I have been searching for method of attaching a 3" glass globe to the top of a carved snake walking cane I am carving. I think I am close to a solution. I have purchased "Magic Sculp" a two part epoxy clay to attach the globe to the walking cane.

Has anyone used Magic Sculp before?

Will the magic sculp attach to the globe well enough to hold on to the top of the walking cane?

Just curious if anyone has done something simular.

I'm planning to try and drill the glass globe. It's solid 3" glass paper weight, so I'm hoping to try and drill a small hole into the bottom.

I've been looking at drilling glass on the internet. Looks like I can get s special drill bit for glass. This will be a new thing for me.

Want to use the Magic Sculp as a buffer between globe and stick.

What do you think?

Two of the 3" globes arrived today and, they are not 100% glass as I have feared. I removed a piece of felt from the bottom and the inside of the globes appear to be some type of masonary material, looks like concrete. I'm sure I can drill this material with a masonary bit.
