mine haven't arrived from DH either, but there is something waiting for me at the post office that needed signing for, so it might be my glass. Then again, it might not

Sandy, are you reducing with the foil collar? If so, hold the bead way out, at arm's length, you'll get a lighter reduction that way. Then just warm it again in the tip of a normal flame. As long as you don't get it too hot again, or you'll melt away what you've just done! You can repeat as often as you need, but I'm getting better colours on first try, if I keep the reduction light.

Thanks Mary you answered my thoughts! I've been too heavy handed with my HH reducing.
- mental note - keep at arms length - lightly!!! Great tip.
Thanks again, Elisa
