Thanks to my good friend and fellow glass sign gilder John Studden for giving me the opportunity to recreate a complete set of reverse glass pieces for a wheel of fortune. It was a really fun project to do.
Thanks again John !

Re: Wheel of Fortune
Rod, I'd really be interested in how you cut the glass so nicely.
If you had another method than just a regular glass cutter.
Thanks for the compliment as well,
Jerry

Just a regular cutter. It would be a good project for a water jet cutter.

Re: Wheel of Fortune
Those turned out really nice! A man in your position has to be handy with either a quill or a glass scribe.
