    Ex custom framer here- frame glass like this is cheap and thin, it's not meant to be horizontal like this, it's incredibly dangerous. One wrong tweak and that is a guillotine. please consider acrylic. I honestly can't believe you continued this project with broken glass. I've been following you all for years but this is hands dish the most dangerous thing I've seen you show.

    These projects turned out so lovely, but I'm a little worried about the Saturn light. The vinyl may hold the glass for as long as you need it to, but with gravity pulling the ring downward, if that crack gets any worse, the glass could come crashing down on you, which would be terrible. I think working with acrylic would help you in every way while still maintaining that crystal clear effect.

Also, why would she show us the bottle of chemical glass etch and then use a vinyl sticker that didn’t line up. 😕 hopefully this can be a fix it video down the road.

    I bet the glass they used on the original "Saturn" lamp was made with thicker SAFETY Glass. It's much thicker and if it does damage...it breaks differently, than thin pannel/picture frame glass. Especially when you are hanging it above a seating area. I really hope that you'll never have to regret this dangerous choice of hanging an already broken/cracked glass plate. As the initial crack already got bigger between the cutting accident and hanging the lamp. Like many people have suggested: using plexiglass is much safer!!

    I took stained glass classes in college, so watching you guys play with cutting glass gives me mixed feelings. Mostly good feelings! I never thought I’d miss the sound! You definitely need to respect and fear the glass, it’s an unpredictable predictable mistress. But Becky, my dude, please don’t have that ring over your heads. I hope you took it down immediately after filming the reveal. The idea of it already made me anxious because I knew the inner circle had a 90% chance of not working and then the crack happened and I noped out loud.

    Becky, like everyone else here, I'd agree safety is paramount. I don't think using a non-tempered glass that is also cracked would be safe. Think about Danny 😂. Plexiglass or other non-glass materials might be better choices. I hope you could take heed of everyone's advice. Love the quilt tho! It's nice! If there's one thing I'd add, that'll be vertical lines on the map., so it'll look seamless with the original lines on the comforter.

    Honestly I loved the idea of the lamp, but i feel like you could do better on the result. It feels a bit unsafe with the glass just being held up by a few strips of tape, and besides, I think it would look better sitting a little bit lower on the globe (maybe also use plexiglas?). And the quilt I absolutely loveee, only thing I would add is the vertical stitching like you did on the horizontal lines. I do really like to see you bringing your ideas to life, and figuring out how to do so!

    I agree with a lot of the comments about the lamp being dangerous. I think plexiglass would be a much safer option that would probably look just as good as real glass. Considering how high it would hanging, I doubt it would be very obvious unless you were looking super close. I also think the ring could be slightly bigger so that it sits a little bit further down on the globe. It doesn't look quite right at the moment. Otherwise, the quilt was beautifully done and looks professional! Nice work :)

  • @oresamateru
    @oresamateruАй бұрын

    I think it would’ve been better if you opted for a tempered glass for the rings because its more tougher than your normal glass. But its more expensive lol. another reason i think the glass broke that easily was because of its thickness. Glass from gallery frames are way thinner than the glass used in windows and furniture, like the ones they use on coffee tables. Seeing the pendant reveal, i worry because there might be a possibility that the glass would suddenly break, especially that there’s already an existing crack and there’s nothing that securely fastened the rings onto the globe itself. I suggest to monitor the cracks cos looking at it is like a hazard waiting to happen lol Im surprised the super glue held on cos last time i used super glue trying to fix glass, it did not work. Silicone sealant is more advisable, i think.

    I adore the wall hanging and am going to try it myself! As someone who went to art school, I would consider using acrylic or plexiglass for the light! Although it looks incredible! Just for safety reasons 💖

    That quilted map is so cool and I have added it to my list of projects I want to do for the future. That and when I have enough patches to justify having it. However for the glass project I highly recommend redoing it and even posting a video giving your viewers safety warnings on what to avoid doing if they attempt something similar. Glass from a picture frame is not meant to hang horizontally like that, not to mention how it already has a crack in it. As you said in the video, when a glass cracks, it spreads, and super glue did nothing to stop it. For your well being and the well being of your guests you should change it out with plexi-glass or something safer. And plexiglass comes in many different colors so you can make it even more funky and cool! But seriously, please please change out that glass on the light fixture.

    Agree with safety comments. One suggestion, hang the new acrylic rings SEPARATELY auspended to the ceiling not the globe. Perhaps, four to six reinforced holes using strong fishing line on eye hooks on anchor bolts from the ceiling. This way you can get larger rings encircling the globe without it touching. This increases safety with a stronger suspension support. And, minimizes potential damage to the globe glass due to the rings weight directly on the globe glass. Great job on the map quilt! Love TSG!

    Using poster frame glass for this piece is very dangerous and unwise. Poster frame glass is very thin and not tempered. It's intended to have a hard backing behind it, not to be hanging in midair like this project. Which means it can break very easily and if it does, it breaks into dagger shaped shards. Something like this project needs thicker tempered glass that is more resistant to breaking and it it breaks, it breaks into smaller nuggets that can't impale you. I actually would have avoided all glass and just get a piece of plexiglass cut in your ring shape.

    The wall hanging is EPIC!!! One of my favorite projects you’ve done. Really fantastic!!!! Just a warning, the Cricut vinyl isn’t going to hold that crack together forever. Please redo this in plexiglass!! And the center hole needs to be a bit bigger to let the “ring” hang closer to the middle.

    That glass having a crack in it is giving me some weird Cult of Chucky vibes when the glass decapitated the woman. Please listen to the comments and change it to acrylic or a thicker glass made to hang horizontally. We love you guys and want you to be safe. I'd also recommend possibly reuploading this with a warning of "do not try", cause I think leaving this video as is could potentially be dangerous if someone attempts.

    I love the quilt! I’m a quilter, and the only thing I might add is some stitching around the colorful pieces of the adhesive ever starts to come loose. Another idea would be to outline the states/provinces in stitching, but I love how the lines look like latitude lines!

    The wall quilt is amazing! It's such an original and unique way to display the patches. For the glass I would use plexiglass instead, since it would create the same effect but is a lighter and safer option.

    I love the wallhanging! The lamp is making me anxious.. I think using a different material would be safer and maybe prettier. Using an orange plexiglass for the ring would look awesome! I think there is even a method to make the outer edge glow.. or maybe that's just what happens with plexiglass and light? I'm not sure, but I bet it would look amazing!

    Edit: OMG, now that I have read the other comments, THE ANXIETY! Please get the glass down before it cuts someone 😢 I would sand the inside of the ring, to make i go slightly lower. And make some stick-on patches (same type as the ones on the rings) for the inside of the lamp to make it look craters and gas-clouds
