Default Help with Reichenbach

I have a lot of Effetre/CIM/Vetrofond glass rods and am trying not to repeat colors I already have. Olympic Color Rods is having a 20% off sale and I need Pearl Pink, so while I was ordering I'm wondering if there are any unique colors in either in 96 or 104 that I need to order at the same time? Any suggestions? It can be Reichenbach or System 96. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Reichenbach COE 104 Purple Rose, for sure!!!
Article number is RL-2002-C.
Don't forget you need to order cane, not rods.
Also, they have a wonderful apple green with striations, another remake of a Zimmerman color called Spring Meadow.

Strawberry
Deep Black

I know both red and black are available, but I like their version better.

Ok, color me semi-clueless. Or just plain forgetful, since I've ordered from them before

What does FOO, FO & F1 stand for?


bundle*$19.92 ea.
1/4 kg Pow$19.72 ea.
1/4 kg F00$19.72 ea.
1/4 kg F0$19.72 ea.
1/4 kg F1$19.72 ea.

Those are frit sizes. If you want lampworking cane, order the bundle, which is 1/2 KG I think. You should check that assertion though. It tells you somewhere.

Pow is powder, F00 is size 00, F0 is size 0, etc.

And the bundles are 1/4KG, not 1/2.

Aye, and look for the C in the name to indicate "Cane".

The other way it comes in in billy club / small baseball bat sizes. Handy for pot melts, not so much for pulling stringers.
