JIT Rescue - Completed Art Glass Waterjet Cut to Size
The celebration for the new crucifix and stained glass at St. Bartholomew Catholic Church in Wayzata, MN had been advertised for the upcoming Sunday, Sept 6. On the Thursday before the celebration, the contractor was ready to install the rose window created by John Collier, a renown liturgical artist. However, they ran into a snag...
The beautiful, laminated, glass artwork would need to be cut and trimmed to fit into the constructed architectural opening. Within the hour, Hillstream LLC, the artists representative, highly recommended that the contractor contact JIT Companies. JIT Waterjet was the only water jet company that had the experience of working with one-of-a-kind, expensive artwork. JIT Companies was also expert in handling laminated glass. Plus, JIT had a reputation for doing whatever it takes to meet deadlines and could accomplish the job within a 24 hour period.
