    Gene:

    I love the pics, but how about some more details as to how this thing was built?

    How do you get these kinds of jobs? Are you the secret southern division of Sterling Surfaces?

    Thanks,

    Joe

    Yes, its vetrazzo..it doesnt get too hot..but its not a bench...you'll hit ur head on the chimney..but you can sit on it...the chimmney houses two tvs...thanks John and yes its a pricey butt warmer...Joe thanks but its just a box with CT materail wrapped around it..not much to explain...have the fireflamer pop up thru the bottom like a faucet and pour in 5 yards of glass...simple...I am gonna do thsi other one with blue glass it'll look much wilder...cant wait

    If you want to know how to sell jobs like this..just put ur business cards in expensive mental instituions or ask the counselors if you can put your glossies in their graduation enevelope...and then sell them what they want...very simple

    Amazing stuff Gene! I like how you can see it in both rooms. I am intrigued to find out more about this glass product. Haven't seen much here in Aus.
