In three Burlington Vermont buildings he maintains his Stained Glass Studio and also a retail store in which he offers tools, books, and craft supplies and materials for sale. In the separate warehouse he offers large sheets of colored Opalescent Glass, Cathedral glass, blown and drawn Antique Glass, and a very large inventory of specialty clear and patterned glasses for kitchen and bathroom cabinets. In a third building he maintains a small but well-equipped wood and machine shop for special architectural projects.
