I went back to the hardware store with the intention to find more tile to fuse on. And I’m thrilled with the results! Schedule: 200-1100-30 100-1225-60 9999-1435-10 9999-900-60 100-700-0 OFF
Thanks for this. Your willingness to push boundaries and try new things (and succeed) encourages me (and others too, I expect) to do the same. Thanks, and I look forward to seeing more. P
If you had cut off the unusable edges of the long ceramic tile and turned them over maybe you might have gotten a tree bark imprint. Love your work, thank you for sharing.
Hi 👋 🙂 Idea: Using the arabesque design take the middle lantern out to allow the glass to melt into that shape. Maybe in another one add a separate piece of glass to melt into the empty lantern tile space while the main color melts around it. You could also bring in light in the middle and use the fine frit or powders as flame, smoke, etc. 😃
Excellent, I just tried some small shaped tiles but 3 of the 4 have not yet released from the glass!!! I'd spaced them out a little & fired on a full fire. Have to work out how to get them out safely!!! Great demo too, thank you.
Tile stores will have different sizes. Smaller ones will have more pattern per inch I wonder what that morracan pattern would look like if you slump with a larger “grout” area but still using the thin fire
Jamaison, I love your creativity, it is amazing! Would love to see your Dawn of the Dead one too! By the way, if I might ask, what kind (brand) is that larger kiln and are all the elements in the top or top and sides? Thank you again for being so generous with sharing your fun projects and discoveries! 👍😉
Hi Jamaison. I see that you used papyros over the final tile project. Do you not recommend thin fire on top instead …maybe if I sprayed them with zyp first ? Thanks friend❤
Not generally since slump temperatures are much lower than fusing temperatures used to get the pattern. Can’t upload photos here, but here’s a link to the finished honeycomb piece. (The other one is sold) fourleavesglass.com/Sticky-Situation-Honey-Fused-Glass-Dish-p266191667
Do any ceramic tiles work in a kiln? Just bought a 16” paragon and am experimenting. Have only been doing glass for a year, but would love to get some tiles to work as dams and for getting some texture on glass.
