Havi, you're correct. The mesh is twist-tied to the rebar and the rebar just sits on the mullite cross pieces.

Normally, I don't fire clay molds, but I am asking this piece to support the weight of the stacked glass, and I don't want any of the clay material to drop with the glass. Impossible to remove.
