I first started working with glass as an artistic medium in 1999. Since then I have been fortunate enough to work with some the best lampworkers in the world.

Some pictures from a workshop I did with Harold Eberhart at his studio in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I would encourage anyone who is interested in working with pyrex glass to take a class from Harold. He is, without a doubt, one of the best teachers out there!

I have been using flower frogs for years to put neat imploded designs in glass. The only problem with using the flower frogs was that they were almost always made with a lead base. When I first started using flower frogs with lead bases I ran into several problems: The glass tended to stick into the frogs i was using . Also the heat would transfer from the glass, through the brass pins, and melt the lead base. After reading about the effects of lead inhalation I decided I needed to figure out a way to make a flower frog that the beginner glass artist could use. I tried using welded stainless steel ones, but the pins that came with those were too small and stuck to the glass easily. After putting the project on the backburner a few months i finally found a graphite machining company that was willing to help me develop a prototype model: Weaver Industries: I highly recommend them to anyone who needs anything graphite!
