading; I've been unable to find a source for this type of glass in a small quantity. I'll probably buy enough glass for around 12 cases, so it's a...
