Again, thank you all for your kind words. I worked in stained glass for years, but I am getting much more satisfaction from working with my kiln....the feel of the glass, the weight, the shine.... I love to peek in through the peep hole and watch the glass move...so organic! You are all quite an ins...

Oh you guys are wonderful!!! Thanks for the comments....certainly encouraging. I'll post again as I improve.

6.5 inch diam. It took me a while to get used to my kiln and to figure out fusing/slumping schedules, etc. I certainly have to thank this board for a ton of help and information!

Ok, so I have a ton to learn, but I'm sure having a blast in the process...

Thanks for your replies. I will try cutting sans oil and will wash, dry and use alchohol. You guys are awesome!

Having a bit of a problem with cutters oil left on small pieces of glass layered on top of larger piece. Was curious how most of you pros clean your pieces prior to fusing. Thanks!

OK....thanks again. I'll let you know how it goes. Sure appreciate your help. I'm doing this all trial and error....more error than anything else though

Thanks for the info Brock. I will certainly give it a try. One question (excuse my ignorance)....what rate do I use to drop to 950? Thanks again!

Have a Paragon Fusion 7. Using BE glass for everything. Used this schedule for a 4.5 inch square, clear base, opaque colors on top....with light colors came out perfectly. Just fused a 6.5 inch square, clear base, opaque colors on top....TONS of devitrification on surface. Only difference is the opa...

Thanks again for all your help guys. I'm pretty confident I was able to get the spot covered enough. I'll be firing up that baby this weekend and will let you know how it goes.

Thanks Cheryl. It is a ceramic mold. I will use your suggestion.

Stella--

Thanks for the suggestions....I sure appreciate it. And Patty...thanks to you I can now cut perfect circles! Awesome website!

I'm still new at this and learning as I go, so bare with me. I just applied kiln wash to a slumping mold (I use a wonderful blue-colored wash so I can see if I've missed any areas), and there seems to be one spot where the wash just won't take. Any suggestions?

I recently received my new Paragon Fusion 7 and have had a ton of fun with it (can't wait to see my electric bill). I've done a few pieces with 2 to 3 levels of stacking using the firing instructions I found on this site. I now want to try something using more mosaic-like using one level. I was wond...

Thank you all for your suggestions. Kitty....that site is fantastic....I cut a perfect circle!!!

Ok...I am a complete newbie at the fusing/slumping thing (have done stained glass for years). I have tons of questions, but will start with these: 1. I used the "wash" as intructed on the bottom of my new kiln, the shelf, and a mold. The kiln bottom seems fine, but the shelf seems very, we...
