Jo said: We fuse a lot of bottles at the studio, and no matter how they got set up they would roll, evrything is lever, our ceramice guru and I have checked it twice, we decided it the heat inside the bottles making them roll, it sounded good anyway!

If you chedk out the bottles, you will find that one side is heavier (has more glass/is thicker) than the other.  If you find that heavy side and put it down there is less chance for it to roll.  In addition, put a little piece of fibre paper at each side of the base.

Jo said: Sometimes things work and sometimes they don’t.

The important thing is to learn why they don’t work so that can be applied to future work.
