I've noticed in several posts that a number of you have included glass, plastics and other materials into metal railings and sculpture. How have you fixed the materials in place? I'm particularly interested in outdoors pieces and how different "mounting" techniques have stood up over time.

I finally had a chance and some decent weather to deliver and start installed a railing that has been waiting for months. I was a little afraid that they would not like the finish or the design. They were not home when I delivered it and measured for the hand rails.
