How 'bout then Dawgs.....

Jackie, I was not sure at first.. you said you were in love.. and you were referring to the girl next door, and also meeting her at the bus stop. That usually happens to school aged guys.... :? then I read and found out it was about the work that she did.... I second the motion... pics.... of the wo...

Go dawgs...
If you get down to the Sarasota area there is Firebug designs in Venice. She has a nice shop.

YOu will need to learn about your kiln and how fast it heats and cool. I would suggest starting on low for about 30 mins and then slowly move upp the dial till about 1100 then high till you get where you want to go... then turn the machine to low and let the kiln cool.. when you get to about 1100 th...

You are so right!!!! It all depends on the moon. Is that why my mold cracked???

hmmmmm Alice De[/quote]

Alice what type of mold are you using? ceramic? If so, you need to ramp it slow or else it will crack over time.. I go at 300 DPH.

Charlie,
It is great that you have time again to post here. You were so busy with the mags we hardly saw you here. Glad you are back with your great ideas... including this one.... very practical.

Stuart

If you have a clean crack and you can get the 2 pieces next to each other and then have a full sheet under it, it is no different than butting 2 different pieces of glass next to each other over or under a full sheet. If you are using irids you will get some pulling. It does work easier if the crack...

What type of glass was it? Was the crack along the wire? Did both pieces layers crack? Did it crack on the way up or the way down? ie was the crack partially healed? Do you have pictures?

Another question.. if they are both 2500 watts... and one has top elements only and one has top and side... on the second one how much power will go to the top elements? Will it get hot enough with just the top element? you might need to sides also to get to the top temp. Also, the sides will help i...

of course.. manual.. you can always have them all the way on or all the way off... but with manual you have the intermediate.

No Jerry it only happens on a regular basis because you and I are the only ones up at 3:00 am on a regular basis. That is why I usually get the messages right after you.

Stuart

Is the second kiln square or still octagon? Are they both 15 amp or will the other one be 20 Amp.

I would recommend getting the controls. You can always just keep them on or off and this point and at a later date then you can use them.

Stuart

There are classes in Richmond. I sent you an e-mail with info.

Stuart

and where does one get fine silver? Rio Grande?

You can get another knob for the infinate switch that will say low, medium, and high. Start the kiln on low and start heating your kiln, then switch it to medium till it gets to about 1000. Then you can put it on high till the temp you want.. Then slow it down again to get to annealing. Once you get...

Lynn, By going 9999 on the Bartlett and Orton Controllers is basically the same as AFAP on others. What it does is fires the relays at 100% instead of coming on and off to keep the temp going at the rate that you want. It also turns off the part of the controller that allows for checking for too muc...

The kiln is a GL22. The shelf is near the bottom. So, I would think about 8 inches.

Paul Tarlow lives in Austin and he gives classes.

Now, you are smitten with the bug that has gotten all of us.
