Firing Schedules

Full Fuse Normal Small Project

 

  1. *600 – 1510- 10
  2. Full – 1050 – 10*
  3. Full*a – 850 – 10*b
  4. 100 – 100 – OFF

 

  1. *If you have a thick or multi-layer project, you will want to slow this down from 600 to 300, then up to 1500. 
  2. *If you have a large, thick, or multi-layer project you will want to hold your project longer. I hold my trays for 45 minutes to 1 hour..
  3. a*Again, depending upon thickness or layering, you will want to slow the process down from a full drop in temperature to anywhere from 50-85 degrees per hour to 850.
  4. b* Again, hold longer for more complicated, thicker projects. 

 

Float Glass Mosaic

Full Fuse Mosaic Sheet- 1 Layer 

 

600- 1510- 10

Full- 1050 – 10

Full- 850 – 10

100- 100 – 10

 

Full Fuse Mosaic On Cut Outs (Glassy Cut Shapes)

 

600- 1510- 10

Full- 1050- 10*

Full- 850- 10* **

*hold longer for thicker projects

** come down slower for thicker projects

 

Slump Mosaic Pieces

 

300 – 1300 – 10

Full- 1050 – 30*a

Full- 850- 20*b&c

100- 100- off

*a- 30 minutes or longer depending on the size & thickness of the mold you’re using

*b- Slower than the full 9999 depending on the size & thickness. We will slow this down as love as 50 degrees per hour

*c- Hold here longer also if it’s a thicker piece or on a metal mold.

 

NOTE: Metal molds hold their temp longer than glass so you could shock you glass and break it.

Tack Fuse Mosaic Normal Small Project

 

  1. *600 – 1410 – 11
  2. Full – 1050 – 10*
  3. *Full – 850 – 10

 

Same info as above for ramping up or annealing down. Temps change with the size, thickness, and multi-layers of your project. Multi-layers include mosaic too.

Slump/Drape Temps

 

  1. *300 – 1300 – 10
  2. *Full – 1050 – 10
  3. *Full – 850 – 10
  4. 100 – 100 – OFF

 

Again, be careful with ramping your temp too high in the start or dropping your temps too fast. If you are slumping on or over metal- slow it way down to avoid metal & glass losing temp at a different rate. 

 

NOTE: Metal molds hold their temp longer than glass which can shock your glass and break it.
