New pendants, I'm happy with the silver bails. Some would look better with gold bails. Know of any available?

What is "bail"?
Is it the same as a "Catcher"

Tajai,
I use an Inland easymark with the tip that came on it. Its small like a big pen and much easier to handle than my Dremal which will work but even with a flex shaft is much harder to control.The Inland is designed for signatures and since mine is years old I've heard I'm lucky it still works. I got mine at Alpine stained glass for under $30.00.
The images are etched, you are removing the dichroic coating, before firing.
Val,
The smallest pendants are 1 inch across. I use magnifying glasses and go stir crazy in about 30 minutes and have to go do heavy work. Which is no problem around here as I care for 25 horses.
Good luck and thanks for the positive comments.
