Okay I don't get this. If lauscha is indeed 104 coe and is supposed to be compatible with all 104's why does it need to be annealed at 980, when the recommended anneal temp for all other 104 is 968 ?
Does that not stand to reason then that we have no idea what the coe of Lauscha is?
Does to me....sorry but the above reasoning makes no sense at all to me.
I have had many Lauscha beads crack on me and most had silver in them and others had copper mesh. Not something I can afford to waste and will no longer use any Lauscha for encasing or to combine with my 104's.
Seems the only common thing here with cracking is using silver with 104 glass and then adding lauscha to the mix, at least thats what I get when I did a seach of this issue.
Ah anyway, the beads are great and and I am still really really liking that salmon!
