Default Shift to fusing

I don't remember what the thread was, but someone mentioned that
traditional leaded glass work appears to be in decline with a growing
popularity in baking it. I got a Bullseye catalog today in the mail
and the truth in that statement is verified by the emphasis in their
catalog. Shake and bake.

The popularity of fusing can be seen by the other glass manufacturers that
have added a fusing line or drawn attention to the ability of their glass to
be used for fusing.

Youghiogheny has Easy Fuse, compatible with float glass
Kokomo has run several ads regarding the ability of their glass to be in the
fusing library
Spectrum of course has System 96
Bullseye, emphasis noted previously
Urorboros , COE 90 and 96
Armstrong has a line of float compatible, although the name escapes me

Wissmach seems to be content with producing that which they already do
well, have never tested their glass, just because there are so many out
there already, never felt the urge.
