ty very much misha and thx for getting me on this nice forum bet i am gonna spend lots of hours in here ..hope to make new freinds and meet alot of good peeps in here .. is there a chat to this forum as well like web chat or somthing
Sure thing, no problem! I'm glad to have you here. One of my good friends lives out in Denmark, but he doesn't blow glass or I'd introduce you two. I'm sure there are people around you though.
We don't have a chat installed right now. We always had one before but it seems no one used it so I let it go. It's something we can always put back anytime if people have a desire to use it again. I do miss the chats. :)

Welcome Dan! Come back and torch anytime. I got you on the silver too.

Hi, my name is Gwynne. I will probably be hanging out in the Safety Break room a lot. I started blowing glass in 1997, worked full time for a few years, took a 7 year break, and have been back at it for 5 years. I've been lurking for a number of years now, so I feel like I know some of you.
This may or may not apply...but.....WELCOME TO THE POT! It's good to have you!
