@Susan H. What COE are you working with?

I slumped a small deep bowl and the firing took the glass all the way to the bottom of the mold. However, it came out lop sided. I believe I can even it out but I'm not sure what firing schedule to use. The first firing was low and slow and had 8 segments. I might also mention that I first did a full fuse of the two pieces of glass and of the additional embellishments before doing the slump fuse. My fear is that all of the glass will slump into the bottom of the bowl. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks so much.

@I have repaired broken glass on several old (60-80 year old) panels that were made of zinc. So framing your lead panel in zinc shouldn't be a problem. If panels are to be outside I always recommend waxing (finishing compound) Spring, Summer and in November.

I am ready to frame a 3 sided stained glass window cornice. I have the framing material from Delphi. Wondering what glue or Product is recommended to secure the glass into the wood frame.

@jjplouffe This is still considered a small panel so no you don't have to reinforce it. Anything larger though you would.

I'm making a 2'x2' copper foil panel as a hanging/framed panel, not as a window panel. Is it necessary to reinforce this size project?

@twillitespirit The rounded top is achieved when the glass is taken to a full fuse.

I'm curious on how to get a "domed" or r"ounded top" (looks like half a marble) like You see on earrings, on glass cabochons?

You can use 96 COE glass in a microwave kiln.

@This can be adapted for both. The only thing that would change is the annealing temperatures. We use 900 F for 90 COE and 950 F for 96 COE glass.
