I pulled tubes with my buddy Sean today and picked up the submit Ideas here box. Very excited to have these tubes. I tried to use all my color bar... which wasnt a bunch, Ali helped a little- so now I should get some color bars to replace what I used.

I want more of the (white looking) Iris Amber- its got silver in it and reflects light off of it one way (whitish) but filters light another- amber
I also want more dark amber tubes- cant seem to get enough of those... and cream brown- I used two bars of Ali's today. We pulled an interesting copper ruby that is now out of production too... It might be possible to melt a pot of copper ruby.

Of course more ruby tubes are always nice... but the gold colors are expensive at about $50-$100 per 30 foot pulls (more gold=more pink)

Excited to phosphor coat these tubes.... I wanna make a xenon Iris, gold and copper ruby one.

Excited to go through the Idea box.
