This is a biggie! Future projects will be filmed across multiple videos rather than all in one video. You can use the Chapter option in the Description, or play head to jump backwards and forwards if you want to.
You ARE the Bob Ross of fused glass, or perhaps the Bobbie Ross. I AM glad that you didn't "beat the devil out of it," as he would have said. 🙂 Thank you for this wonderful video--I learned a lot. Best wishes!
Absolutely amazing! Thank you for this video. I really wanted to know how this look was achieved and I finally came across your video. I didn't realise how much hard work went into making them. Beautiful.
As always, I am madly in love with all of these beautiful projects. I always, always enjoy your teaching techniques and tips and tricks throughout! Thank you! ❣
You are a wonderful teacher and your cottage garden is delightful. I will be watching more of your videos and using your techniques to improve my glass work. Thank you!
Wow. I am so pleased I discovered your video. I have been looking for ways to use my coe90 scrap. Very much enjoyed your teaching style, details, as well as your organizing tips.
Thank you Judy, great to hear. If you've not seen our Making Dots video that's also a great way to use up your scrap COE90 ua-cam.com/video/tOUOVP77GJY/v-deo.html
Thank you for watching, glad to hear you like our videos and style. The samples are a great idea, especially if you have students on courses as it makes it so much easier for them to see the final output colour.
We started with microwave kilns but no longer use them or have any in the studio. There’s facebook groups on microwave kilns which are worth joining for information and learning.
Jill does like to keep things organised. Makes finding things much easier. Also when we run courses it's easier and quicker to keep on top of things. Thanks for watching.
I'm really enjoying your videos and your teaching style. Your samplers are very creative! I am just learning glass fusing, colors, cutting--everything. I would like to try making some color samplers somewhat like yours. May I ask what thickness of glass you used for your 2" color samplers and how did you apply the little handle which is fused to the top for hanging them on the cord? You're so clever!
@@FiredGlass awesome! I didn’t know if the jewelry bales were strong enough. It looked like fused glass or rod. I’m so excited to do this so I can see the colors!
All your supplies are amazing. Did you make the murini or did you buy all that. You must have a million dollars in murrini. So fun. Im green with jealousy. LOL
HI Diane, we started off purchasing murini and stringers, but then decided to get a vitrigraph kiln and make our own. Takes quite a while to do and build up the knowledge and techniques, but at least you can always have stock.
@@FiredGlass amazing. I just bought a vitro kiln but now need to learn how to use it other thuan making just plain old vitrigraph. Do you have videos on that
@@dianeseverns2382 ah cool having your own kiln is ideal. We don't do videos on vitrigraph use and pot preparation. Check out Nathan Sandberg for murrine creation.
Where can I order the spring glass sifter you showed in the flamingos video please? Not the power Pro, but the one that has the spring that slides along the handle. Thank you. Love your calm teaching style.
Hi Teresa I've just replied where you asked the question on the other video. So please excuse the copy and paste. You can get them from Warmglass in the UK. I don't know where in the world you are, so that mayn't help as Warmglass only ship within the UK. The item is called a coil actuator fine mesh sifter over here in the UK. I you are USA based then search for JC Line & Dot Sifter with Coil Actuator
Brilliant tuition. Thanku. Can you please tell me the thickness of glass you are using and where to purchase power pro (wglass) don’t have it. Many thanks Susan
Hi Susan, thank you for watching. A complete list of material used, codes, thickness etc are in the description below the video, along with the time stamps for each section. The P3 is also listed there too.
It should work okay yes. Best to check based on the type of mould you will be using as that can influence the schedule. warmglass-tf-prod.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/media/wysiwyg/Tips_for_Using_Bullseye_Slumping_Moulds.pdf
This was wonderful! Thank you for sharing your expertise. May I ask what the name of that little square scoop spatula with the tweezers is? I'd love to find me a couple of pair.
First you need to consider the thickness of the piece. You can use a standard slumping schedule but I would suggest ramping up slowly, increasing annealing time depending on the thickness and unevenness of the piece and possibly reducing the rate of cooling. In the past I have used the basic slump and reduced the ramp rate in seg 1 to 111ºC. Also increased the annealing hold at the end of Seg 2 depending on the thickness. To work that out see the Annealing & cooling table in bottom right of firing schedule. The ramp down is already quite slow at 56ºC so unless your piece is really thick, this should be ok We use these firing schedules. warm-glass.co.uk/kiln-schedules-cms-74

