Cheryl,
You're thinking like a customer. We don't need and don't want a third coe standard. Gecko probably doesn't wasn't to support either BE or Spectrum by supplementing their standards. OR the only coe they can consistently produce is 109.

The bottom line is: if Gecko Fusible wants to be a major supplier they will have to become as good as Spectrum and Bullseye. No company, Chinese, European or American, can start from scratch and compete with the top suppliers in an industry. But if they want to stay in the business and not lose thei...

Jolly, I just went through this with my house which had a 200 amp panel. I bought a 50 amp kiln, already had 2 small kilns, and every spot in the panel was full with some other function in house, or the hot tub. Plus, being in Texas, an AC in the garage studio is a requirement. With the help of my c...

I'm probably showing my ignorance ... I was taught that kiln wash is only effective at full fusing temperature once. So if you prefire at 1500, haven't you already used it? Bob, I really appreciate you asking the question about prefiring because I've been puzzled by it also. I was taught to complete...

Lisa, I have just gone through this process. In addition to what has already been said, Sam's Club has been a great resource. Their Gorilla Racks were the best shelving units I could find. The best. Adjustable shelving, can hold 750 pounds each, 7 feet tall, under $60 per set. Sam's also has the adj...

I always cut pre-fired glass by hand. I can't think of a good reason why you would want to use a saw for that. I sometimes fire a 3 X 5 piece that may be up to 6 layers deep (mostly dichroic) that I then cut into smaller pieces for pendants and earrings. I don't use my tile saw for this, but use a t...

Which Yellow Page Category do you Use?
I am biting the bullet and putting a real business phone in my studio instead of an extra line attached to my home phone. I thought I was ready every question but was really stumped when they asked what yellow page category I wanted to be listed in. There doesn't seem to be a good fit. Which categor...
