Never mind the haters, loads more of us who enjoy your videos and learning alongside you. I've not tried F&F but might give it a try now that I've watched your video.
I'm a die-hard Jamaison-Fan! We slurry first and tap with the end of a tool to get all the glass settled into the crevasses. NO bubbles. Also, on really intricate forms with tiny, skinny flourishes, I leave a skim of water over the top of the whole mold. When I ease the frozen pieces out, the surface ice supports the eeny beeny bits and they have been coming out whole! Hurray!
OMG!!!! There's always one. I love seeing you learn. It helps me learn too. Any mistake you make, I'm sure to end up making too so your ideas on how to fix and/or prevent issues along the learning journey help me tremendously. You are extremely creative and so good explaining things. I don't think there is any 'rambling' at all. I enjoy listening to you and how your share your thought process. Don't listen to trolls. They lead sad, pathetic, little lives. Stay calm and fuse on, my friend. ☺ I think you're just AWESOME! 🥰
Oh gosh, you may not consider yourself a teacher, but I have learned so much from your videos. Sure, there are things I love, and others that aren't to my personal taste, but I learn something about techniques and gain inspiration from every video. Thank you very much for "learning" us. 😊 I am grateful the haters didn't deter you.
Please, please, please ignore the complainers. Some people get no joy out of life except for their complaining. I, for one, look forward to your videos. You're full of the joy of life and excitement in what you are doing. I am amongst a large group of people who love what you say and can't wait for the next video to come out.
Ramble on my friend! Your videos are invaluable to us adults who can filter out anything we may not be interested in without having to spew hate. Love you and all your videos!
Welcome to F&F! One thing that helped me get rid of those bubbles is to mix powder and water in a small cup, make a thick slurry, then pour that in the mold. Make adjustments as necessary with raw powder in the mold after pouring. I use a dot painting tool to pack the powder if I have any tight spaces in the mold. My second step in firing is 400dph to 1325 for 20mins in my Skutt Firebox 14 on thinner pieces, I have yet to try thick molds above 6mm. But, going a little hotter will give you a smoother surface. Have fun!
You’re not the last person, as I’ve been holding off on this for years. After finally watching, I have a project for those leaves…. Just what I need. Thanks very much for motivating me into this!
For Mr. Nay Sayer, My perspective is that no one is forcing you to watch! I have learned a lot from Jamaison’s videos and I view it as him saving me a lot of time and money if I decide an application is not for me. Thank you Jamaison for your videos long & short!
Love ❤️ love ❤️ your videos! Like you said, if you do not like the content then you don’t have to watch it. I learn so much from watching your videos and as a complete newbie I’m in awe of your work. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for another great video!! I love watching artists experiment with an audience watching, and willing to share their successes as well as their failures. I enjoy adding f&f elements to my pieces and find it really expands my creative options. I can’t wait to see how you use them in your work! I’ve heard that you should dry the pieces overnight before firing to prevent kiln damage. Don’t know if it’s true or not…
Thanks for letting us learn with you. Ignore the hateful comment. One goofball out of 7,000 plus followers sounds like you’re well loved! Appreciate all you do!
Another great video, Jamaison! You definitely aren't the last to try freeze and fuse! This is another technique I have yet to try. Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Thank you for sharing your F&F first try. I've been wanting to do it, too, and your video has given me some confidence and inspiration! Don't mind the haters...they can't help themselves. The rest of us are deeply appreciative of your generosity!
i agree tabatha is awsome and so generus with her creativity she could quite easaly horde all of it for herself but she shares to teach us all. if i ever end up in her shop ill buy a fortune in stuff jsut to say thanks
Jamison. I just paused the beginning of your tutorial. Yes there are people out there that think they know everything. So let them think that. I am here to learn. Thank you for your awesome detailed videos teaching me your skill, which I would like to learn. Cheers to you and Thank you 😊
I love your videos, they are always fun to watch and very informative. Some people are only happy when they have something to complain about, don't listen to them.
Jamaison please don't worry about what others are says they are just trying to be mean because you are awesome and I'm learning a lot from you. Thank you!!!
Your late? I am just looking into this. Also after I have already bought every mold known to the world. 😂 I have a found item project which calls for small embellishments. As for Mr Man, you handled it better than I would have.
Thanks for your sharing - why do people have to be rude - they should just go away! I have gotten so much information and ideas from watching your videos and also others. Keep up the good work!!
You have inspired me now. That other guy, don’t listen to him. Obviously he’s a know it all and shouldn’t be watching videos from other artists. Keep it up buddy. Love watching you. Thanks Jamaison!!
