Re: Is this devit?
Thanks Marty, it's like you could hear me getting ready to cut it up and use some of the salvagable pieces.

Re: Is this devit?
Thanks, I saw several postings regarding that when I searched the site. I didn't know too much about the glass before I fired, I assumed it was the same manufacturer/model/COE. I got these in a variety pack a while back and I didn't really like the way they looked, but I assumed it would be compatib...

Re: Is this devit?
I'm pretty sure the conversion is correct, sorry about the formatting. I'll attach a pic of the chart i used, hopefully it's readable. There was an additional chart to add time for larger pieces, etc., so I probably just misinterpreted or miscalculated something. Of course Cent isn't my native langu...

Re: Is this devit?
It might be worth mentioning that I have to use three different sections make up my shelf and the entire surface wasn't flat. I didn't notice until afterwards, but it caused a 1/8" ridge to rise on the bottom of the glass, very near to where there is a concentration of bubbles.

Re: Is this devit?
Sorry about that, I got the schedule from "Warm Glass: A Complete Guide to Kiln-Forming Techniques". They don't specify a 'bubble squeeze' phase, I hadn't seen it mentioned until I came to warmglass and I just figured I'd try the schedule from the book first. As far as the Spectrum; one of...

Is this devit?
This was my fourth time firing and I'm trying to familiarize myself with the full fuse fire schedule and figure out how big of a piece I could fire in the kiln. I tried to keep it simple and use as much uncut glass as possible, so there were 4 - 12" x 12" tiles and 2 - 12" x 3.5"...

Re: Glassmelting over Metal
I recently fired on a sheet of 22g cold rolled steel. I did a Full fuse schedule on a skutt gm1414 with 1/2" coe90 glass. I put the sheet directly on top of the kiln posts and a layer of thin fiber paper between the steel and glass. I also put a coat of high temp release on the steel. Unfortuna...
