CIM Stoneground

I just thought I'd ask if any of you guys have any experience with this colour ?? .... does it like to react ?? It looks like a lush dark opal yellow.

I'm hoping to save my already limited glass supply from a bunch of failed experiments with this colour.....

Anyone

Thanks,
Les xx

Hi ,

Yes it looks like opal yellow and better people than me have reported it working like opal yellow too.

Cheers ,

Martin

Thanks for that Martin
I was down to my last (less than) half a rod of opal yellow too

It takes on a pinky blush when used with SIS. I think there were some beads in the CIM S&T comp - Sarah's?

oo thanks Kaz... I'll go have a look

[Sarah]

My ears are burning 

I have these



which also have some red roof tile & wasabi in them

You do get a pinkish blush with SIS.

Heather also has some beauties just with SIS & stoneground. Its reply 492 on page 33 of the CIM comp.

Don't encase it with lauscha - I saw some of the most impressive compatibility cracks ever when I opened the kiln on Monday

Thanks for your advice Sarah

I'm really starting to like this colour... gorgeous beads !!!

This was stoneground with SIS and light brown transparent. It took on a bit of the pinky tinge.

My kiln is warming up now... got new propane attatched.....

[Kaz]

Go, girl, go!
BTW have you got any Canyon de Chelly - that's pretty spectacular too and in the same colour range.....

I've got a few rods left I think.... when i run low on a colour, I tend to stop using it, incase I mess the beads up and waste the glass, LOL... silly me

[Lush!]

Not silly at all - I've just started a thread about ASK glass for that reason!
