Product Description

You'll love creating fused art with Youghiogheny (pronounced Yock-uh-gain-ee) Y-96 Fusible Glass. This line of 96 COE compatible glass is sure to be a crowd pleaser with a palette of robust opal, transparent and streaky colors. Y-96 Glass is tested using a dilatometer and fusing tests are examined with a polariscope to ensure our product meets the set standard.

This glass appears like a semi-transparent blue in its unfused state and fires to a consistent blue color. Striker glass matures upon firing. Colors may vary, depending on firing schedule, rate, atmosphere, and heatwork. For color-sensitive projects, test before use. 96 COE.

Delphi Tip: Clean Y-96 glass thoroughly with a non-ammonia glass cleaner before firing to get a smooth, gloss finish in your fired art. Cap with clear for an extra glossy finish.

Note: Glass color shifts when fired.

Main image shows the glass fired and the second image is unfired. Additional images include a sample fired alone and fired on clear. Also shown is an assortment of the transparent colors and opaque and transparent colors available in the Y-96 glass line.

Y96 Recommended Firing Schedules

Delphi Tip: We recommend using a project and firing log to keep track of information about your projects and firing schedules can be an extremely useful tool for every artist. Once you've achieved a good result you can reference the logs to re-create the project or simply re-use a firing schedule for a similar project. Click here to download our free firing log.

*All kilns are not alike. Your kiln size, controller type, and  individual  project may require some alteration to the schedule for best results.

  •   Beautiful denim color
By on
Pros : beautiful glass
Cons : fires lighter, think "Wedgewood" -
Other Thoughts : Pretty color before and after firing, but had hoped it would fire truer to the color as it shows. Turns out a little lighter

When and how did you get started in stained glass? Ive been interested in stained glass for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would sit in churches and watch the (often) biblical depictions come to life when a stray ray of sunlight cast its illumination our way. Sun shadows dancing. I dabbled in many media over the years, trying to find an outlet for some of the visions careening inside, but none of them took. Drawing, painting - even watercolours - no amount of professional training could guide my hand in a satisfactory way. But then there was the glass. I lived abroad for a few years, and wound my way through Europe on my way back to the States when I finished my Peace Corps Service. My last international destination was Paris, where one of my closest friends lives as an organist. Two beautiful autumn

Chances are, right now, in reading this blog post, youre avoiding an overdue task. I too was avoiding a laundry list of work-related tasks in writing this. Procrastination is a part of life, and its certainly always been a part of mine. As a teenager, my parents would accuse me of putting off everything from piano practice to math homework. Id vehemently deny their charges hissing back, I work better under pressure. The truth was, I often felt overwhelmed, under-productive and anxious. Over the years, Ive been able to combat my avoidance issues using 4 tools. The trick is constantly reminding myself of these actions, because they do not come naturally to me. 1. Just Say No. I say yes to everything. Need someone to head up that event? Sure. Want me to design 12 posters for the Car Wash? No problem. Take your kid to daycare? Of course.
