Title: Bring forth your grotty glass.......
Post by: Redhotsal on November 16, 2010, 10:26:50 AM
....and I will gladly take it for swaps or cash!

To clarify - I had a batch of really manky clear 004 which I couldn't use for beadmaking so I've decided to make myself a chandelier. The 004 looks great as dangles - even the spitty scummy bits look deliberate. :o :D
However, I've actually, incredibly, got through my batch and the chandelier isn't even half way finished. Reckon I need about three kilos!

So, if you have a load of clear you dont' want I will be happy to take it off your hands - I can pay a bit of dosh or perhaps swap something. Lemme know

Cheers people  :D

Sal

Will have a look, sure I've got some really fat rods of clear which is useless on HH as it takes for ever to melt.

I have about 1.5kg of scummy clear - it's a mix between effetre 004 and vetrofond crystal clear (I think - might even be a few 006 in there, but as I'm not quite sure the whole lot is just lying there, waitning to be turned into a splendid chandelier....  ;D)

Let me know if you want the whole lot, or part of it, or none at all (they are not labelled).

Just wanted to say THANKS! to everyone.

I'm awash with clear!

I'll melt the heck out of it and show you all what monstrosity of a chandelier I've created soon one day.
Not sure how long this will take though. But thanks for sending me your glass!
