Scalloper video on YouTube

Post by Sarah King »

In case anyone is interested, I made a video on scalloping glass that you can see at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGKeRdIUg-I

Danny suggested that I post the link here. Most folks on this site already know how to do this but I thought you might like to see it anyway. Danny sells scallopers and also makes them for AngelGilding.com.

Thank you so much. Learning all these techniques about glass without actually seeing a demo can be a pain. This helps a lot.

Thanks for the great comments and reviews! We certainly can ship door to door by to the UK by US Priority Mail and I bet Danny would be glad to too.

Thanks for doing that, Sarah. It should cut down on the frustration level next time I use mine. That is if my mind can remember it's available. ;)
Besides that, it is great to hear your voice again.
I believe there is no shame in failure. Rather, the shame lies in the loss of all the things that might have been, but for the fear of failure.

How do you silver a scalloped glass plate wit the pooring method?
I can imagine the water tension break down in the scaloped edge...
