Fusing Classes, Kiln Hire?

[Sarah999]

Hi.
I was wondering if any one knew of any where in or arround Nottingham where I can borrow a kiln to do some funsing work until I can afford one of my own?

Thanks

Hi Sarah

We're running a one day fusing class at the Long Eaton Art Room in November,  Sunday 2nd.

You can also hire the kiln there - I am not sure how the fees work for it, as we only tried the kiln for fusing in summer, and its a huge kiln, so not sure how the fees structure will be working -

Contact Mary Stewart at the art room, she'll be able to tell you more.

Not Nottingham but there is a massive one at my nearest glass place in Calverley, Near Leeds (www.pvsuk.net)  It would only take an hour or so depending on where abouts you are.  Their glass is compatible with float AKA window glass, so if you use a lot of clear in your designs then you can end up quids in!

Are the materials included in the £35 deposit for the course at Long Eaton? I think I might have to get my self there, I miss not being able to make glass things so much at uni!
I am definately going to email and ask how much it is to use the kiln!

Hi Sarah

Yes, the £35 includes materials (and I might even bring cake!) -  Enough glass for perhaps a few pendants, a coaster/wall plaque or 2, and there'll be float glass available, which if I can carry on begging, will be as much as you can use!

Brill!
Count me in, I will be booking this class ASAP!
Thank you!
