Thanks Brad.

sorry, I meant #12. that's turquoise opal, capped with reactive ice? or turquoise opal with reactive ice powder?

thanks, Brad. I am curious to know what she used for #6.

How much does the irid coating diminish the reaction?

Valerie is right. there is a thin coating of clear, on the surface of FV. that's why some people sandblast it off, to increase the reaction with dense white or turquoise, etc.

yes, but those tapes are in wolof.

forget it, I looked it up. you can get Berlitz tapes to learn it.

what is wolof?

oy vey.

be prepared for your studio to smell up quite a bit. leave a window open, run a fan.

thank you both. yes, there are many situations where we don't want the texture. it makes sense to start by contacting the kiln manufacturer. and we don't want the seams that we are dealing with from the multiple shelves we are now using.

If Brad has Isofrax in 48" rolls, that would be good. thanks Bert.

Anyone know of a supplier for such a large kiln? Thanks.

have had many discussions with Hang Your Glass on hxtal. it's definitely the thing to use in my case. and yes you can use a heat box to speed the curing process.

thanks, Bert. I have to use hxtal, not the standoff glue that Hang Your Glass sells, because my pieces are transparent. I am feeling hopeful. I have an installer here in DC, but not in California, where some of the pieces are going.

just because Hang Your Glass is successful doesn't tell me what kind of wall it will work on and how much weight the wall can take. the standoffs are sold according to glass weight, but not the wall composition.

I will soon be installing, in various locations, on dry wall...using Hang Your Glass standoffs. The heaviest piece is 12 pounds, most are less.
Using molly bolts, and two standoffs for the heavy pieces, does my work have a good chance of staying on the wall and not crashing to the floor anytime soon?

wow, gorgeous. your work is always so beautiful.
