Yeah, Charlie, that's what I read too. I was wondering if anyone had experienced it though... Client purchased color. The whole pallet of choices and, of course, she picks the hardest color. I am thinking about maybe bringing the billets to 1000 (in a porcelain cup) and then slamming them in a glory...

Gaffer 300 Opaline: Have I shot myself in the foot?
I am about to cast some lotus flowers with Gaffer 300 Opaline. I have billets. Am I only going to get an opal white out of it? Anyone with experience with this stuff? Here are some links from ocr: http://www.glasscolor.com/catalog/colors/displayPage2b.asp?prodNumber=G-300&prodTable=Colors_Gaffer...

There is one college w/ glass classes and The Glass Society of Ireland but I can't find it on the web. I found it about a month ago. Also one thing that I think would be interesting is http://www.crystallotus.co.uk/ my friend, alva, just took a class from him and said it was great. Plus, I suspect t...

Also food grade spray silicon. whatever you chose, experiment w/ a smaller one to be sure that a) it works b) it doesn't atttack the latex or leave marks. I think any of those things will work because plaster doesn't really want to grab latex. I believe the release is just insurance for those tricky...

Have you used it on stones before? 8 hours seems short. Put in one color glass run 12 hours, put in another color, 12 more hours. After doing this every 12 hours for 48 hours you should have four colors in there. run 12 more hours and then take them out. This will give you a range to look at. There ...

Also try HIS glassworks http://www.hisglassworks.com/ , Bob stephens has very good customer service and he may have a source for smaller blades. Chipping or blow out will always be a problem. The thinner the blade the less chipping But then the blade is more delicate... Also some people use tape on ...

This is where what you want (the program) and reality (the capabilities of your kiln) collide. Similar things happen all the time, say between an architect and a contractor or an engineer and a mechanic... I don't see any side elements in the picture of Evenheat 14-6. Is it just the one in the top? ...
