I have a client who approached me the other day with a job that is too big for my studio-
he needs four 15 5/8" x 15 5/8" clear squares for a door.
If anyone can do this quickly please PM me with a time frame and price.
thanks. :D

contact Kokomo Glass Studio or Blenko, They both make lots of large rondels. They may even have some in stock.

Just curious, does the customer want his squares to be cut out of the portion of the rondel that is outside the center punty point - so the real diameter of the rondel has to be 30 inches plus? Just curious

2*sqrt((16/2^2*16/2^2))=22.6 inches in diameter

What size GH would you use to make a 16" rondell, how about a 22" ?

I can make 22" rondels. Unfortunately not quickly. I'm about a month out. What are the details? Clear, colored?

Franklin,
I can make a 15" low bowl, sort of wok shaped out of a 12" glory. Get the setup right and finish the opening on the last heat.
I can do 24" rondels out of an 18" opening.