Great video Jamaison! I still haven’t tried this way of putting all dry powder in and then adding water. But I think that’s a better idea when you want to control color placement. I usually just mix up a slurry in a cup and then spoon it into the mold. I LOVE those little leaves and plumeria flowers. Great elements for future pieces! Thanks for sharing!
I agree with a few of the other comments, don't be bothered by the odd misguided people. I could watch your videos all day 😁 I learn so much by your brilliant explanations. I to, have a collection of unused freeze and fuse moulds that need to be used 😅 Keep up the great work you are doing 👍 🇬🇧
After watching your video I may give f & f another go. Your videos are nearly always informative even if I don’t want to make what you are making. I learn about products and processes that I might not otherwise hear about. I appreciate the time and enthusiasm you bring to this craft, thank you
I am so sorry that some idiot was so negative. Your conversational style is what I enjoy the most. You help me feel less intimidated about trying new things! I love your tips and resources. Just keep being relatable you! BTW, we never stop learning.
Thank you for including your viewers in your "rambling" learning journey. The journey is the key to life, not the destination. Keep going and ignore the "negative nellies". They're just selfish and self-centred. Love your videos. Cheers mate. A fellow glass artist from Down Under.🤭😁🦘🐨
Don't listen to any haters! I love your videos! You are so kind to share for free. I've done a little bit of Freeze and Fuse. It is so interesting. And both my sons went to A&M so I'm going to have to see if I can find some molds like that. Thanks again for all you do!
We can see the mice eyes fine with your free hand camera work . I'm a metal worker and I love to play in my studio . It's very underrated for creativity. Lovely and enjoyable video . Thanks for uploading
I love freeze and fuse. I make all kinds of things and yes I have a ton of molds. By the way we love your videos don’t let the haters get to you, they are just having a bad day. Your videos are wonderful. You make us feel like we are with you doing what you do.
OMG when you mentioned Tabitha, I immediately started laughing so hard because I knew exactly what you were going to do! Hahaha I love her. And you for that matter! I’ve had my kiln for almost 4 years now and I’m still trying to figure out firing schedules! But I have only used it probably a couple dozen times in the 4 years. I learn something from every one of your videos. Thank you for sharing your experiences and your thoughts while on your journey. As you learn, I learn as well! F**k them haters! They can just move along lil’ doggy! 😂❤😊
We love you Jamaison! Haters gonna hate. They have no reason to post on social media except that that’s where we are these days. Thank you for all you do for all of us. I love being influenced by you. ❤️
Hey Jamaison, go ahead and ramble!!! I like it, it's like you're actually right there with us! I don't normally post comments but in this case I just had to. It really saddens me to hear others negative attitudes in an area that should be filled with learning and happiness that comes from that! I like watching your videos, I learn with you! Thanks for what you do :)
Ugh, why do people have to make negative comments. Just move on. I love your videos. I learn while you learn. I love F&F! I just got 4 molds from Joanne fabrics today for $3 each. I'll send pics! I have a drawer full. Ridiculous🤣🙄
I think you’re great you’re showing people what can happen even if it’s good or it’s not good. As far as the bubbles go, I just tap mine up & down against the table and the bubbles come up to the top until there’s no more there.
I love freeze and fuse. I have been doing it for over a year now and it is GREAT! You can make such cool things to go in/on other projects. The only problem is that it can take up an entire weekend. Make, freeze, wait, pop out, make another round, freeze, wait, repeat. repeat, repeat. ;-)
Thanks for all your help and inspiration. Don’t let a grouchy man make you feel bad. You rock! Kathie from Mexico 🐢 and no, I haven’t tried the freeze and fuse yet. I actually just heard about it about a year ago! Wow!
I love your new glass tool, I use one and a toothbrush but the tool is the best,.I add a little water then more powder, seems to cut down on the bubbles.
You sound like me. I can’t do anything little. I’m always all in!!! Thank you for your video, maybe now I’ll go try one of the MANY molds I have for fnf!!!
Wow. I just had to pause the video (and I will go back) to say that I wish that, before anyone took their precious time on earth (not meant to be sarcastic as our time is precious!) to make nasty comments, they would take that time to do something positive to make the world better. A random act of kindness can be quick and easy and creates goodness in the world. Oh…. And I just noticed that Texas A&M Mould! I guess it’s time to make something for my Aggie! Back to the video and thank you for providing free content. I’ve watched it all and appreciate your sharing your knowledge and ideas.
I love your videos and I love that you talk through your thought process - it helps me to learn and I appreciate it! So I bought that new glass tool for my studio too.. my friend was here when I ordered it and when I typed in what I was trying to find - we laughed so hard at all of the results! lol - but it works! I saw a video and I don't remember who from, they do just a small amount of slurry and use that to fill the bottom of the mold and then do the dry powder over top.I haven't tried that way yet- but it sounds like it could work. Thank you again for the video :)
Unfortunately Jamison there are always going to be haters. I enjoy your rambling and have learned many things from your videos. I feel I too have a talent for doing fused glass pieces/art but there is no way I would do TH-cam. Not because I don’t have talent but because, to me, it’s just not worth the hassle and the not so nice people out there. Keep ‘em coming Jamaican. There are many who enjoy what you have to offer on your many journeys into the world of fused glass.
Thank you! I’ve wanted to do this but the idea of a frozen think in my kiln seemed wrong😂😂😂. The detail on your pieces is amazing! Nice first round!!! Now I need to buy more powder colors so I can give this a try😃
I was watching a channel of a glass worker out of Canada, she had better luck with fine details by placing the powders in the detail area wetting just that freezing for 30 minutes and then doing the base colors and then finishing the freeze
Oh Jamaison, you are NOT the last, I am, lol! I have known about it for almost a decade, but have been terrified of it and afraid of residual water blowing up my kiln, lol! (totally ridiculous!). So I feel ya. BUT, I am getting closer to doing it too. Thank you so much for your time and energy, you have a great channel and just ignore the ignorant! Just keep doing you and let others.... (you get it). Big hugs! ❣p.s. dying laughing on the addition ("teeth rattler") to your tool box. Brilliant!
I always use a toothpick type tool to mix the slurry well at the half way point and then just use my finger to tap the sides. I’ve never had bubbles. Also, do do different colors, you can do one section, freeze and add the rest of the powder.
Ok….I have been wanting to want to tell you that your video gave me ideas for one of the largest commissions I have done. Your videos are fun to watch and inspiration can come from anywhere if your mind is open. Thank you for having fun and sharing.
You are not the last! I am. Thanks for this video, very helpful. I like the meandering. Some vid's move so fast, you have to slow them down or add meth to your coffee, just to keep up. You vid is easy-going and fun to watch. Cheers from Mineral Bluff, Ga. ja
Forget the grouch! I'm in awe of your videos, keep up the great work. Glad you like the mice suggestion. I also like doing FNF on thinfire and I think it may help prevent the distortion of the crosses and letters. I seem to get fewer bubbles when I add a bit of water to the mold first, but only if you're not going for color layers.
You are doing just fine. I appreciate the videos as I find your experiences helpful in my own glass journey.. I also share you issue of purchasing endless amounts of things we want to try! 😂 I go all in...6 months later...lol
Hey there! Where do I find your March on Etsy☺️ Thank you! Love your videos. I’m new in glass and learning a lot. I can’t find your shattered glass videos. I started watching and got out now I can’t find it 😔 please tell me where I find it.
My merch is on Amazon… you can find that here: Check out this page from jamaisonschuler www.amazon.com/shop/jamaisonschuler?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_aipsfshop_5FA5HYVRPF991PM7ECA4&language=en_US I’m sorry, I’m not sure what you mean by shattered glass videos?
As usual, great video. Don't change anything you do for negative people. Ignore them, they want to know they irritated you. I cut the tips of different size straws at an angle to use to fill molds. You can get pretty detailed with the coffee stirrers. I fill mine same as you, but tap the mold with the heavy end of scissors to get the air at. You have to find what works for you. I will say I use COE 96, I could get a fight going if I said it caused less bubbles. 🙃 Looking forward to the next video or see you at Lunch with a Glass Artist. OOHH next time someone wants to sell their (COE 96) studio, direct them to me!😃
I've been using silicone molds to make glass molds. I make a positive with Durham's wood putty. Then I take ceramic clay and make a mold of the positive, leaving enough room for enough glass to fill the mold to get a large enough positive after it's fired. The Durham's putty will become brittle when fired to bisque (06) or higher. It comes out of the ceramic mold with a little coaxing. I then coat the inside of the mold with kiln wash (good for about 3 firings). I've had great success with 90 coe in a microwave kiln. But any higher coe would have to be done in a glass kiln or with a cone 19 (or 17) in a ceramic kiln depending on how hard the glass is. That's why I experiment ! I would love to be able to send you a few pieces that I've made.
Never mind the haters, loads more of us who enjoy your videos and learning alongside you. I've not tried F&F but might give it a try now that I've watched your video.
I'm a die-hard Jamaison-Fan!
We slurry first and tap with the end of a tool to get all the glass settled into the crevasses. NO bubbles.
Also, on really intricate forms with tiny, skinny flourishes, I leave a skim of water over the top of the whole mold. When I ease the frozen pieces out, the surface
ice supports the eeny beeny bits and they have been coming out whole! Hurray!
Good idea!

