36. It can be expensive
Mon Sep 1, 2014, 02:11 PM

but if you check garage sales and the craigslist type of sites you can find some very good deals. That's where I got most of my tools including grinder, different cutters and other tools, lots of glass and patterns. Lots of people start up, buy all the equipment and it sits unused in their basement until they downsize.

And then there's this place which to be honest I haven't ordered from, but if I needed something I would give them a try.

That piece is beautiful, I'd love to see it up close to see how the artist did the lettering.

Lovely, in spite of the rain, OS. elleng Aug 2014 #1
