Thank you for this, displaying a piece makes the difference between artist and hobbyist.

[@AnnetteRintelmann]

Love your glass pieces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love your videos, Lisa! These are all wonderful ideas but I especially like the wavy mold. I have a Skutt firebox 14 and I'm wondering if you know where I can purchase a small wavy mold similar to your large one.

[@chrisp7548]

These ideas are so clever! I am so glad you shared them! Thank you!!

Love the use of the fiber board - I will definitely try this! TFS!

[@JudithMcFadden]

great ideas.

[@craftingshadows6844]

while I don't work with glass myself, your work is really interesting and I learned a lot

[@emem009]

Thank you for such great info

Great info Lisa, thanks

I’m always searching for ways to use glass to display glass. These are all great ideas! What is the wavy mold made of? Thank you so much for sharing 😊

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

The wavy mold is made of stainless steel, I've had it for years!

[@dianachapman8430]

You said you glued the bases to the glass art but then how do you hang it on the wall ?

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

If it is a piece I want to hang on the wall I'll use E6000 glue and a saw tooth hanger. Simply glue the sides of the hanger onto the glass where you want it and let it dry.

[@judithae7381]

Thanks , I truly appreciate your suggestions, as the presentation of glass, whether standing or hung is an issue. Do you use epoxy glue? Silicon?

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

I use E6000 glue, it works great and is clear so its unnoticeable. :)

[@SuzanneHunt-v3c]

Hi Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I wondered if you could answer a quick question. What glue do you use to fix the two together as there must be quite a strain on the pieces on the wall? Appreciate your advise. Thanks Suzanne

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

Hi, thanks for commenting! I use E6000, works great and is clear so its unnoticeable.

[@queenbrooksie]

Nice video. What glue do you prefer to use?

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

I use E6000, works great and is clear so its unnoticeable.

[@ElizabethArdinger]

After you adhere the wave to your art...for mounting on the wall...I still don't understand what you use to hang the piece?

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

I added a saw tooth hanger to the back with E6000 glue :)

[@ElizabethArdinger]

@@LisaVogtglassartist Thank you

[@PattyCunninghamPA]

Lisa, how do you cut the fiberboard that you slumped the base over? Does a regular hack or hand saw do it? (I am reluctant to get a power saw. Not enough room.)

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

I used a single edge razor blade or sheet rock knife/carpet knife :)

[@PattyCunninghamPA]

@@LisaVogtglassartist thank you!

[@kaymcconnell4221]

Lisa, please tell us the item number of what you call the 'barrel mold'. Thank you in advance.

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

artglasssupplies.com/bullseye-glass-mold-8734-ball-surface-11.4 This is similar to it but you can find a multitude of molds on the bullseye website.

[@susandees474]

Do you have to fire the steel roofing material before you use it?

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

yes, to burn off the oil and season it so the primer sticks better.

[@susandees474]

@@LisaVogtglassartist... at what temperature and for how long? MIne has rust on it. Do I have to sand that off first? or will it burn off in the kiln

[@LisaVogtglassartist]

@@susandees474 With rust it's best to sand it off first so it doesn't stick to or ruin your glass and for seasoning a steel mold you bring it up to 1365F :)
