Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Learn How Kiln-Formed Glass Actually Works, Without Feeling Lost in Technical ConfusionHave you ever looked at fused or slumped glass artwork and wondered how flat sheets of glass become smooth flowing bowls, layered textures, or glowing kiln-fired designs Do firing schedules, compatibility charts, annealing stages, and kiln controls feel more intimidating than inspiring Would you like a calmer, more beginner-friendly way to understand kiln glass without feeling rushed into complicated projects too early Kiln-formed glass is one of the most rewarding creative processes to learn, but many beginners struggle because they are trying to understand heat, movement, compatibility, and firing behavior all at the same time.This book approaches the process differently.Instead of overwhelming you with technical language and advanced projects immediately, KILN-FORMED GLASS BASICS helps you understand how glass actually behaves inside the kiln, gradually, visually, and step by step.You will learn why certain projects crack, how firing schedules guide movement safely, how gravity shapes slumped glass, and why preparation habits often matter long before the kiln heats up.Inside, you'll explore: - Beginner-friendly explanations of kiln firing and heat movement - Glass compatibility and why COE matters - Safer kiln setup and workspace organization - Understanding annealing without technical confusion - Practical full fuse and tack fuse techniques - Preparing glass properly before firing - Bubble prevention and cleaner layering habits - Slumping basics and how molds influence movement - Simple beginner mold-making principles - Controlled firing practices for better consistency - Troubleshooting cracks, distortion, stress, and uneven movement - Observation-based learning techniques that build long-term confidenceWhat makes this book different is its focus on understanding instead of memorization.Rather than treating kiln-glass work like a rigid technical system, this guide helps you recognize patterns, movement, and cause-and-effect relationships that make the process feel more manageable over time.The writing style is intentionally calm, practical, and beginner-focused. Instead of pushing perfection, the book encourages observation, patience, safer habits, and gradual skill development through real firing experience.This book is complete on its own. Additional optional practice guidance is included for readers who want more structured firing exercises and mold-making exploration.If you want to learn kiln-formed glass through clearer explanations, thoughtful preparation, and a more confident understanding of how heat shapes glass, this book offers a strong place to begin.Add it to your library and begin exploring the creative possibilities of fusing, slumping, and kiln-fired glass with greater clarity and confidence.…
