Exploring Plasma and Neon in Kiln-Formed Glass
Dive into the fascinating world of plasma by exploring the art of creating plasma and neon filled panels using fused glass techniques, building on the process pioneered by Wayne Strattman (Luminglas) and further developed by Mark Ditzler.
In our kiln shop sessions, you'll master glass design and assembly, shaping glass with molds or fiber models, and sealing parts using specialized "solder glass" in the kiln — including use of the water jet cutter for sheet glass and laser cutter for intricate fiber patterns.
In the neon/plasma shop, learn about vacuum techniques, gas pressure, phosphors, and power supplies. Complete two panel projects and unravel the rarely explored path of flat panel plasma design.
