man both platters would make super sweet roll up panels for the end result of a three dimensional vase. gorgeous work for sure.
I’ve long wanted to collaborate with someone on a rollup and I agree, that could look awesome! But so hard to find someone using Bullseye in furnaces.
Love the platters. I love how you show how to make beautiful pieces out of things that have not worked so well. The new pieces are so unique. Thank you
Nice pieces, they turned out great. Now I know what to do with my failures. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful piece Jamaison! The red is gorgeous!
Greetings from Arizona. I made a "handy dandy little chopper" and it changed my life...well, maybe just a little bit ;) Thank you for sharing your videos. Love them!
Beautiful ❣️
BLESS YOU🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 You answered a question I had about fiber paper. I don't have cold working tools and wanted to know about spaying the fiber paper with zyp.
Yes, it can help!
Thanks for your videos! Love them and always learn something. I've got a similar scrap melt in my kiln right now, using the chopped up pieces of a disappointing project as well - same issue - big bubble that ruined it. Can't wait to see how the scrap melt looks and will slump it if it's a winner. Thanks again! Keep 'em coming!
Good luck! I hope it turns out great for you!!!
im very curious about firing the iridized pieces with two or more layers of irid facing up and then irid facing down right on top of it. ill bet you could get some really cool effects that way.
I might have to do some experimenting… in the past when I’ve “trapped” irid under a cap of some sort, I’ve been generally disappointed with it as it loses too much luster and sparkle.
can u go into more detail about your formers, like where did u buy them, also are they sitting on/in something like fiber board? How big are they? and can u show a brief on using the hand sanders ..like how much or little u are doing that..thank u
Watch back through some of my old videos and look at the video descriptions for links to certain products and suppliers. You’ll find many of your answers there. Thanks!!
Beautiful… how do you break up your unsuccessful fully fused pieces? Just a hammer? Thanks again 👍🐢
I have a tool called a “frit piston” and some frit sorting screens - you can find these at many online glass retailers or people have made their own. But frankly, a hammer would work too!
One other question Jamaison; do you know the approximate depth or weight of the glass that you would use in a mold such as this? Or better put, how would I calculate the glass weight for a frame that is 8.5 x 12.5 inches? I have been wanting to try this technique, but I am afraid of over or underfilling. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! And thank you for posting these videos, they are a treasure trove of information!
You might find the glass casting calculator found here to be helpful. Tinker around with the different calculators and see what you can come up with based on dimensions of the mold and the depth of the glass that you want to achieve. fusedglass.org/tools/
Thank you for sharing all your projects, so much to learn! I wonder why I see a skull when the light reflects onto the piece after the first fire 😅
Thanks for taking the time to record and share this. Really inspiring!
as a glassblower i must say that bonus platter turned out amazing, and id dearly love to use those colors bullseye comes up with in furnace work. alas furnace glass is 96. but way to persevere man they both came out fantastic
I’m wondering is that luminescent glass and if so doesn’t it have to covered with thin fir to keep its color and effect or fired face down. Love your videos..
No, I only use Bullseye glass, and this was some rainbow irid glass. I think it’s less finicky.
Love this. Thank you, so encouraging
As usual I learned something. Love all your videos. Thanks for taking the time to make them.
I just found this video. Thanks so much. I'm curious why the process temperature (1520) is so much higher when frit is placed over sheet than for the all frit project (1480) in a different video.
Keep in mind that every kiln is different and so you may not want to always follow my schedules. In the course of time, I’ve used different schedules for different reasons: I’ve been making projects (and videos) in two different kilns so my schedules may be different for that reason, I may have other projects in the same firing so I’m trying to find a schedule that will work for all pieces, I’ve gotten smarter over time, etc…
These are lovely & I'm just about to start having a go with my previous failures. I don't yet have any clear powder can you share what the code reference is please? I'm guessing it's Bullseye.
Thank you so much 😄
Yes, Bullseye clear powder, 1101-0008. It’s explained and linked here: www.bullseyeglass.com/methods-ideas/quicktip-use-bullseye-clear-powder-to-fix-surface-flaws.html
@@JamaisonSchuler thank you so much, I find your videos really clear & helpful.... Keep them coming!!!!!
Hey Jamaison, as usual, I really enjoy your videos, but something really jumped out to me on this one...you know you have a floating skeleton head reflecting on your pieces... 😂, I found that quite amusing. Keep up the wonderful posting! P.S. now I want one of those chopping jars! 😁
LOL!!! I had to go back and watch - I see what you mean! 😂
I came to comments to say that!!! It appears as you pull out the piece and look at it from different angles looks like Jack Skellington !! 😂😱😱😱
I just started to use scraps in a dam mold. I love both projects you made with the orange and white glass and the red iridescent glass. BEAUTIFUL! Do you always use Bullseye 90 COE or can 96 COE be used?
96 glass could certainly be used, but if I’m not mistaken, I think the target anneal hold temperature is different so you might need to adjust your schedules accordingly.
also you can add two or four short steps fluttering the kiln temp once or twice by 50 degrees to squeeze bubbles to the surface and make them pop. works handily with projects that incorporate powder and chunks and so forth.
👍🏼
Jamaison - I love your videos - I have saved all that I could find on youtube. I have signed up to be a subscriber, including entering the 2 little dits on either side of the bell, but I haven't received any notifications of videos being posted. When I go into any of your videos it indicates that I am a subscriber - any thoughts?
Gosh, I really don't know what to tell you to do differently. Perhaps this would help? th-cam.com/video/pNU1P-lMKa8/w-d-xo.html
I tried it and hopefully it'll work - thanks so much for responding so quickly and thanks for the terrific videos
Both platters are so pretty! I'm not a glass worker, but I was wondering can you use bottles out of your recycle bin for the scraps?
Hi there! Bottle glass is tough: it often doesn’t melt the same, and you can never guarantee compatibility between different bottles as the glass may come from different manufacturers.
Thanks for sharing - what a clever chap you are! Lovely results! BTW for some reason TH-cam quotes me with my son's name it's actually Kathleen here!
Another winner! Great use of scrapped project glass and clever ways to conceal the tekta lines while making the dish food safe.
Beautiful ❤❤ love your l bracket clamp set up for collecting bigger pieces
❤
Curious what thickness did your pieces ended up being? I have a round Patty Gray mold and put transparent glass in which I fused. Turned out great but the lady who fuses my work said it was too thick to slump into a mold? You did? Is she pulling my leg?
I don’t have these anymore but they were probably 8-9mm? Thicker than standard 6mm but not too thick to slump. Just go low and slow!
@@JamaisonSchuler Hi Jamaison.... new to fusing and having a ProStart Skutt wired up this weekend. I have watched many of your videos. I'll mic the thickness tonight. I use a glass studio to fire my work at the present time and she has done quite well with my work BUT she is very opinion aided...lol. I asked her to slump it and she snapped back and said it was too thick!...lol. But I saw your video on this and I said hey I'm going to give it a try. I'd like to slump my 7-1/2" round scrap into a bowl but she won't do it. I guess I'll try it when I get accustom to my kiln.
@@diggingeverydaydean8080 good luck! Just ramp slowly 200 or even 150°F per hour to about 1200, hold for 10 min or so (no problem opening the kiln to check progress along the way - maybe it’s already slumped at 1180? Maybe 10 min at 1200 isn’t enough?). Try to find your mold or one similar in Bullseye’s suggested firing schedules and use that as a guide. Then anneal extra long for your thickness and ramp back down slowly to room temp. You should be fine!

@@JamaisonSchuler .... Sounds great.. I think when I feel comfortable with our new kiln I'll give it a try. I'm making up my test tiles now so I understand my kiln firing temps and results... The scrap Patty Gray piece actually looks really pretty all by itself as I used all Bullseye transparent scraps so I might make it as glass art with a Dave Hardell stand... Thank you Jam... you rock... I have to feel comfortable about programming my Prostart too....lol.
Beautiful. I plates. I now have the nipper gadget too, and it is working well for cutting up rods. Thanks for the video and showing the details for the nipper tool.
where did you get the mold that you poured the scrap into and fired......love this
Links are in the video description. Laurie Spray’s supplies are outstanding!
What is the difference between Tekta and regular clear Bullseye glass. The pieces look beautiful.
I’m not a Bullseye expert - and I just use standard Tekta - so I can’t speak from different firing experience either. But I found this old string that might be helpful? Bullseye is always very responsive if you reach out to them. www.bullseyeglass.com/forum/index/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3803
@@JamaisonSchuler Thank you very much, it helped me a lot. The Bullseye clear seem to flow better than the 96system. Did some test runs in a microwave kiln before using my big kiln. The nugget technique worked extremely well, even for pendants. Thanks again.
Another great video ! Both projects turned out absolutely beautiful. Thanks again for sharing, it is much appreciated !!
So beautiful. I love all of your experiments!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I look forward to your videos. I learn something every time. Thank you!!
May I suggest using a dremel for finishing work
What did you line the edges with and the thickness please.
It’s a 1/8” fiber paper strip, sold in rolls here: bonnydoonfusedglasstools.com/18-fiber-paper-strips It works perfectly! You can see it in some previous videos too.
Thank you very much.
Thank you, Jamaison. I love how enthusiastic you are when a piece turns out the way you wanted.
Fantastic pieces Jameson. 2nd one especially!
Lovely pieces. You are amazing!
Thanks again Jamaison. Great projects!
Wicked smart, thank you sir.
Where do i go to get your firing schedule? And do you weigh your glass before filling the mold or just eyeball it?
I sometimes weigh but just eyeballed these. I always include firing schedules, glass used, and other info (like a source for molds) in each video’s description.
Show me the kiln please Sir.
absolutely AWESOME!
These are beautiful! What grit diamond pad do you use to get rid of the Tekta lines?
Thanks! I’m not shy about it since it’s going back in for a full fuse so I think I use a 200 grit? Maybe even 120?
Is all tekta clear food safe?
Tekta is not listed on this list of Bullseye glass with concerns: www.bullseyeglass.com/is-bullseye-glass-food-safe.html
Thanks for the help
Thank you! Looking forward to giving this a shot. Very well executed and gorgeous.
Good luck!!!!
@@JamaisonSchuler Thanks!
Looks like the both turned out great! Can you put a link to the former and the slump mold you used and/or the size. I tried to reclaim some glass from a piece that went wrong in a dam mold I have. It came out ok but after seeing your 2 projects today I like the look of the plate and slump mold you used. :-) I see the slump mold link not the former link. Thank You!
Hi there! On Laurie’s Bonny Doon site, look for the mold: M102 Rectangle Server - 8” x 12”. Under the description and photo, she points you to the matching stainless form.
@@JamaisonSchuler thank you ... have a awesome day.
You too and good luck!
Love your videos!
Beautiful colors! 👍😁
I just love your videos!!
Beautiful piece
I have a question as I am new to this. When you say you put clear powder on do you just do a thin layer covering the entire back side of the piece and then refire ? Because your piece is absolutely beautiful
