Great outcome. It’s so fun listening to you kinda talking to us and yourself to figure things out. Beautiful final pieces.

This is one of my favorite techniques to do, if I. In a slump I find just playing with stringers like this is great. The ones you did look amazing. I guess you need a bigger kiln now

Made two stringer bowls and never figured out an easy way of cutting them. I thought you did great. Love the pick up sticks. I also did something similar and made a Sushi set.

I've heard tape to hold stringers together for cutting

@lindaclasson1088 9 ай бұрын

Question: Couldn't you put the stringers on the base glass and let them do their thing instead of fusing them separately, then having to do a second full-fuse firing?

@JamaisonSchuler 9 ай бұрын

They won’t move like this is they are on glass first

@lindaclasson1088 9 ай бұрын

I saw someone tape the stringers together before cutting. Haven't tried it yet though.

@candacespees7040 2 жыл бұрын

I've been known to spray with hair spray after arranging the glass. It seemed to be sticky enough to hold it during the fire.

@litamchale2815 2 жыл бұрын

Fantastic video and glass 😍 I use Papyros paper as it lasts a few firings.

@JamaisonSchuler 2 жыл бұрын

Exactly why I like it too!

@brendareagan8866 2 жыл бұрын

try masking tape together/cut with mosaic nippers. I've even used large toenail clippers on them singular (in a box)

@maxlundberg3008 2 жыл бұрын

The scissor type of nippers. Also making the edges not so uniform when laying them out helps open them up.

Hi Jamaison, I love your videos and your creativity! Does it matter what size stringers you use to get this effect?

@JamaisonSchuler 2 жыл бұрын

I used some 1mm and some 2mm… I really don’t think it matters, personally. I suppose you might get more “movement” on 1mm but I am thinking the effect is essentially the same. If you have both, run a sample of each size first and see what you prefer?

@karengreen6590 6 ай бұрын

May I ask, why are there ball berrings in your grid?Do they help the larger sheets move?

@JamaisonSchuler 6 ай бұрын

Yes, that’s exactly right. www.shoptheunderground.com/products/speed-balls?_pos=1&_sid=b0aebe363&_ss=r&variant=13517098680382 More here: creatorsbrand.com/shop/ols/products/creators-speed-balls-6-pack-with-removal-tool-use-with-cutters-mate-and-beetle-bits-systems-perfect-for-stained-glass-work-easier-glass-gliding-and-score-running-on-creators-waffle-grids

I enjoy your videos and love the outcome of your platters. Is this food safe?

@JamaisonSchuler 2 жыл бұрын

She’s buying these as decorative display platters for some bookshelves in her living room, so we weren’t concerned about food safety. If so, we could cap with clear powder to create a protective layer.

Lovely! I like these kinds of pieces, one of my fave ones I made was on a black round, very striking.

@joanndeborja8674 2 жыл бұрын

Can you just put the stringers directly on the glass since you're full fusing it anyway on the pi k up stick one?

@DigiDentist Жыл бұрын

Really like the "pick up sticks" project... possible to tack or contour fuse that onto one sheet of Tekta? If so, can you suggest a schedule? Thank you! 🙂

@JamaisonSchuler Жыл бұрын

If I were going to do that, I’d probably go 400-1375-0, 9999-900-120, 100-700-0. But that’s just me and my kiln… you might want to do a small test first

@DigiDentist Жыл бұрын

Thanks, Jamaison. I'll give it a try.

@lesselavie7675 2 жыл бұрын

Jamaison, if you were going to do the first technique in a form of a saguarro, would you cut out the design before the first firing? Thanks, I love that technique!!!

@JamaisonSchuler 2 жыл бұрын

I think I would, yes. I would try to get it into my rough shape first instead of trying to cur/nip it or after. But maybe that could work too? Good luck!

@lesselavie7675 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you!

@lornasaner1130 2 жыл бұрын

Wouldn’t a tack fuse work to stick them together? Then place that creation on top of the tektite?

@JamaisonSchuler 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, I’m sure that would work but I’m not sure you’d get the full movement of the stringer that I was looking for. I really wanted it to ball up and round off.

@twylahcampbell2277 Жыл бұрын

Which kiln do you have? I’m really wanting a bigger one. I have a smaller Jen-ken now and it’s only an approximately a 6” octagon top load. I want a larger firing service in a clamshell top

Hi there! I have the JenKen Profusion 26 (which has a 24x24 shelf) and I’ve been very pleased with it.

You also need the grid, guide bar, etc. It’s not an inexpensive system to buy. This is the other components I have to make the full system: amzn.to/3tzAwxv
