Re: Question about ceramic rope
Hello ! I will try to explain. I want to make a necklace of cubics 1 x 1 x 1 cm , where the height will be a little more, as I take 4 layers of transparent glass. For the holes I had the idea a 1 - 1,5 mm ceramic rope, using it the whole length for as many cubics as I can place on my kiln-plate. Ful...

Tack fusing, but different
Hello, I did a full fuse with 2 layers Spectrum glass. After that full fuse I did a tack fuse with 2 layers on the first glass. Temp. 750 degrees Celsius. But the 2 layers had spread out, it look like a full fuse. Do you have to use a lower temp. by 4 layers ? Jan de Jong

Re: Making a rainbow
Thank you Jim ! Is there a way to do it with sheet glass (as I still did not work with frits and not have them). Is it possible with a saw ? Janjim simmons wrote:Sure.
cut a circle then cut it in half and layer different frits on it.
