Back to Basics: Kiln Firing Enamelling Tutorial

Back to Basics: Kiln Firing Enamelling Tutorial by Melissa Keskinkilinc and Teresa Kent. We are UK based enamellers and have created an enamelling tutorial which shows you how to enamel onto copper. The video demonstrates how to clean the copper, apply different enamel powders, kiln fire the enamel on copper, and apply surface decoration using glass stringers or threads and millefiori. If you w...
You should be wearing a mask. Don’t breathe glass powder.
amazing! i love this and im a newbie wanting to work with copper and im just about to buy the small Prometheus kiln yays! thank you
You don’t pickle the copper first?
I’m starting this class in college in 2 days- excited!
I don’t need another crafty hobby but this is intriguing!!!!
Do I need a shelf in my kiln?
What a great video, very helpful indeed for someone like me who is finding their feet with enamelling
I've watched many things about copper enamelling but yours is the best...
Love this.. Can you tell me about the firing schedule? I'm hoping to do a similarly sized bowl for the first time, and can't seem to find firing schedules for pate de verre.. Thanks!
Why don't you melt the thick stringers first and then add the thinner ones ,rather than melt all together?
Well done both! Your video was great. Very informative and useful - thank you 😊
Thanks and I learned a lot. What what you do if you are making very small copper pieces as far as a trivet? I have about 40 tiny hearts and can't think of a good way to sift onto them and then move them to ?? whatever kind of trivet? Appreciate any advice.
Great work! Is it possible to enamel a wooden bowl at home? I’ve seen some in sainsburys on mango wood and would love to try it!
Hello...why have you sealed the window off?
Hello. Love your videos they are so helpful. I wondered if someone could help answer a question. I've got an efco 135 kiln. What controller should I buy? There's one for about £100 (9950191 EFCO TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER) or one for about £400 ( 4300008 TEMPERATURE REGULATOR TRP008). Thankyou :)
Was the kiln at 800 Fahrenheit?
This is filmed in the UK. They use Celsius, as does The Rest of the World. There are some third world countries that still use Fahrenheit...
Hello! It’s in Celsius rather than Fahrenheit ☺️
Awesome 🥰❤️Thank you so much. Very enlightening 🙏
Is your glass wet?
Thank you ladies, most enjoyable.
I rather like this video because it's so much more like home enellimg than many videos. It's more realistic for the hobbist.
That was great. Thanks very much. Can you recommend a good supplier of glass powder and blanks. I'm just about to teach this to some of my Yr 11 pupils for their GCSE DT coursework.
Hello! I’m sure at this point you have found some suppliers but I’d recommend looking up: Vitrum Signum for enamels, Harrison and Harrison for copper shapes. Have fun!
I have just done my first enamelling I was so pleased with the results thanks for your help
Thank you that was so informative. I have a kiln but have not even switched it on yet I can hardly wait to get started.😁
Good information. You two are just lovely spirits. Listening and watching you two work makes me happy. Thanks for a beautiful space! ♥️🌈
Thanks it is a great video but I thought enamel was dangerous for your lungs (glass particles) and you should be wearing masks?
That was super relaxing to watch 👌
Thank you! Very informative!
Hi, I would like to know at what temp(more or less) one fires black enamel, and at what temp blue enamel? Thanks
Thank you ladies - just got my first kit and can’t wait to get cracking 😊
I'm so glad I came across this. All my questions answered with the - dont do this or that will happen.... - bits.
Great video ladies to say it was your first very impressed keep up the good work
Love your videos. Such pretty pieces
In at about 780. For how long
Thanks for the video, am just starting to try enamelling and watching you both has given me the confidence to try. Thanks
Assuming your kiln temp is in Celsius at 800 as common in UK, which converts to Fahrenheit at 1472 as found in the US.
Yes ☺️ sorry! We didn’t clarify that but yes! You are correct
Thank you, actually felt confident after this. So many books and tutorials are very unclear. This was great
Oh I’m so glad that it’s been helpful ☺️
Are you working with Celsius or Fahrenheit?
Hello! We are working in Celsius 👍
Hello, first of all thank you very much. Question: How do you know how long to leave the work in the klim?
Hello! You leave it in for about 2 minutes, but sometimes less so keep your eye on it as you can always open the kiln door, take a peek and then close it back up
Super, learned a lot, feel like I could give it a go now. Thanks!
that was great for beginnerss
Thank you!
I like those.
wonderful thank you
Great video, I tried that one time but when it was cooling the glass kept cracking and breaking off. The copper was about 8mm thick. Any ideas how to avoid that? Thank you.
Hi Bill, What did you try specifically? I use around 0.8mm too so it shouldn't be the thickness. If the enamel is on too thickly though that can cause to cracking, or if you take it out underfired. The best way to go is thin layers built up rather than a thick layer. I hope that helps! Melissa
@@MelissaKeskinkilinc thank you I was trying to enamel a belt buckle. It was 8mm thick not 0.8mm
If the expansion coefficient of the enamel / copper does not match. the enamel loosens from the copper when it cools down. Copper and enamel must behave the same expansion coefficient at fire and cooling down.
Having two people talking is very irritating. I gave up watching well before the end. Also from a safety point of view, having a rug where you can drop hot metal onto it is not a good idea.
Hello, I'm sorry that you did not find our video helpful. There are lots of other tutorials online that are available to watch. I hope you find something that appeals to you.
I loved that that human side of it. No scripted perfection here, just us -
Thank you ladies. That's one of the clearest tutorials I've seen. Enjoyable too.
Thank you for the feedback! Really appreciate it!
Thank you so much for this video. I used to enamel years ago but had forgotten the process.
It's always good to remind yourself! Happy to help!
Thank you! That was great. Wish you had more videos! :)
It's something I am working on... Stay tuned 😉
Brilliant learnt so much in 18 mins xxxx.
Thank you for the feedback! Really appreciate it :)
I love your accents too, by the way. ;)
Thanks!
Awesome video ladies... I learned lots! Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge!
Thank you! Happy to help ☺️
