Nobody's mentioned flying into Rochester. It's an easy and beuatiful drive from Rochester, NY to Corining. It takes about an hour if I remember correctly.

Thanks for the input. I'll try the alcohol. What temp do you think it would take to break the glue down in the kiln? I tried 350 F for 4 min. Now after trying to soak it in hot water, I wonder if I made it stronger. I put it in the dishwasher with the heated water option on ... still stuck. I guess ...

Thanks Barbara, I tried that. I must not have had the water hot enough. I didn't want to crack the bowl the globs are attached to.

Unglueing

Sorry if this is a double post.

Does anyone know how to unglue UV glue? I did it before by heating in the kiln, but forgot what temperature.

Thanks,

I have three JenKen kilns and love them. I think they were a great value and the support is exceptional. I'm not well versed in other brands however.

I have an oval 13 and agree with Judy that you just got extra parts. I know you will enjoy your kiln.

Your work is wonderful. Where is it showing? Please tell me it's on public display somewhere. I'd love to see it. I can look at it and almost taste the color!

Why devit on top and not on shelf side?

We just ran some strip tests on various glasses. The devit shows on the top side but even the worst cases were shiny on the shelf/paper side. Can someone explain the mechanics of what's happening here on the shelf side? It's a standard shelf with the new BE thinfire between it and the glass. I've re...

:roll: Be careful with your criticism. Chances are that those pieces are in the gallery for political reasons rather than merit. They could belong to a relative or dear friend of the gallery owner. They should make your work stand out but if it bothers you take you work elsewhere.
