I just got done doing a pot melt. I had a 8 inch sq lined with fiber paper and a sheet of clear on the bottom. The pot was good it is 3/4" thick nice movement. I went and clean the edges of with the tile saw. This is when i realize the clear is much thicker on the border area I guess is that th...

Thanks for the suggestion. I did tun the breaker off and back on. it did the same.
I think this weekend I will buy a new breaker and try that. If that fails I will open it up
and try cleaning all the contacts.

Thanks

I have a Evenheat 23" Kiln probably 10 -12 years old. I do not use it much lately . I have done several firing in the past 3 or 4 months no problem. Yesterday I went to do a fire polish and it clicked a few times and did nothing. No error codes, it just said not today buddy,would not fire. I un...

I can not advise you on what type of trailer but I can tell you about is that they are getting really strict on enforcing commercial trailer restrictions. I was at a show recently and asked about getting a trailer, I was thinking about getting a 8 x 10 enclosed. I was told that after one show a Huff...

I had decided a while back to start doing home parties for my jewelry and try to stay out of stores and having to raises prices up to pay for commisons. My daughter had some in Chicago and did okay but it was actually the first for me. The lady who hosted this though did it different from what I was...

I just read a flyer that Grecko glass sold by glascraft out of Texas is saying that this line is fuible at 109 COE. They have a downloadable file on firing schedule and annealing a pdf file. I tried to download it but it was not possible at this time. Anyone heard anything about this? That has to be...

I have been using it for the bottom sides of coasters and I got about 10 firing out of mine before it ripped in pieces. What I like to know is where did you find some cheap at. I saw one place that was 4" x 6" for like $60 I think. I got enough to cover a 20 inch shelf one more time and ne...

I have had the 3 for about a month. I think it is much better than the 2. It is not as noisy,it does have a bigger work surface and a ledge behind the saw that I put little pieces on after I cut and they dont vibrate off. I am not impress with the light or the little shield. I have a swivel light th...

I am getting ready to slump and oval platter 12" across by 9". Right now it is 3 layers thick about .300 and I have a 1/4" overhang. I have never slump with an overhang do you think this is too much of an overhang and that I should cold work it and get it down closer.

Thanks

I recently tacked fused a piece of Spectrum white 10" x 5" on top of a piece of Red Opal Specturm 12" x 7". I did get a few little bumps(air bubbles). I fired 400dph to 1100 soak 10 min 60dph to 1280 soak 25 min 450 to 1400 no soak. Because this was a tack fuse I could not put a ...

It was all fused together and then I copper foil it then solder. Clean flux off really good strong solution lots of scrubbing. I than used the Novacan Coppe...

Usually I go to 1400 with a 15 min soak only went to 1350 with...

I have this excellent bottle painted by a friend of mine. It is exteremly detailed and was done with paradise pre mixed not powder paint. Firing is suppose to go to 1350-1450. With all this detail, you can see by picture do you think that I will lose the detail. Would it help to fire it slower or fi...

You could try and cheat by clean your edges really good and use a good two part epoxy.

never have fired anything with silver in the kiln. I just pulled the piece of glass that I got directly from be connection. I just called them up and it was a missed label glass. It had 1401 in a black marker but the sticker had 1320. My cataloque did not show 1320 but it was a marigold color. Thank...
