Hi, I have found your site a while ago and am on your e-mail list
(thank goodness) for postings. It has been wonderful. I do have a
slight problem though. I had been using my daughters great computer
and she has brought it back to school with her. I am now back to my
old thing that basically only gets e-mail - it takes forever to get
on the web and most times I do not have success. Would you mind
posting my question onto the site since I cannot. I am glad that I
will be able to get responses from my e-mail though. Thanks in
advance. L
I am a glass fuser specializing in dichroic glass. I had been
having some success trying to get a very sheer appearance to some of
my glass - I fused onto a dark glass background. Depending on what
sheet I use it sometimes works , but many times I end up with the
glass not being transparent and looking exactly the same as when I
placed it on the other pieces. I read an article recently about
using a torch to stretch the dichroic glass over already fused stones
in order to achieve a very vieled look to that piece of glass. ( I
tried contacting the author had no success). As I do set my work in
silver I used an acetyline torch and was wondering if I could try it
with that. I am somewhat afraid though of the glass shattering on me
when I torch it ( either the stone or the glass piece). I am not
sure how I would attempt this. Is this the only way to achieve this
type of result? Any suggestions? Thanks, Elle
