Effetre Colored Tubes
Last trip to Effetre I found a few bundles of 104 glass. I will have to measure it when I get back to the office, but I would estimate it was at least half an inch diameter with a 6mm hole going down the center.
I have not tried many times to heat it up, but when I introduced it to the flame it just popped all the way down. I have not tried anything else and I have no idea what they were made for originally.
Two colors, I think one is amber, the other?
Might worth giving it a try. If interested pm me or email me.
Mike

Arrow Springs has the chandelier glass, it's 2 inches I think? Pretty scary introducing it to the flame To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. I tried pulling a point and it was comical. It's cheap if you can think of something to use it for other than in the flame lol.
Mike, I personally want clear, did you stick in the kiln first and it still cracked? I'm not against colors if I can actually use it, but prefer clear.

Devardi has some. They recommend pre-warming before use. I think they have 45 colors including clear. I've been thinking of trying some, since it's only $10 per pound.

I have the chandelier glass from AS. I can't seem to pull points from it, even with preheating.
Mike I will PM you.

Have you tried these? They are tubes ready to blow. They work with bullseye.

CR Loo used to have Lauscha tubing. They still had some last time I was there, but that has not been for a long time.
However, from what I remember, they never had any clear COE 104 tubing.

I too bought some a few years back and finally gave up picking pieces of it up off the studio floor from it exploding in the flame so I haven't touched it since.
Filed it under wasted money section LOL
