I agree with all your criticisms. I'm glad to see your honesty.
Hi Cindy. Always critical of the end result. Can always learn something.
Tape over the sharpie! what a great solution to disappearing tracing lines. Thank you!!
Hi Sergio. My pleasure. Won't last forever, but usually long enough to make the cut.
Hi there. Is it just gift wrapping tape ? Like scotch tape ? ❤
Great video - inspiring as always! Thank you!
Hi Melissa. My pleasure.
Absolutely stunning
Thanks Sandi 👍

I like the black.
Hi Joanne. I think that's the beauty of art. It really is all about how we each see and appreciate things. Glad you like the piece.
I looks Wonderful!
Thanks Lisa.
Looks great, who said a bowl has to be round! Love the shape 😀 Cheers
And some of mine are far from round 🙄
Loved the shape of this bowl. I agree on not using the black. Great video.
Hi Sherry. If there had been less white, more vanilla and hence more reaction it may have worked.
Super fã ♥️🌈🍀🌺🌞⭐ Brasil
Thank you Monica.
Beautiful bowl! It would be interesting to see the same process but slump from the other side.
Hi Judi. For sure. It would look nice, I think.
Quizás, menos blanco, pero el toque de negro no me molesta. Muy lindo trabajo!!!!
Hola Maria. Gracias. Sí, definitivamente menos blanco.
The tape is a WONDERFUL idea!!! Stealing! Is it just regular tape you use for paper?
Hi Laura. Yes, just ordinary sticky tape. It's not perfect, but usually last long enough for me to make the cut.
You make me want to buy a kiln!
Hi Tammie. It can be a bit addictive. It's not the making endless bowls etc for me, more the discovery after trying new things.
@@RocketRoseArt hi Jeff. Yes I just spent a wonderful evening picking the brain of a wonderful lady in Pflugerville, Tx. Loving learning from all of you 😀
Hi there. I usually do pottery, but am interested in fusing glass. So far, I’ve slumped bottles for charcuteries. Could you tell me the slump mold you suggest for bowls. I would like to try and make one. Also, the materials used. Thanks!
Hi Hannah. There are so many commercially available moulds. Because of this, I can't recommend one in particular, but a good one to start would be something like the one I used in this video. A shallow gentle curve. The slumping would be easier. Or you could look around for something to repurpose. I'll link to a video that gives you some ideas. ua-cam.com/video/UA0peErkk_w/v-deo.html Most moulds are made of bisque ceramic. Hope this helps.
I love the irregular shape. Think you could manage it with just a cutter and some patience?
I'm sure you could. I'd score around the shape and then start the snap. You would probably just need to treat it like a circle and snap away in segments.
a question about the full fuse schedule , you go up to 800 degrees celsius and no hold ? then right back to the lower temperature ...? No 10 minutes hold or so ?
Hi Guy. Yes, no need to hold longer. Holding longer will further process and flatten and round edges, but in this case I was happy to have some texture. Of course, it does depend on your kiln a bit and how quickly it ramps up.
What was the COE of the thick clear glass? I have had problems with thick clear float glass and COE 90 not being compatible. Thank you. Great video!!!
Hi Leanne. COE 90. It's Bullseye. You don't need to use 6 mm. 3 mm clear and Turquoise will be fine. May be a little darker blue in the end. I used the 6 mm because I had it sitting there.
@@RocketRoseArt Love the video and your approach, If using 3mm would you need to adjust the firing schedule, if so, how (Sheila UK)
@@mikerobinson3619 Hi Sheila. Using 2 sheets of 3 mm would then be a total of 6 mm. This means no substantial changes other than the hold on ramp-up and annealing time. I would only hold for 60 minutes both times. They are longer in my schedule because of the thickness. The top processing should still be okay.
@@RocketRoseArt Thanks for the prompt reply Jeff.
Also- when cutting the glass- is it cut no bigger than the bowl?
The maximum size I would cut is the size of the mould. I usually simply flip the mould over and mark out its shape. If you make it too big it may fold over the mould edges. You could make it smaller though, depending on the mould shape. I often make smaller bowls in large moulds.
Do you use a special tape?
Hi Rose Ann. I use ordinary transparent sticky tape to cover my marks. It usually lasts long enough for me to make the cut.
maybe some blue instead of black ?
Hi Guy. With all that white some opal turquoise may work actually. Good idea.
To much white..or not enough...but maybe a bit less thick.
Yes, it is heavy. Just had to use that 6 mm piece of clear. It kept looking at me.
