Using Marbles

Apr 04, 2007 2 Replies

Has anyone ever tried to fuse glass marbles on other pieces of glass? I have just bought a small kiln (8" x 8" x 4.5") and I was thinking about trying it out.



In order to fuse pieces of glass successfully, they have to be the same coe (coefficient of expansion), otherwise, the glass will crack and break. I doubt that you know the coe for the marbles.

I would recommend using Bullseye 90 fusible glass (double rolled). The colors are outstanding and the glass is treated to prevent devit. Moretti has only a few colors in sheet glass and it devits all over the place.

Thanks Patti. Your correct, I don't know what coe meant, but I do now.

Regards, Ron
