Hi Linda. The square stainless rods, or tubes actually since their hollow, came from a local metal dealer. My local hardware didn't have any that size, though you may have more luck. Hope this helps.

@@RocketRoseArt To build on this question, what tool do you use to cut? And what gauge (approximately) is the stainless? I have a hack saw and a manual mitre saw I use to cut my 1/2" zinc for stained glass. Is that good enough to cut these formers? Many thanks for these wonderful and informative videos.

Have you ever tried to fuse a woven piece on to a thin layer of clear so that you could then slump it into a square plate mold and the end piece would be solid with no holes between strips of glass? Would that work? Or would you lose all definition of the weaving effect?
@RocketRoseArt
Жыл бұрын
Hi. With a normal slump you shouldn't lose much definition. But it will lose it if you take it higher so the woven piece tacks to the back sheet of glass. I haven't tried what you are asking. Worth a test to see it will stick enough during the slump. Not sure what you mean by end piece? Do you mean like a border around the woven piece?

As always I learn so much from your videos. I'm actually playing with weaves right now so your video was timely. And I learned a trick from someone else about making my own bars to do the initial slump of the glass for the weave that I thought I would pass along to you and your other fans. I used float glass (picture frame glass) cut into 1/2" strips and glue 3 together with Elmer's glue. Used papyrus before adding my glass. They worked great for my first try but weren't quite tall enough (~7mm). About to try again after adding another piece to make them about 5/8" tall (~9mm). Fingers crossed it will worked better this time.

Hi Carmen. Funny you mention float glass. I also use float glass as it has a higher melt and slump temp than art glass. With mine, I tack fuse the float glass strips together. Works fine, but over time they do start to slump themselves. One solution is to turn them over each time. Good thing is you can use old window glass. Nice and cheap. Down side is that after a while they do slump themselves.

Hi Denise. I doubt that would work. Once you get to high 700 to 800 C the glass is melting and moving a lot. The temps you fire ceramics at would reduce it to a molten mess. I think. No expert on ceramics.
