Description

You will learn about the tools of the trade, such as the glass cutter, pliers and running pliers. As in any craft, knowing what tools to purchase and how to use them properly is essential. The class will cover the theory of “Why Glass Breaks?” holding the cutter, scoring the glass, breaking using pliers, breaking using running pliers, using a straight edge, cutting inside curves, outside curves, and ovals. You will go away with confidence. This class is for beginners as well as for those who need to enhance their cutting skills. The class focuses on the copper foil method of stained glass construction. During the class, students will complete the starter project using glass they select. You will complete a small stained glass window (approx. 9” X 14”). Several different patterns are available for you to choose from at the first class.

Must purchase a tool kit (class, kit & glass comes to about $400). Grinders and other specialty equipment provided for use in class. All tools and glass must be purchased from Allen Kenoyer Glass.

It’s a small group class around 6 people, the instructors let you choose your own pattern for the project. It’s pretty easy style like hummingbirds, ice cream or some desert view etc…. It’s pretty cute and fun, you also have to choose your own glasses that you can find in the store. I think the extra costs are the things I didn’t expect too much, actually the cost is much more than the class that the down side. Instructors are pretty professional and hand by hand to teach you, but I do hope they have more lamp projects in the future.
