Default Problem Finding Dichroic Glass Strips

I'm hoping someone out there can solve a problem. Years agp I bought a bunch of dichroic strips from Precision. They were available in many colors and had been slumped so the edges were rounded making it much easier to avoid the bleed through that I sometime get with other strips. Apparently, there have been major changes in the Precision store as it no longer exists under the old URL. I've checked Ron Bearers store and he doesn't sell what I want. I have left a msg. for Rocio and haven't gotten a response so I'm hoping someone might be able to help me find a source for a similar item. Please let me know if you have any info that would help. Thanks in advance!

Gail

I'm not sure these are exactly what you're looking for Gail, but Arrowsprings has a nice selection of dichroic strips and so does Frantz. I'm sure there are others as well.

Good luck!

Gail,

I needed to reorder dichro from Ron and found out that they are out of a lot of the dichro. I called Arrow Aprings and they were also out on a lot of dichro and she said the new shipment should be in within a few weeks. I finally found what I was looking for (I think) on Frantz. Just make sure the dichro say "strips" and not sheet. I called to make sure that they were pre-fired and was told by the girl on the phone that they are. My shipment should be here today so I'll let you know how they look when I get them.

Thank you for your help. These look like they are the same or similar to what I was looking for. I even saw some new stuff on their site that I'd never seen before, so thanks for the information.

Gail
