I too was trying to check out art glass on the net and saw only fused. I work mostly in foil leaded, have worked in came but like the foil better. I like to pick out my pieces to flow glass in person instead of from the net so I can plan the different shading into the design. I hope I won't have to go to far for supplies. I probably won't be down untill 2012 the way the realestate market is going but will have my glass grinder in tow when I do. I will teach you foil (If you don't know how already) if you will teach me flame.
