    • @FiredGlass
      @FiredGlass 8 днів тому

      Over time you may find the bottle clogs up or the glassline is too thick. Firstly try standing the bottle in warm water for a few minutes then shake. But if that still doesn't work just add a few drops of water into the bottle, give the Glassline a very good shake and it will revitalise the product without fading the black after kilning

    Well I did get this awesome tool , cutting circles is such a joy! Can cut the all day long! Do you fuse 2 circles to make your little ornaments, what is your target temp? Was worried if I only used one, circle would distort in the firing......thank you for your guidance!

    • @FiredGlass
      @FiredGlass 2 місяці тому

      Great to hear you love the tool. We use a tack fuse which is 760ºC in our kilns, it may be different in yours. A full fuse or a tack fuse will work just as well. We only use 1 layer of glass for those ornaments. Firing a single layer will not distort, it will round off, but that's about it. Obviously this will be more pronounced on a full fuse over a tack fuse.

    Love making these, but I hate mixing up the sludge so this is what I do. I keep my powder in a small jar that fits into my rock tumbler container. It doesn't fit perfectly, so I put some paper between my jar and the tumbler container for it to hold in place. I then have a small rock that I put in there that helps to move stuff around as it tumbles. I let it tumble for a half hour, then check on it. If it is mixed well it is done. Stir in more water if needed.
