paper or cardboard.

If possible, leave the kiln sit unopened
until the next day so your project has had plenty of
time to anneal back to room temperature.
|
Step 4: Prepare for Slump Process -
Take the kiln shelf out of the kiln. Using the kiln posts, set the kiln washed mold in the middle of the kiln. Place the
prepared fused project on the mold and slump fuse.

at any temperature.

Step
5: Adding Night Light Clip
-
If possible, leave the kiln sit unopened until the
next day so your project has had plenty of time to
anneal back to room temperature and it is ready to use.
Use abrasives on any rough edges you need to smooth.
NOTE:
If using a glue on bail to hang the glass, clean
glass and dry.
Attach
the glass
hanger finding to the top backside of the
glass precut using the Triolyse glue. Maximum strength is reached after 6
hours.
