Another issue is stemware with a slighty crooked stem, it's usually not
a lot but just enough.
I do a fair amount of black mirror from JDS, nice product, but yes, sometimes
the letters dissapear. I believe it's because when the glass fractured it
did it at such an angle the light reflects off it differently. It is engraved
and by tilting it slightly the letters are visible.
