07/13/09 – Combing Glass – Summer is upon us and if it is not hot enough outside for you, heat up the kiln for this sizzling combing technique. This process does involve working in the blistering hot kiln as you rake a stainless steel rod through some molten glass. It is an exciting technique that will have you impatiently waiting for the kiln to go through the annealing and cooling off stages so you can finally see you finished product. There are several safety precautions that need to be adhered to so be sure to read and follow them for a cautious outcome.

07/10/09 – Dust Masks – Dust masks add protection from flying glass or other particles. They cover your nose and mouth area during procedures such as glass cutting. They don’t add the needed protection when doing some of the fusing projects, but they are simple to use and a necessary addition during very basic projects.
I am continuing to update the site with some of the basic technical terms, tools and supplies needed for glass fusing. Although these pages won’t be helpful for those experienced in glass fusing, they are here to assist the individuals who are learning the processes and to help them understand some of the glass fusing equipment.

06/26/09 – Graduation Diploma – This will be the last pattern added to the Scholastic Graduation page for this year. The prize at any graduation is the graduation diploma. Usually these are made out of white glass and I have used Glassline paints to add some details. Make this pattern as pins or fused into some other project for the graduation celebration.

06/25/09 – Graduation Cap -Continuing to add pages to the Scholastic Graduation page. This is a very simple and easy graduation cap to create. Be sure you have a pre-fused dot to add to the top of the tassel before firing this piece. Make the tassel a color that is correct for the graduation school.
