	I changed my mind yesterday. The new one doesn't work any better than the old one.

Agreed.
I have reactive top-top on list.
Easy to do, just throw the reactive agents between 2 clear fuse able plates and cook.
They also used powdered glass, fritted glass, thin confetti glass, sand, metal filings etc. And a raccoon.

A raccoon eh? (laugh)

I think these are some of the best you have done

The Kosta Boda artists(meteor series) are some of the most noted for working with reactive agents.
This Greek artist was no slouch. I can't take photos well enough to show the color and contrasts.
Reactive is a great 'man glass'. Can't wait to get into it. High on bucket list.
I have great access to exotic metals at the industrial junkyards over in the factory district for spazzing out glass.
I do have some problems with the metals sandwiched because of poor bonding between the 2 plates. Cracking too, mixing with glass is tricky.
Tumbling often breaks out glass at the interface.

Not so fast. You may have some fine fuse able glass at you spot.
Would like to cook some up for you Bill. I just need an envelope of small samples.
Plus it qualifies as a repurpose way increasing marketability/desirability.

Some beautiful glass in that category.

rocknrob: That was one heck of a windstorm that thankfully missed me. I guess Seatac almost hit 60mph gusts. I bet those were some fun landings Nov 20, 2024 21:55:16 GMT -5
