    My friend and I took a fun glass fusion class at Glass Workbench! We did have one hiccup when we…read morearrived - the shop was locked since the class took place after their regular business hours. We were eventually let into the store and directed to the shop basement where the class took place. Our class instructor was laid back but very knowledgeable throughout the process. He guided us on how to cut and arrange our glass pieces and had a few examples available for inspiration. I will say...the glass cutting was a little dangerous with tiny glass shards flying in all directions. I do wish I was instructed beforehand to bring protective eyewear just in case. My friend got a few cuts on her hands as well. The shop had a large variety of glass colors to choose from and it was very fun to get creative with our projects. We each made 3 glass suncatchers during our ~2-hour class. It was a real "trust the process" experience, as I was not sure how my pieces would turn out after arranging my glass. However, they turned out beautifully! We were instructed to wait one week to come pick up our pieces after they were fired at the shop. They kindly placed holes in our pieces to hang, but only provided string. I decided to reinforce my suncatchers with jump rings and chain. I love how they turned out!!

Teacher was very well informed and you could tell this was definitely his craft, a lot of fun and would go back!

    First time to come here and I am amazed by the vast collection of tools and materials that can…read moreaccommodate to your hobby. I came here for the tools required of my Gundam build and this place did not disappoint. I expected to come and go, but I ended up staying to look around for 15-30 minutes. I do not have much pictures of the store, unfortunately, but this is a must to go here if you are a collector or simply enjoy doing builds as a hobby.

    My hubby insisted we stop here. He likes to put together models, WW II tanks especially. It was…read moretoo hot to stay in the car so I had to go in. Oh my goodness! I was shocked at all the amazing items in this shop! Gigantic remote control cars, trucks and even boats! I didn't even know they made them that big! They are so cool! On the other side of the shop is an incredible selection of models! Hubby found a big WW II tank he had to have. But what really impressed me is the fantastic selection of model trains! Every size with absolutely everything to go with it! I had never seen so much stuff! Gorgeous little trees, animals, tiny people and buildings to decorate your train area! Tons of tracks and everything to design your dream train system! I'm not really into trains, but it made me want to be! If trains are your thing, you need to visit this little shop! Seriously fantastic hobby shop! Everyone who was working there was really nice too! Highly recommend!
