Re: latest and greatest kiln

I agree with Brock. Keep an eye on Craigslist for them. I just picked up two from two different people for $800 ea with about $500 worth of glass a supplies!

Viewing windows in kilns

I was wondering, are the viewing windows worth the extra money you pay for them? Anyone out there have one-feedback would be appreciated.

Re: how do i do this

I didn't mean my comment to suggest you were going to copy, my statement was more a general one. Sorry if I offended you, I truly didn't mean too.

Re: Glass meant for shelves

I was given some of this type of glass a few months ago. I did screen print on it. After it was fired, I sandblasted then slumped. Worked great. Still can't figure out the whole "tin side" thing. I would not have paid for the glass, but has been fun to play with.

Re: Printing on thin fire

I just did a 200 piece trophy order. They also wanted their logo. I screen printed them and they looked great. If you don't have access to that option test the Thinfire method and just make the white a design element.
