Re:ATM 32 INCH Not melting ,but fusing

["Dave Allmon" <dallmon@swbell.net>]

You still have to anneal it. The annealing temp zone
is _below_ the slump temp.

You can slump glass over a ceramic, or refractory
mold. It won't stick because it isn't sticky at
the temps used to slump. For fusing you may need
to use a refractory powder to keep it from sticking.
