Using “stained glass” glass

[DZap]

I feel your pain.  I was so excited about using up my stained glass stash for fusing projects . . . until I learned the truth that not all glass is created equal.  They look pretty.  If you can’t get the devit to fire polish out, blast them and make them appear like sea glass with a frosted haze all over.  I threw mine into a rock polisher (my pre-sandblasting cabinet days) and they turned out pretty.  They were small pieces so not too worried about them breaking due to stress and I then used them up as mosaic items.  Figured if they didn’t break in the polisher then I was probably okay.
