Thanks for the help. With the clear 66 mm rods do you just put them in the kiln without working them in the flame first? Thanks again for all the comments.

Herkimer diamonds

I was told that Herkimer diamonds would work with boro. I tried two different sizes, and they both cracked when I put hot clear glass on them. I thought maybe I should start them in the kiln first?...

Thanks, Ron. When you suggest the holding tanks, would those attach to the oxycons? The weather info is VERY helpful....lots of hot humid days in Florida.
