:) Sorry I don't know about fusing schedules, although I would quite like to know too as I also have a beadcube... just wondering whether Lee at Kilncare could help, they are usually very helpful there.

I've just been doing exactly this - will dig out the programme. Are you using bullseye?

This is the programme I used last for Bullseye:

1. ↑ 222 to 670, hold 20min
2. FULL to 804, hold 10min
3. FULL to 482, hold 30min
4. ↓ 80 to 371, no hold
5. FULL to 93, no hold
6. End

Step 1 is a bubble squeeze and only short as I was doing small pieces. The temps and times are based on the info on the Bullseye site and I got some good results with this programme. Takes 9 hours.
