[Cob] Easiest way to install a plate window?Dulane silkworm at spiderhollow.comThu Jul 5 17:51:16 CDT 2007
I have two beautiful glass plates I want to use for a window. I've used a couple of colored glasses made into sealed tubes so far...with good outcome, but I'm unsure how to approach the plates. They are both carnival type glass, and one is blue, one is clear. I envision just cobbing the larger one in first, and then gradually trying to smooth the inside of the cob and clean up everything while I try to get the second smaller window embedded on the inside. I haven't figured out how to make a semi-permanent tube for my 2-plate window. Anyone have any suggestions? It seems like it should be a two step process...with the inner part of the window 'tube' being allowed to dry somewhat first. (I'm doing the 2 plates for the insulative factor.) Thanks!
