Thanks Scott.
Got a mail into WidgetWorks now, asking about bit compression distance. I seem to remember it was .5" and that might help me out in my case vs. Taig Sherlines .315".
Appreciate it--Did you get a 90 or 120 degree bit?

Thanks Scott,
Would probably go 3/8 or 1/2" shank. Got a guy in Scotland that's going to do a trial 2X3" from an .eps I sent him, just to see glass---He has a UK version. He says the noise on glass freaked him out and he expected any minute for it to shatter, BUT it never did:)
You're NOT going to try edge lit acrylic!!:)
LOL. The edge lit acrylic thing grabbed me for about 5 seconds and then it passed. :D
I'm headed toward big, honkin ornate stuff. Victorian, mostly. That's what I like, and everything I make is so that I can learn the skills necessary to make the things that swirl in my head.
I never thought I'd be able to do it, but Brady put me onto a couple books that have helped dramatically. Plus I study for at least 3 hours every morning. Yesterday I started looking at Codice Atlantico just to get some genuine period inspiration.
I keep stuffing in information and my ideas get grander. :)
If I slow down to edge-light acrylic, I might end up dying without doing what I really want to do. ;)
