glass to round them slightly and
it will make for a nicer appearance.

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: Place on to Mold and into Kiln &
Kiln Firing Process-Slump: Using Fingers around outer edges
of the fusible glass project or better yet wear latex
gloves, pick up and place the project onto the prepared
mold and then place it into the kiln.
Place a thin layer of Fuser's Glue on the surface
and snap the white zig zig pieces and
position in desired pattern. Allow to dry so glass
will not move. (you could do this above for full fuse,
we liked the texture to remain so we are adding the zig
zag glass just prior to slumping)
Note: Place
mold on kiln post.
