I’ve created two more kaleidoscope objective wheels for my father. This time, I tried a plain white opalescent glass I bought a little while ago.

The results are a little more opaque than I had wanted, but they could work as a reflective objective. The process with both was pretty much the same as before. Personally, I like the second one (#4) the best. The frit and powder I used give it a fair amount of color and randomness. The first one is a little too regular, but hey I had the scrap glass just lying around.
Speaking of scrap glass, as an added bonus, I made a bauble. It is just some of my Bullseye white opal with a couple of bits of scrap dichroic glass on top of it. I think I’ll polish the edges a bit, glue a jewelry bail to the back, and see how much I can get for it from some sucker.
