In Part 1, we saw the ungrouted and grouted versions of this one. Here it is with the painted sides to make it complete. This is the sun in its final resting spot… … on the Wall-O-Suns.

Or at least a lot of practice at it! This is a 5″ plate that was fused and slumped. And the side view showing the depth:
