DROP OUT MOLDS |
A few items to keep in mind when using drop out
molds
- Fuse two or three layers of
glass into your "blank" that will be slumped The thickness
will determine how deep a vase you can create
- The blank should be close to the
size of the drop out ring, BUT NOT LARGER. If it is even
slightly oversize, the excess will drape over the outer edge of
the ring and make removal impossible
- Keep an eye on the progress of
your slump. If the glass heats too quickly, you will get results
with paper thin walls. If left too long, all of the glass will
flow to the kiln shelf below, making an interesting blob.
