Looks like a fun art project, thanks! As you say, there aren't too many tools needed. If you were doing this on your own, though, not part of a class, where would you get the glass? It looks like you had a nice variety of interesting pieces to choose from.

I got to use the studio's supply, so I haven't had to really sort out glass buying myself. And yeah, I was lucky to benefit from access to a really great collection of glass. But there are some commercial firms (Spectrum does very flat, transparent glass; Delphi does stuff with more character) and you can go haunt estate sales, watch for hobbyists getting out from under their supply, check with art schools, etc.
