I still want a website with piccies though, ....

Me too! I have never ordered any P& T glass because I know so little about it, and the website is extremely offputting. I like to see colours before I buy.

BTW - what is "SIS"?

I'm hoping to get a loverly big box like that in the next few days

Finally got round to emailing them about asking for a sample pack - yup, they'll bring one to the Flame Off for me to buy.

Barbara also says that she will be bringing some shorts and some of their own glass. Heads-up, anyone curious!

I visited P & T today and got a lovely bundle of tubing to play with! Had a bit of a tour round the warehouse too, kinda! I love the smell of furnace glass batching!

I learnt beadmaking there 6 years ago so it was great to go back and check it out again.

Glad you had a good day Rachel - I do envy you the guided tour!

Tubing.....mmmmm...P&T very kindly sent me samples of their coloured soda tubing....I am hoping to pick up a few pointers at the Flame Off so I know what to do with it!

Flyingcheesetoastie · March 18, 2010, 10:02:40 PM

You heat it up and do stufff to it! i dunno what I'm gonna do with it either really but I know I can play with it with my HH so am gonna have a go!

It wasn't really a guided tour as much as a me now knowing what I wanted so asking to see what they had!

Hi

I use their glass all the time the 93 coe and it fits perfectly with Bullseye. I teach using the P& T glass
and all my students love it.

My two cents worth!

You have got me thinking now must go and have a play with it
