I deeply appreciate that tip at the end about not cooking food in that microwave. Good safety advice for anyone here who's experimenting at home. Tools designed for food, should /never/ be used on food once they've been used on craft projects that involve non-food-safe fumes/dust/residue. If you want to be able to do both, have duplicates and keep them separate. If there's ANY chance they might get mixed up, label the craft stuff. 💜

[@Annie_Annie__]

This. I work with polymer clay and rather than use my kitchen oven to bake it, I got a little toaster oven for cheap on Facebook Marketplace. My little toaster oven is used for polymer clay and shrink plastic and crafts like that and never any food. Likewise, polymer clay, shrink plastic, and other crafts don’t go in the kitchen oven.

[@markhayes9004]

If you guys ever want some advice or help with your stained-glass projects, I'd be happy to help. I've been working with stained glass for about 30 years now. One thing you definitely want to make sure is that all the glass has the same COE (Coefficient of Expansion) level when you are fusing glass. The packages or the glass will usually be marked with a COE number. If you try to fuse glass with different COE numbers, it will crack eventually. Another thing you might want to try is adding a layer of clear glass to the top, it will add an extra layer of depth and really bring out the contrasts in colors. Another thing to remember about glass fusion is that the glass will almost always wind up two layers thick, so if you use one layer plus a just frit on top, it is probably going to shrink in overall size, but it will be two layers thick. If you use three or more layers, it will expand out to two layers thick and become larger in size in the other dimensions, especially if you are fully fusing the glass. If you want to add texture, you can tack fuse the glass together using a lower temperature in your kiln. If you would like any more advice, please don't hesitate to ask.

[@markhayes9004]

@@Nirrrina That's a good idea, I'd be all for that. I actually like teaching a little bit. During a semester of Stained Glass 2, I was pretty much teaching the whole class because our professor was showing his work in art shows and competitions and was gone a lot. I was supposed to complete two stained glass lamps, plus do some fusing projects, so it made it a bit of a challenge to teach them at the same time I was trying to complete my projects.

[@marysiatomanek538]

So, If I understood correctly, if there are two layers it will shrink, but if there are three it will expand? Fascinating! And for my brain with absolutely no knowledge in the matter absolutely confusing. 😄

It makes me really happy to see Evan and Katelyn’s family support them and are interested in the things they do (no matter how crazy it is).

[@Kotoumi]

I made some fused glass pendants in a class by sandwiching plant pieces between a colorful and clear glass! The plants would turn to ash in the kiln and they looked pretty cool. Thicker things like pine needles turned out more visible than flower petals or thin leaves. It was pretty fun! ...These glass videos always make me wanna play with glass again 😹

[@GlassicGamer]

Glass wants to be 1/4" inch thick while molten so keep that in mind when doing projects. Also be sure to stick to the same COE (coefficient) essentially if the glass you use has the same number such as 96 it will mean that it will all crystalize without issues. Using different COE values can cause cracking as the glass crystals may cool at different rates.

[@EvanAndKatelyn]

[@cjkat92]

I’ve taken glass classes like this and we used hairspray instead of the glue. You get your pieces where you want them and then mist them with non aerosol hairspray. It keeps everything in place when transferring to the kiln, it burns off the same, and it’s cheaper. Have fun and I’m in for any future projects!

So fun!!! I've worked with cutting glass in a lab and I think you would benefit from some safety equipment! When cutting class you always want to wear gloves, glasses, and most importantly a mask or respirator! You can use a dremel to further refine your shapes.

[@emma70707]

Agree--they have good respirators/PAPRs and use them for their other projects! Hopefully they'll see this and start using them for glass projects too.

[@catlover7015]

I made glass mosaics in my art class last year, and for cutting the glass, you’re supposed to hold the cutter from the top, with your thumb on top and fingers curled around it (basically how Evan did it, not Katelyn), so that it’s easier to put more pressure on it. If I remember correctly, it’s easier to pull than push it. From my experience, you can also get by without making a full cut, if the majority of it is cut straight, then if you crack it, it’ll continue straight rather than veer off to the side most of the time. And I’ve found that you can use the snappy tools for anything down to a bit less than a centimeter, anything smaller than that and it can’t get enough grip on either side. And yes, cutting accurate circles is a pain, I had to do like 30 of them, including several that were like half a centimeter. I’d recommend getting some more tools to cut the angles. I don’t know what they’re called or anything (as they were owned by my art teacher and they were very old and dull), but there are ones that look like scissors but just have two circular blades at the end. It will cut the glass randomly and doesn’t rely on any cutting beforehand like the snappy tool you used, but it is incredibly useful. My mosaic was a dragon eye, and the eye was incredibly detailed and was entirely made up of literal shards of glass that were way too thin and small to be cut by the method you used, but were incredibly easy with the tool I used. It also helps because you can very easily just snap off corners with it. That’s the only way I could do circles, just continually cut off anything too sharp until it’s vaguely circular. I would also recommend doing it in front of a basket or something, the shard can and will fly across the room if you don’t have anything to catch it.

So cool that you can do this in a microwave (also a little bit scary). You should make something sassafras themed.

Compared to a microwave kiln (MWK), a "real" kiln takes so many more hours to ramp up, hold, and anneal by slow cooling. It wastes an immense amount of energy (electrical or natural gas), it's really not justifiable as a hobby. It would be like if you baked non-stop for several days at an extremely high temperature.

[@ChibiChula]

I've actually seen this done before by people who have worked with glass before in proper kilns but never by someone trying it out for the first time. It was really fun and I wouldn't mind watching more! 😁👍 Your alien turned out pretty funky and cool, Katelyn! I might have gone for the more standard eye shape but that's personal preference. If you want to do more rounded shapes though, you're definitely going to need a glass grinder for smoothing shapes out. Not sure if there are limits to how high the glass can be in this type of kiln but I think it's also best to put a thin, clear sheet of glass on top of everything to make it look it's best but maybe I'm remembering wrong. 😅 Also, I think Evan just needed two layers of the frit in a bit more of a smooth gradient to get the effect he wanted. Too much of the white underneath showed because there wasn't enough color on top to cover it when it melted so it was more of an abstract sunset at the beach in the end but still pretty cool too. 😉 BTW, I think some clear glass frit would help with filling in spaces so you can keep colors from melting into each other if you top the pieces with clear glass sheets next time. Oh, and I agree that microwaves can be scary, lol. 😅

[@laurenink8953]

This takes me back to the enameling class I took it college. I LOVED IT! Much like Katelyn, I really connect with materials that are able to be manipulated with a high level of precision. I really think Katelyn would love the process of enameling. With a fine powder enamel, you can even stencil with it if you sift it on. Also, hot tip, you can create nice round shapes by grinding glass with a pumice stone and water 😊 to get the shine back, you just heat it up again in the kiln ✨💫

Oppenheimer first draft

[@Rosemary-ql4hk]

I don't know if any other people with glass cutting art experience have told you this but here are some recommendations to make cutting the glass easier: 1) To prevent dulling/rusting of the blades you need glass cutting oil (I did not see any in either video but you may have it). Put some on a paper towel at the bottom of a jar and whenever the cutter is not in your hand, leave it blade down. 2) The red cheap ones are great. Buy them in bulk. The "fancy" one is no better. How well they perform depends on use and care 3) Really try to avoid going off the edge when scoring. It is especially difficult with little pieces, but it dulls the blade fast. The pressure doesn't have to be super super hard 4) Try using glass nippers instead of the running pliers for breaking the little pieces 5) You can always cheat on the little pieces by using the grinder. If the piece is very small, wear gloves 6) Use a sharpie to mark off where you want to score. The ink evaporates in the kiln I hope at least some of this helps : )
