Description
This Bundle Includes a C105 Circle Foot Casting Mold plus 2 Fiber Ring Sets
Fuse a stemmed foot to a draped bowl using this mold & ring system
Transport your fused glass work to the next level by adding a ‘blown glass style’ stemmed foot to a draped bowl. Use the C105 Circle Foot Casting Mold to create a 3 1/4” (8.3 cm) diameter cast glass disk. Then place the cast foot disk on one set of F500 Stackable Fusing Foot Rings to shape the foot and fuse it to the base of a bowl during a standard drape firing schedule.
Adding a ‘Stemmed Foot’ to a drape bowl is simple:
- Cast a 3 1/4” (85 mm) x 1/4” (6 mm) glass disk in the C105 Foot Casting Mold using leftover scrap glass pieces from your project.
- Stack the F500 Foot Rings to create the ‘V’ shaped cone assembly. One set of F500 Rings is included with the C105 Foot Mold. 2-Pack refills are available for purchase enabling you to add a foot to 2 different bowls.
- Place a pre-fused flat blank on a draping mold (such as the M35 Starfire mold) then center the Foot Ring cone assembly and stack the Cast Foot disk on top.
- Set the kiln controller to the recommended drape fire schedule to shape the bowl, create the stemmed foot profile and fuse the foot – all in the same firing.
