"Hi, this is Cheryl from Expert Village and I'm gonna be teaching you how to make fused glass jewelry today. So, check it out. Alright, we're back over here at the glass grinder. I'm gonna show you to grind out a groove in these little pieces. So you can wire wrap them and make them into a necklace. Just to let you know, the lights are dimming a little bit because the power in here is really horrible and the kiln takes a lot, so its draining all of our electric. So, don't worry about it, its not your eyes going crazy, it's my studio. It?s not full of power so it's okay. Just to let you know over here on the glass grinder, you have to take off your old grinder. Basically, just use Allen wrenches and get on in there, kinda tedious, but that's okay. Comes out, take it out and now you get to use this right here. Oh no, it's okay, I saved it! Which is the groove grinder, basically. Stick it on evenly and what your gonna do is basically look to see where you want your little groove to go in there. Definitely worry about there. Take a little Allen wrench and tighten it up. Lefty loosie, righty tighty. Good little one. And there you have it, nice and tight, it's not going anywhere."
