SATURN'S DAY SCHLITZ BLOGGING
the 1 panel shade i built. kathy was gone, not sure michele the boss had any idea how. so i had to figure out this on my own. i KNOW why tiffany stopped building them like this. unstable. just a bitch. but my fault, i thought i could attach the wire wile still on the block. no, bad idea, the wire moved the shade and started to twist it as soon as it was off. i quickly set it on the table and unattached the wire. i think i did that. or it was extra solder on the wire. the dome system much better than panels. i cut the dark blue too, ACTUALLY i cut 2 back grounds almost. had about 3 sections done of a different glass when the boss pointed out how ugly it was unlit. EEEW. i did some of the teal and amber glass too. was a special order that FINALLY was finished. think it had been around for years, waiting for the last bits. i did pretty good i think. turned out nice. and yeas, i saved the glass that didn't get used. had that happen again. saved the glass.
