Glass etching is fun! I’ve done it both with the cream, the laser, and with a sand blaster. Used the vinyl cutter with the cream and sand blasting. That will be a fun class for people. Using Pyrex is a popular thing. I used some glass vases from IKEA when I made some awards for someone. Super cheap in case you make a mistake. :joy:
