Thank you Lisa.. I am just now returning to glass after being MIA in the art world for about 15 years. Re learning techniques I used to do without thinking has proven to be a bit daunting..

Thank you, very informative. I recently bought a couple of stainless steel molds and was feeling intimidated to use them. I have a couple of questions: Have you videotaped information on identifying pottery? ceramic? pieces from thrift stores and how to prep and use them for fusing? I would really love to learn how to do this as I’ve seen very unique pieces I wanted to purchase but have never felt confident trying. Thanks so much for sharing your wealth of information and experience in glass fusing.

Me too would love to know more about what to do with ceramic or porcelain pieces you get from the thrift stores, Target etc

I can totally make a whole video of going out and finding a piece at a store and converting it into a mold, the only problem with that is those molds tend to not last as long as a mold purchased from a glass fusing store. An example would be I once found a cute spoon rest that I converted to a mold and was only able to use it 4 times before it broke apart. But it is still doable! It also depends on the material of the piece, like unglazed terracotta is a great material for molds as it has it can take high temperatures and withstand multiple uses. I hope this helps, lt me know if a video of this would be interesting and I will make it happen! :)

Thank you and yes I would love a video on finding, identifying, and preparing a unique and usable mold from a thrift or antique store.

Can you season multiple new formers at one time?

thanks Lisa for great videos. I would like to make my own mould shape from the stainless steel but wonder how thick the metal is? Is there any rule for the thickness of the metal considering it must hold the glass on top of it without changing its shape?

Great question, I believe the standard thickness of stainless steel molds from the manufactures is 16 gauge. I hope this helps!
