Grinders are pretty easy to use - you need to add water (and grinder motor oil) to the well underneath your worktop, wet your sponge (which should come with it), place it into the cubby behind your grinder bit and voila! You can grind glass!

I didn't know if we were allowed to post Youtube.com links, but if you go there and put "grinder/stained glass" into the search, you will find a few little videos showing how to use your grinder!

Good luck and have fun - it's really easy!

Great tip Platebreaker!(LOVE your name!!!)

Thank you, Platebreaker! I did just what you suggested and spent a half an hour looking at various stained glass videos. Fun. Great idea!

Ok, I'm brand new - as of today - to this forum and am wondering if any of you fuse glass. I've been reading your posts for the past hour and it appears to be mainly a mosaic forum but I thought I'd give it a try.

I am going to be buying a kiln soon and also glass and wondered if there were any suggestions. Also, would you recommend glass that has a coe of 90 or 96? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Love this forum! Thanks!

MM Quite Contrary, WELCOME! We do have a few glass fusers here and I love looking at it, so please do share and we can all learn together.
