Here, I will attempt to give you details of how I create the pieces I make.  It is by no means meant to be definitive guides, and should not be considered the "only" way to do anything.  The methods I use are those I have come up with through trial and (fairly regular) error, and I am fairly certain will not be news to anyone else who has done stained or fused glass before.  There are, after all, only so many ways to melt glass in a kiln, or to stick glass together with copper foil and solder :)  Feel free to take these and use as works best for you!

I'll be adding more on as time goes by, when time and tide allows.
