Making Swirly Fused Glass Pieces - Day 3

I've cleaned off the pieces; now for the odd step: Take a hammer and smash the fused pieces into bits (wearing safety glasses, of course.)

Prepare for the second fusing in the kiln by taking the broken pieces and standing them on edge on the kiln shelves, allowing enough space between the pieces for them to melt and spread.

Do another overnight fuse with a slow cool-down.
