  2. Wowza! The nickel, sulfur #brown color pot was amazing! I believe Mike nailed the density I was looking for even with just one dip of #glass sandwiched between two clear dips of glass, its dense enough where the tube looks black without a phosphor backing or light shining through it.
    The personal dark color pot is also amazing for recycling- I could throw my bits of color in the crack off bin (shedding off the cooling blowpipes) back in the furnace before dinner to have fully melted, streaky swirly glass after dinner! I saved most of the dense brown glass cleaning out the pot at the end of the night as color bars- the typical way we buy it

    I have another 50 pounds of #color base- and well over a hundred, 5 foot tubes. The lighter tan color tubes have silver in them. Mike mentioned silver nitrate may be needed for those. I wonder how much I would need for 50 pounds and if it would be safe to melt?

    I pulled a flawless 50 footer today!

  15. When I started working in the UK Diplomatic Service, in #London most of the #lifts #elevators were by a company called Bennie.

    The one closest to me no one wanted to use because it was #haunted - it used to go up and down on its own.

    It was near the reception area opposite the telephones provided to the media so they could call back to their office (no computers or mobiles back then).

    Bennie provided lifts that you would see in London #tube stations (maybe elsewhere?)
