Glass eyes
 
Hate to ask on this page, but someone posted within the last couple of years a great web site to buy glass eyes that were manufactured in this country. I have a need for a few sets. If anyone has that info and could relay the web site I'd appreciate it.

I think it was this one Van Dyke taxidermy South Dakota

Thank you so much. Had to have my desktop HD stripped awhile ago and my bookmarks couldn't be saved.

I bet you could make your own pretty easily and have some fun doing it. All you need is a mapp gas torch. Then, I'd buy some moretti rods in black, yellow and clear and then use some copper wire to wrap a bit of black around, then a little bit of yellow and then a big dollop of clear over it to form a lens. Fill a coffee can with vermiculite to act as a ghetto annealer to let it cool down slow.

I just did a little test. I successfully wrapped some glass around stainless through wire with a mapp gas torch. I don't think a class is needed with this... Just try it.