You are so welcome!
Very nice subject, a Mary Cicely Baker style faerie garden. I love beautiful vintage style, i despise modern abstract nightmare subjects.
Thank you, glad you liked it.
Absolutely beautiful!!
Thank you.
Absolutely stunning work. I really want to learn how to do this. Hopefully, I can find a class nearby.
I hope so too!
So many little tricks you taught us! Thank you!
Sharing is caring.
Enjoyed this tutorial
Glad you enjoyed it
The sample color tiles are brilliant! Love how well you explain everything...just beautiful!

Thank you for watching Robert and your kind words. Plenty of new content in the pipeline.
This was great!!! THANK YOU!!!
Thanks for watching Stephen. Plenty more to come too!
@@FiredGlass cant wait!! goin to try this project this week!! looks simple enough for me to handle i think :)
@@stephend7404 awesome, let us know how it turns out please. Shout if you need any more help / advice.
@@FiredGlass Thank you so much :)
Thank you. Great
Thanks Pam.
Great thank you.
Thanks for watching Pam
So informative! Thank you for the heads up on making glass beads. I needed some for alien eyes!
Glad it was useful, we have done a video on making glass beads in case you've not seen it. Thanks for watching.
Thank you found it at the site you recommended in the US. Ordered it already.
Great to hear. Enjoy using it as it does make applying powder very easy and controllable.
Thank you for the video and all the glass choices listed in the description. Excellent class.
Thank you Marie for watching.
What a great video! You have inspired me! Thank you so much 😊
Our pleasure. Thank you for watching.

That’s great and so well explained thank you x
Thanks for watching
Wow! That is stunning!
Thanks Linda
Gosh I wish you would do MWK videos this was great but overwhelming for a beginner with barely any supplies hahah
What are MWK videos?
@@FiredGlass microwave kiln videos hahahah for us poor people that only have small wee mini kilns ... I'm a total noob to glass
We started with microwave kilns but no longer use them or have any in the studio. There’s facebook groups on microwave kilns which are worth joining for information and learning.
Thank you, looking forward to trying this.
Awesome, let us know how you get on. Have fun.
Great presentation thank you!
Cool, thanks for watching Johnella.
I am so interested in how very organized everything is. Love all of your containers!

Thank you. Jewellery bailes are used for hangers, simply glue those on after firing. Typically use 3mm glass.

What thickness of Tekna glass are you using? Nice work
Thanks for watching Bob. A full description of all materials used is in the description below the video. The Tekta is 3mm.
Where can I order the spring glass sifter you showed in the flamingos video please? Not the power Pro, but the one that has the spring that slides along the handle. Thank you. Love your calm teaching style.

Really love this project! Do you put those usually in front of tee lights or votives? Coolsville!
Thank you. We normally suggest LED battery operated tea lights / candles. Minimises risk around naked flames.
Brilliant tuition. Thanku.
Can you please tell me the thickness of glass you are using and where to purchase power pro (wglass) don’t have it.
Many thanks

Hi would this slumping schedule work for a 3mm thick bullseye bowl too ? Many thanks
It should work okay yes. Best to check based on the type of mould you will be using as that can influence the schedule.

This was wonderful! Thank you for sharing your expertise. May I ask what the name of that little square scoop spatula with the tweezers is? I'd love to find me a couple of pair.
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it. They are called Tweezers with shovel. We get ours from WarmGlass here in the UK.
what would be your suggested firing schedule if you wanted to keep textures, slumped over a bowl?
thank you, T 4/2022
First you need to consider the thickness of the piece. You can use a standard slumping schedule but I would suggest ramping up slowly, increasing annealing time depending on the thickness and unevenness of the piece and possibly reducing the rate of cooling.

Here in the USA we have long heard the phrase that "England is a nation of gardeners."
This is very true! LOL we hear that a lot.
Sorry, I did not see a list of materials provided. Can you update, possibly?
Diane, the list of materials is in the description under the video.
