I made some single layer dish sets this year out of textured Spectrum non-fusible. I firepolished the edges first and then slumped. They're nice and smooth but still retain all their texture. I put the texture down on the shelf so the smooth side was the top.
uh....duh! Me soo dumb sometime. :oops: :oops:
