I've been using recycled glass in my artwork exclusively for several years and am on the verge of a major breakthrough. I invented a glass furnace that allows me to cast relatively large glass forms with a very small crucible using a fraction of the energy required by conventional equipment. I've also figured out how to reformulate recycled glass to make it more conducive for casting and blowing.
