FULL FUSE FIRING SCHEDULES_(*F)

The following schedules were built for Bullseye glass based on decades of
experience and testing published by Bullseye, knowledge published by artists who
use BE glass, and personal experience collected from the kilns at Helios. We
adjust these schedules based on which kiln we are using and the needs of each
project. Make adjustments for your own specific kiln and for each specific project. All temperatures
are in degrees FAHRENHEIT.
