   Wow… the technique of layering and shaping is just amazing…

   Makes me think I may finally have found a use for my Dremil… but I think yours is special built for that task.

   Thank you Eposs and Artsmart for your compliments. Yes I am self taught over a period of 24 years now, with books videos and slides (in Africa then ). Since being in the UK I have more contact with engravers being on the Council of the Guild of Glass Engravers. Have a look at my website for more information.
   Cheers
   Les

    The bowl is hand made to my specifications in 2 layers of lead crystal. This amount of work on such a piece would be around £600, I sold this some time ago.

    Many thanks for your very useful comment, I was not sure if the drilling noise would drive everyone nuts! I will keep this in mind for future videos. I suppose they could always turn it down if it got too much.
