I was curious, if I took broken, crushed glass and embedded in into a resin blank, could this be turned on the lathe?
This sounds like an injury waiting to happen. With some of the harder resins, I tend to get a lot of chipping. I can only imagine how much glass would chip and how sharp those chips would be. Not to mention the possibility of inhaling airborne glass dust. If you're looking for "glass like" pieces in your resin, you could pour thin sheets of colored resin and break them up with a hammer after fully cured.
Glass shards spinning at a couple thousand rpm just doesn't feel right.
