This business of kiln firing glass is extremely complex. We are not especially psychic.

Oy. I spend lots of time answering questions that I know the answers to. Asking the question, "what schedule do I use" requires a book not a BB post.

I'm really not as grouchy as Brock.

The problem is that I could tell you what schedule I use. But if your kiln is different, which it is, it could all blow up. We hate it when that happens. We need to know what kind of kiln. Where are the elements? How are they controlled? What kind of shelf setup? How thick is the glass? for starters.

I'm off tomorrow to play teacher. CU in DC

hmm, i sure don't see anyone here being paid to answer anyone's questions. furthermore, it's pretty arrogant to demand answers to your rather vague question, and then to get pissed that the answers you did receive weren't to your liking.

and yes, perhaps using the archive and search functions before asking may have resulted in obtaining your answers yourself, since this has been well covered previously.
