In the Sacramento area.. $225.00

Does anyone know if glass becomes less stable the more times it’s fired to 1600?

Glastar twin spin. Comes with cork and diamond wheels. Cant seem to post pic. If interested ill send pic to you. Im in Sacramento Ill take best offer

Long story short. I have a piece that only dropped 3 of the 7in. My question is, can I start a new drop schedule with the glass being different thicknesses without it cracking?

Anyone out there have a dl7000? I seem to have broken mine and their tech support is wanting.

Thank you.

Those out there doing drop outs, what is your high temp?

Gotta take Plavix for 90 days. Need recommendations for cut proof gloves. Thanks in advance.

All my firings for the last 8 years have been on thinfire. Never on a treated shelf. I have used a lot of turquoise, but always on thinfire. Ill retreat the shelves and see what happens. Thanks.

Ran another piece on the new Thinfire and got more streaks. Having never used any silver or foil it’s gotta be the Thinfire? Anyone ever heard of such a thing?

Never

I don't even know what silver stain is much less use it. Any other guesses?

These brown spots appeared on the shelf side of the piece fired on Thinfire at 300dph to 1500 no hold afap to 900 hold 60m 100dph to 700 no hold afap to roomtemp. As you can see they didn’t appear on the teal and the turquoise colors. Is there such a thing as bad Thinfire? I just started using a new...

Follow up. Slowed the heatup to 100dph. Same thing happened. I now know Brad was correct in that the top elements were too close. The delamination was always on the bottom of the slab. Dropping the shelf solved the problem.

The base is not attached. I want to give the owner the ability to change the angle and rotation of the piece if its static. The best way to display this kind of piece is on a mirrored rotating stand.

Thank you. Fragile objects should be placed out of harms way, don’t you think?

Thanks you all for the help. I will slow down.

Brad, my kiln has a separate control for the lid elements. For slumps I have it on low. Do you know if you Can you evenly heat a piece with just the side elements? My shelf is 5 in from the lid.

Jim, 300dph is too fast? What would you use?
