Looking outside through clear glass panes

Clear glass and clear panes are made in the Smeltery by melting down standard glass, or even sand. As the name suggests, unlike vanilla glass blocks and panes, the Tinkers' Construct version is completely transparent. Furthermore, clear glass is not destroyed when broken/blown up, it will drop as item instead.

Their blast resistance are stronger than vanilla Glasses, but they are still not Ghast-resistant, this is the reason Clear Glasses and panes are still not a good building material in The Nether.

A single glass block can be smelted to produce a clear glass block using a Casting Basin. One glass block will make four clear panes using a Casting Table.

Uses

Clear Glass is used in the creation of Stained Glass.
