What is LSM?
Liquid Stringer Medium - LSM is designed to mix with any form of crushed glass to make a paste that is often referred to in the glass art world as pate-de-verre. This is an ancient technique in which glass is made by blending powdered glass of different colors into a paste. At room temperature, this glass paste can be sculpted into shapes or squeezed from bottle. At glass fusing temperatures, the glass particles bond together forming a solid. LSM is the unique binder that holds the glass particles together until they bond.
Much like cake decorating, piping is decorating by adding lines of liquid glass instead of icing. You can use piping to simply sign your name in glass or crisscross colored glass lines to create an intricate and original design. One very exciting variation of piping is cold combing. Cold combing is a cool way to achieve the hot details of combed glass.
