The '''Glazier's Bench''' is used to make various [[Glass]] products, such as [[Glass Rods]] and [[Sheet Glass]]. It runs on [[Charcoal]].

== Sources ==
This building becomes available after you have learned the {{RequireSkill | Glassblowing | 0}}. Once built, anyone can make [[glass]] products regardless of skill.

== Cost ==
* {{Require | 200 | Firebricks}}
* {{Require | 400 | Bricks}}
* {{Require | 1200 | Sand}}

== Use ==
*Has a reservoir that can hold a maximum of '''50''' deben of molten glass - if you attempt to load it with more than that, the materials will not be loaded, instead you are told "''The crucible holds a maximum of 50 deben of glass.''"
*Must contain '''at least 20''' in order to craft an item, regardless of how much the item will actually consume.
*19 deben of glass can never be used; it is a permanent minimum reservoir level.
*Unused molten glass stays in the bench between uses, even after cooling (it re-melts the next time you heat the bench), so it is not necessary to fill the reservoir from scratch every time.

==Types of Glass==
An individual bench can only contain one type of glass (soda, normal, or jewel) at a time. If you want to use a bench for a different type of glass, you must deliberately empty the reservoir and start over. Since this is so wasteful, it's generally more economical to build an additional Glazier's Bench for the new glass type instead.

!Glass Type !! Melting Point !! Working Temp !! Ingredients

| [[Normal Glass]] || 3200° || 1600–2400° || 1 [[Lime]], 2 [[Potash]], 10 [[Sand]]
|-
| [[Jewel Glass]] || 4400° || 1600–2400° || 1 [[Lime]], 2 [[Potash]], 10 [[White Sand]]
|}

==Products ==
One type of ingredients set is heated to high temperature to produce melted glass of the desired type. The melted glass can later be formed to the various end products. It takes 1 deben of glass to create 1 item, except where noted otherwise.

=== Soda Glass Products===

* [[Glass Rod]]s Takes 60 Seconds
* [[Glass Pipe]] Takes 90 Seconds
* [[Glass Scythe Blade]] Takes 30 Seconds (Requires Glassblowing 1)

=== Normal Glass Products ===

* [[Glass Pipe]] Takes 90 Seconds
* [[Glass Jar]] Takes 90 Seconds
* [[Glass Rods|Glass Rod]] Takes 60 Seconds
* [[Sheet Glass]] Takes 120 Seconds (Success also depends on the [[Sheet Glass Fabrication]] skill)
* [[Decorative Torch]] (aka [[Glass Torch]]) Takes 180 Seconds (Requires 5 glass, Requires Glassblowing 1)
* [[Empty Wine Bottles]] Takes 90 Seconds (Makes 12 for 1 glass, Requires Glassblowing 1)

=== Jewel Glass Products===

* [[Fine Glass Rods]] Takes 90 Seconds
* [[Fine Glass Pipe]] Takes 90 Seconds
* [[Sigil of Ra|Jewelled Glass Sigil]] Takes 180 Seconds

=== Mirror ===
Once you have obtained a Sheet Glass Fabrication skill of 7, you will receive a new menu entry, "Fuse silver powder to sheet glass".

A [[mirror]] is made in any glazier's bench regardless of the amount or type of glass. The bench has to be heated above 5000<uv/> degrees. To make a mirror you must have 200 [[Silver Powder]] and 1 [[Sheet Glass]] in your inventory. Sheet glasses in the bench do not count so you have to let the bench cooldown and take the sheet glass out before making a mirror. It takes 30 seconds for the silver powder to fuse to the glass to make a mirror.

'''NOTE:''' Various glass products can be placed in a [[Glory Hole]], and converted to advanced resources.

==Pollution==

They did not appear to cause pollution in T7: After going through 31 debins of glass, the soot level remained at 0.

In previous tales, using this building would cause soot pollution to occur in roughly a 50 cord radius. After running 46 debins of glass through (20 sheet glass, 26 glass jars on 2 benches), the soot level around the compound went from 0 to 6 right as the benches were cooling. Any area effected by soot would cause flax to yield nothing when harvested.

 ==Ecological Impact==
-Glaziers benches continue to be excellent producers of Soot. Other changes may, or may not, be possible depending on product, but Glass Rods and Glass Pipes made from Soda Glass are very capable of quickly elevating the levels of Soot around the benches, and it is likely all other products will as well, or simply running benches is sufficient to accomplish the same. Glazier's Benches are the highest-impact Soot producers per unit of runtime/product produced, excepting only early-tale Smelters. -Somebob
