Posted in events | No Comments » Glass flower construction Thursday, January 28th, 2010 Glass flowers start from 18×18″ pieces of flat borosilicate glass.  The glass is scored with a glass cutter in a grid (across and down) to make an x/y array of smaller squares. Cutting running pliars break the glass along the scored lines.  Individual squares are broken apart by hand. The final result:  when everything goes well, a stack of glass squares used to make petals for flowers.  When things don’t go well, a stack of glass squares and a stack of odd shaped waste pieces where the glass didn’t break evenly.
