Dichroic glass can be a challenge at times. If you have any questions or comments about this please ask.

Some very striking colours with Dichroic, shame it’s so expensive! I also believe you can “scratch” the coating off and make patterns if you want to. Thanks for the firing schedule 😀

Yes, some great colours and can be expensive. Some styles are less expensive. Just use as little as possible. The type I used in the video are about 15 - 20 USD for a 100 mm (4") square. But you could make around 6 features, depending on size. If you're selling that makes them affordable. And you can scratch or etch the coating off and make patterns if you wish.

Thanks Jeff, great video with new designs that I love and will try. Most of the Dichroic jewelry I have made has been round or odd shaped then I wire wrap them.

@@RocketRoseArt Hello Jeff! I've tried to make these but my edges still remain very sharp. I have a smaller kiln (sentry xpress 4.0). What do you suggest so that I get softer edges?

Mr Jeff u have a good eye for color. i love the chains and the bails u have used with them, where do u buy those at

Hi Elaine. Honestly, I can't remember. But maybe through a supplier on eBay. Our jewellery supplies stores are generally more costly for the same thing.

Hi could you tell me the time needed to tack fuse using a microwave kiln? Many thanks Julie

Hi Julie. Sorry I can’t but best thing is to do some tests. Even with larger kilns I still test. Different colors will work at different temperatures.
