Hi, Working for a theatre producing Ayckbourn's Snake in the Grass and needing to have wine glasses that can break safely on stage but also be drank from in the scene leading up to the break. We've explored various breakaway urethane options, as well as candy glass, but neither seem to have the...

Hi all, Big fan of all of your work, but I've rarely written in.Recently inherited 2 old Lee Colortran Elipsoidals, the kind where you can move the lenses and field stops around to change the beam size. They came with a box of lenses and little rubbery (silicone?) grippy things to keep the...
