Stained Glass - Glass Making

Glass Making - Modern glass making is an extremely refined process. Glass is made basically from silica sand, limestone and soda ash. The mixture is put into a glass furnace and heated to approximately 3000° F, until the raw materials melt into a liquid which can be formed into glass sheets. To color the glass, various metal oxides are added to the raw materials during the glass making operation. These include selenium or gold for red, yellow and pink; cobalt for blue and sulphur for amber. The final price of the glass is most evident when purchasing hot colors (red, yellow, orange, pink) as gold and selenium are expensive ingredients.

MAKEFRIT - Frit Maker

Frit Maker

Heavy 3-1/2" dia. steel cylinder with 10" long plunger will easily make frit out of any glass! The unique chopping blade works quickly to pulverize compatible scrap glass and rods. Make as much frit as you want in any color you need! Use the sifter/sorter set (#4SIFT) to separate your various frit sizes. (We recommend wearing a dust mask when chopping glass.)
