ideas to move SG to warm glass

I currently make greenhouses out of traditional stained glass. I would like to try transfering some of the patterns over to warm glass.

I have no idea how to begin researching how to join edges or make building in a kiln. Had anyone ever tried to fuse a 90 degree angle? Would I be better off trying this with a torch and "welding" the corners of my panels together?

Thanks for any ideas and/or advice you can give.

Hi Gabriel,

I'd like to see some of your greenhouses to get an idea of the scale. I think it would be difficult, if not impossible, to weld two flat panels together due to thermal shock - but others on the board may have some ideas for you in that regard.

You should be able to create flat panels of fused glass and use your stained glass methods for creating the corners.

Good luck
