Hi everyone,

I need some coarse frit and wanted to use up some scrap glass. So, yesterday I put it between cardboard and hammered away. I did pretty well (I think) and have what I need. My question is can some of the fit be small fingernail size. I'm planning on a freeform design for my flat disc which will be slumped into a drop ring. I'll hold at least an hour at 1225 for a bubble squeeze. Is this enough or do I have to go back outside and pound some more.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Bullseye's coarse frit is from 2.7 to 5.2 mm (about .1 to .2 inches). Spectrum and Uroboros coarse is a bit larger, 2.5 to 7.6 mm range (about .1 to .3 inches). None of that is quite as large as a fingernail, but if you're just wanting to make a free form design with frit scattered about, larger sizes will work fine.

Great - thanks for your quick response. I appreciate it.