You're full of the joy of life and excitement in what you are doing. I am amongst a large group of people who love what you say and can't wait for the next video to come out.
I held out for years. Now I do it. I love explaining the technique while I’m doing shows. The chemistry blows my mind. And my customers.
Ramble on my friend! Your videos are invaluable to us adults who can filter out anything we may not be interested in without having to spew hate. Love you and all your videos!

I premix my slurry in a cup as well, but still use the vibrator on the bottom of the mold.
I think you are awesome. I like your voice and I love what you are teaching.

I’m getting tempted! Thanks
I love your ramblings! Thank you for taking us along on your journey
Love what you do and appreciate you taking the time and effort to make the videos. You ramble away, ìt makes it more real and not contrived!
Great video Jamaison! I still haven’t tried this way of putting all dry powder in and then adding water. But I think that’s a better idea when you want to control color placement. I usually just mix up a slurry in a cup and then spoon it into the mold. I LOVE those little leaves and plumeria flowers. Great elements for future pieces! Thanks for sharing!

Just getting into F&F. Always wondered how to do details. Love this video 14:10
I love your rambling! Your videos just wouldn’t be the same without it. Haven’t done any f&f for ages
Great job!

Some people are just unhappy and therefore probably don't enjoy life at all. Love your videos! 💗
Nice video and Freeze & Fuse work. My favorites were the leaves.
Thank you I love your video. I have learn some great ideas.
Lucky you being able to get buy outs not so lucky here in NC. I still look everywhere though.
You’re an inspiration!
We love you Jamaison! Haters gonna hate. They have no reason to post on social media except that that’s where we are these days. Thank you for all you do for all of us. I love being influenced by you. ❤️

i look forward to seeing what u do with this
I always use a toothpick type tool to mix the slurry well at the half way point and then just use my finger to tap the sides. I’ve never had bubbles. Also, do do different colors, you can do one section, freeze and add the rest of the powder.

Ok….I have been wanting to want to tell you that your video gave me ideas for one of the largest commissions I have done. Your videos are fun to watch and inspiration can come from anywhere if your mind is open. Thank you for having fun and sharing.
Aw, awesome!
Good attitude points and videos.
You are not the last! I am. Thanks for this video, very helpful. I like the meandering. Some vid's move so fast, you have to slow them down or add meth to your coffee, just to keep up. You vid is easy-going and fun to watch. Cheers from Mineral Bluff, Ga. ja
Forget the grouch! I'm in awe of your videos, keep up the great work.
Glad you like the mice suggestion. I also like doing FNF on thinfire and I think it may help prevent the distortion of the crosses and letters. I seem to get fewer bubbles when I add a bit of water to the mold first, but only if you're not going for color layers.
Thanks for the tips!
Still cool to see process you keep going 🫶🏼
Love your videos! Keep up good work!
You are doing just fine. I appreciate the videos as I find your experiences helpful in my own glass journey.. I also share you issue of purchasing endless amounts of things we want to try! 😂 I go all in...6 months later...lol
Hey there! Where do I find your March on Etsy☺️ Thank you! Love your videos. I’m new in glass and learning a lot. I can’t find your shattered glass videos. I started watching and got out now I can’t find it 😔 please tell me where I find it.
My merch is on Amazon… you can find that here: Check out this page from jamaisonschuler www.amazon.com/shop/jamaisonschuler?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_aipsfshop_5FA5HYVRPF991PM7ECA4&language=en_US
I’m sorry, I’m not sure what you mean by shattered glass videos?
You could use an electric sander. Also, what about thinning out some of the firing friendly glue to use instead of straight water?
As usual, great video. Don't change anything you do for negative people. Ignore them, they want to know they irritated you. I cut the tips of different size straws at an angle to use to fill molds. You can get pretty detailed with the coffee stirrers. I fill mine same as you, but tap the mold with the heavy end of scissors to get the air at. You have to find what works for you. I will say I use COE 96, I could get a fight going if I said it caused less bubbles. 🙃 Looking forward to the next video or see you at Lunch with a Glass Artist. OOHH next time someone wants to sell their (COE 96) studio, direct them to me!😃
THANKS FOR A GREAT VIDEO
I've been using silicone molds to make glass molds. I make a positive with Durham's wood putty. Then I take ceramic clay and make a mold of the positive, leaving enough room for enough glass to fill the mold to get a large enough positive after it's fired. The Durham's putty will become brittle when fired to bisque (06) or higher. It comes out of the ceramic mold with a little coaxing. I then coat the inside of the mold with kiln wash (good for about 3 firings). I've had great success with 90 coe in a microwave kiln. But any higher coe would have to be done in a glass kiln or with a cone 19 (or 17) in a ceramic kiln depending on how hard the glass is. That's why I experiment ! I would love to be able to send you a few pieces that I've made.
Sounds like a very interesting process!
I wonder if you layer water and powder more frequently and vibrate on the thicker pieces to eliminate bubbles.
