FULL FUSE SMALL ASHTRAY

Small, perhaps 3 1/2 inch square dish of red streaked clear glass over clear glass full fused and then slumped over this subtle pretty mold.   For this small piece I used the following schedule which was successful, schedule from Bullseye Glass: Firing: Basic Applications: Slump firings:

200dph..........................................................1200 degrees.............................Hold 10 mins
Full.................................................................900 degrees.............................Hold 1 hour
100 dph...........................................................700 degrees.............................Hold 1 min
Full....................................................................70 degrees.............................Hold 1 min
off

2nd experiment in full fusing and slumping:

Next, I am full fusing a 9 1/2 inch triangle of clear glass covered by white.  On the white glass I placed transparent blue streamers only on the outside for a slight subtle design.  After the fusing I hope to slump this on a basic triangular drop mold.  I am using the following schedule:
400dph...............................1250 degrees....................hold 30 mins
600dph................................1465degrees....................hold 10 mins
full........................................900degrees....................hold 30 mins
150dph..................................700degrees........................0
full............................................70degrees.....................off

The full fusing came out well.  The sides of the clear blank on the bottom were not completely straight, so the fused bottom looks a little weird.  I am currently slumping that triangular piece of glass into a a triangular mold which I have elevated on two inch kiln posts: 

Now I am just hoping that I coated the inside of the mold with kiln shelf release, otherwise it will stick to it as it drips through.  I used the following firing schedule to slump the piece:

200 dph...................................................1200 degrees.......................................hold 45 min.
Full ...........................................................900 degrees.......................................hold 1 1/2 hours
100 dph......................................................700 degrees......................................-0-
Full..............................................................70 degrees.......................................off
