Why do we temper glass? The answer may seem obvious! To make it stronger of course! But why exactly does glass need to be stronger? What are the mechanics behind tempering anyway?
This isn’t your standard video about glass being put into an oven, but instead explores the actual nuances and WHY glass behaves the way it does.
This is part one of our four-part series regarding edgework and tempering, and this video paves the way to the murky depths of edgework, tempering and post-temper (or not) polishing.
We’d love comments on the video format, topics and whatever else you would like to learn from the fabricator’s perspective!
