I just use a crate for the big glass, but I found these, and they work really well for glass that's about 12 - 13 inches. I bought a bunch of them and have them standing on end so I can slide the glass in and out.

Re: Turbo Top
I don't know anything about the turbo top, but I would hesitate to go up that fast for fear of breaking the pot containing the glass.

Re: Jewelry -stick and smooth, not melt
Good luck on the sawing when I didn't see a tack fusing annealing schedule in there. :-k I agree with Kevin -- Take a look at Spectrum's suggested firing schedules and adjust your annealing holds and ramps to match the appropriate schedule for whatever thickness of glass you have. http://system96.c...

Re: annealing 96 question
I'd go up at 50 dph (or slower) to 1000 degrees, then come back down through the recommended annealing schedule... Good Luck!

Re: annealing 96 question
Here are the suggested firing and annealing recommendations from System 96:

I would follow the 1 inch recommendation since you are firing on the sand bed.

Re: Current info on ring saws
I use the Taurus 3 - it works fine for 3mm glass. I've also cut thicker (up to 3 layers) - it's very hard on the blade, but it will do it.

Re: opal sticking to kilnwash - can I use plaster/silica pla
I soak them in vinegar overnight. The kiln wash comes right off and then rinse them with water. It works like a charm.

When I click on "view active posts", the only posts that I see active are in the Buy/Sell and the Classes/Events folders. Is anyone else having the same problem?
