Perfecting this fused bowl-to-be
Posted: Mon Mar 24, 2014 12:07 pm
I knew that my edge matches were not perfect when I laid out this
circle of glass, but I thought that they would fuse together to deal with
the irregularities. But that did not happen as evidenced by the "black" lines
where the pieces join in the middle. So, my question is did I not hold the
temperature at the fusing point long enough, and can I go back and refuse it
to get a better result. Or, is this the best it will be and re-fusing won't help?
All suggestions are very welcome. I'd like to improve my techniques.
Thanks,
Emily
