Fusing is the joining together of separate glasses through the application of heat within a kiln. Many people use the terms "fusing" and "kilnforming" interchangeably.
Kilnforming is the shaping of glass within a kiln, using heat and gravity, and methods include fusing, slumping, kilncasting and other techniques.
Works made using these techniques are called "kiln-glass."
