Title: Calico and Marmorin
Post by: LampyLou on July 19, 2011, 11:06:05 AM
OK so I got al excited by Martin's e-mails and when I ordered my CIM Sales stuff I also got some Calico and Marmorin.  I've just had a go with the Calico got terrible de-vit which I reheated and still couldn't get rid of and am now a little nervous or the Marmorin.  Can anybody show me some good pictures of Calico or Marmorin beads with tips?

Thanks for the links Veebee.  Interesting about reducing the Marmorin, that looks rather pretty.

I think Martin needs to get the secret tester on these to give us some pointers...... hint hint Martin!

If you super heat calico and put it into the kiln with a light glow it doesn't devit
