most used reference book June 2, 2006
12 out of 12 found this review helpful

I used this book as my reference guide for every project during my first year of working with kiln formed glass. It is a wonderful tool, easy to understand for the beginner, chock full of valuable information, and I still refer to it as I tread into unfamiliar waters. I have many books, but this one is the visibly "used" one with the dog eared pages.

This is the first book that I pull out when I have a fusing question. It is easy to read, covers a great range of topics, and as a bonus, has many pictures of work by some amazing glass artists.

Complete Guide June 2, 2006

I bought this book when I first started fusing and still use it on a regular basis. It offers solid guidance on almost every area of fusing. Without this book I might have given up on my glass.

A must have June 2, 2006

I bought Brad Walker's book and the book by Beveridge [...]. I got them at the same time and started reading the Beveridge book first. I did manage to get through the book, but it took several re-reads of certain parts for me to grasp the concept of what she was talking about. For the beginning fuser, I found the information a bit too technical. I have been using Brad Walker's book as my fusing bible ever since. It is easy to understand, a thorough guide to fusing and well written. Admittedly there are a few typos in the copy, but it can be easily overlooked. Without having taken any formal classes in fusing, I was able to learn how to fuse with Mr. Walker's book. With the additional resource of his website, much more information can be gleaned. I continually go back to Mr. Walker's book for confirmation, troubleshooting, and ideas. It is a great resource and well worth the price.
