I too tried that technique after seeing the article....my son works for a
stained glass company and I have access to lots of glass shards.
In the bisque, the little pieces did not fall off nor did they run off the
pot onto the shelves. What DID happen however, was that one of my vases
with the glass on the outside was placed abutting someone else's pot, and
the glass managed to make an (unwanted) design on the other person's
pot. I raku-ed mine...but with disappointing results as the colors in the
glass seemed to disappear.
I plan to do it again though ...I think the idea is intriguing!

Yup it will definitely run onto the shelf. Been there done that. I now
have a small collection of glass drops. If you don't want it to run you
can't fire above 1200F. I read Steve's process, but I think it leaves a =
lot
to the imagination. I use glass in my ^6 slab pieces and also in the =
bottom
of bowls. If the glass is not contained or even when the piece is not =
level
in the kiln it has a way or running out. I use the glass in the glaze
firing not the bisque, although you can. The glass reacts with the =
glaze,
smoothes out well and is shiny. In the bisque it tends to pull away =
from
the sides and remains matt. I have also used it in Raku. The tricky =
part
with Raku is getting it out of the kiln. Otherwise it works fine. When =
the
glass is on the bottom of bowls I let people know they are no longer
considered "functional". I put the glass in an unglazed area, but bring =
the
glaze up to the edge. The glass will pull some of the colorants into =
the
glass so keep this in mind when you choose the color of the glass you =
are
going to use. Just re-read your question and this is definitely more =
than
you asked. Sorry...Maybe someone else will need the info. Good luck.
Maybe you can get Steve to respond to this. I would like to know how he
does it to. =20

I did not try Steven's technique. I can offer you this way put your work
on a plate. Cut small square pieces out of soft bricks. For each work
you need three. Put your work on these three squares the way crystal
firing is done, besides, I am not sure anything will happen in ^06

The glass does run. Steven Branfman does Raku so his pieces don't get very
hot, and the running is controlled. If you fired at Cone 4 it would
completely melt and run (we did this in a workshop once.) If you do a low
fire bisque, I think you are fine. Maybe an 08 or something. I am thinking
about a workshop I took with Steven and I don't remember the glass being
very melted after the bisque.
