FH is open to anyone, anywhere who is interested in glass in any form. But you'll find that we discuss all sorts of things – so pull up a chair, make yourself a cup of tea and have a good read.


Please be friendly and courteous at all times as you would with friends you see in person. We have some young members so choose your words carefully. And please introduce yourself before you ask questions or show us your work.


We are a networking and social community – there are opportunities for our members to advertise to each other but we are likely to get grumpy with anyone who joins us just to advertise. There are advertising guidelines so please check them out before you post an advert. If you don't comply we will remove your post.


Please be nice when commenting on someone's work – if you want to offer criticism please make sure that it's constructive. And remember that we have lots of newbies and hobbyists who need encouragement as well as our experienced professional artists.


Please search the forum or our wiki before asking any questions. We're a very helpful bunch but we're likely to get tired of answering your questions if you haven't done your research.  If someone helps you with information please say thank you – most of us are British and that's what we expect.


We will not tolerate racism, sexism, homophobia or any other bigotry or discrimination. If you want to do that please go somewhere else. If you do it here we will delete your account and you won't be welcome here again.


And we don't like personal vendettas or arguments – please keep them off the forum. There is a part of the forum for ranting and venting if you feel the need so please head there if you need to let off steam.  But play nicely – we will let you know if we think you've overstepped the mark.


We actively moderate our forum. One of our admin or mod team is usual close by in our virtual world. If you have any queries then send a message to an admin or mod – we don't bite!

Thank you

FH admin & mod team
