Marking Glass Art Pieces for Grinding

If you notice, and I'm sure you can, there's a lot of pieces, it's not fitting together just quite like we're going to need it to, which means we're going to have to do some grinding. So at this point, what I do is I take one piece at a time, you've got to part to your pattern, and I lay it on top of my pattern. And I start to look at what parts are going to need to be grinded away. I will take my marker and go ahead and make note of what needs to be removed. So, kind of keeping it a little bit on the inside of the line here. And so that is what I am going to be removing, right there with the grinder. And I'm going to do this for each piece until we get them smooth on every edge and just right we can fit them together.
