Whenever I fuse glass together in my kiln, I put the pieces of glass on a kiln shelf. The shelf must be prepared with a separator, called kiln wash, so the glass doesn’t stick to the shelf when it melts. Sort of like flouring your pastry board before rolling out a pie crust. What you…
When I first started glass fusing, there were a lot of expenses getting set up. Initially, I bought some products because they were more economical than others. Kiln shelf paper was one of them. I reasoned that there really couldn’t be that much of a difference between them. Or could there be?
Since starting in glass fusing a little over a year ago, I have not had the opportunity to be around other glass fusers. Most of what I have learned is from books, and trial and error. Online bulletin boards like www.warmglass.com can be a good source of information. But sometimes, you really just need to talk to someone.
