+Glass is pretty good. When tempered and treated it's pretty shock-resistant, can handle a wide range of temperatures, chemically stable, and handles radiation without degrading too much.
+== Sourcing ==
+For my initial experiments I want to use recycled glass. I have lots of mirror scraps, some blown glass bottles, and a glass tabletop. I need to solve a few problems:
+  * Removing the silvering on the mirrors,
+  * Blown versus float glass,
+  * Smashing the glass into frit,
+    * Particle size,
+    * Wash versus non-wash.
+  * Fusing the glass into solid chunks.
+    * Temperature profile,
+    * Flux.
