Glass supplies

Postby jennie on Fri Sep 12, 2008 1:02 pm

Here is the website for Delphi Glass. They are a good, comprehensive site for all sorts of glass-making needs from the glass itself, to tools, to jewelry findings.

The bails that I use for fused glass are made by a company called Aanraku. I often have luck finding them on ebay for a lot less $$ than other places.

I just spoke with my mom today and she told me that the shop they sometimes get stained glass supplies from now carries fusible glass as well. It's called The Glass Place and it's out past South Hills Village. I called - and sure enough, they carry both 90 and 96 COE glass, as well as frit, stringers and the like. Their website is www.theglassplace.com. It doesn't have much info, but it has hours and directions listed.

Just thought I'd share!

Thank you for posting that! It is good to know that there is a local place to get the supplies. Seems like a fun field trip...and a great way to save on the super high shipping charges!
