hi everybody,
you all can not imagine how I study your chats overhere on the buletin board, and learn from them overhere, in Israel.
I am grateful for any question asked and any answer - given.
Right now I have a problem with glueing together a fused piece, that broke. It is very fragile, the kiln is too small to accomodate this piece (I did it in a class in Scotland). UV wo'nt work - because at the broken edges the glass is opaque. The epoxy will get yellow. What shall I do, then??
I'll try and attach a photo of this piece as if it is one - but believe me, it is broken
I'll be very gratefull for an answer

There are some water clear epoxies available. Loctite makes a couple. Look for the -CL suffix on their part number. I don't know what is available overseas though.

I am waiting for an answer from loctite telling me who is their distributor here - so I'll be able to get the glue :D
