Has anyone tried doing a pot melt onto fiber paper or Thin Fire?
Thanks
Michael

yes. don't. it will pull up fibers or dust into the glass, cause ugliness at the best, and incompatibilities and cracking at the worst.
i use a piece of glass for the melt to land on, and very fine layer of baby talc under that to allow the glass to slide without sticking.
