Please log in for more thread options As with any glue job, you want the surfaces very clean?
They will be very clean.
Are the pieces to be glued flat (stacked) or edge to edge (like
folded
paper)?
Edge to edge.
Is the result to be viewed through the glue lines or across them?
Across some of them and through others.
Is the glass opaque (opal, etc.) or transparent?
Transparent.
Is this the shade or the base?
Base.
Is the glass to be glued to something, like a bottle, or be a
structure on
its own?
Structure of its own.
So, any suggestions for the type of adhesive and preparation of the
glass itself?
Thanks
