Yes Betsy that's exactly what's happening to me especially with the last batch I received of Autumn, it's a very expensive glass and every time I try and heat it a bit it explodes, I have to stick the rod to a thick mandrel and hope that when the rod explodes the chunk stays stuck to the mandrel to pull into stringers, that's all I can do with it.

CIM should test their glass, if it's too shocky they should discount it, at the moment it's getting ridiculous.
