    "Kingdom of Heaven"

    In 2013, I was commissioned by the St. Thomas Anglican Church in Johannesburg, South Africa to design and manufacture a triptych window set in dalle de verre. I have been waiting for an opportunity to put my trusty Glass Eye 2000 Enterprise Edition through its paces, designing and executing the project using my newly acquired waterjet cutter. I did the presentation, exploded and nested the glass for water jetting, designed and printed the internal reinforcing and printed the full-scale drawings on a plotter.
