there are about a dozen folks working on this project, and
all are getting very amazing results.mel
it is not the kind of kiln you own, it is what you

Thanks for posting these - very interesting.

previously formed crystals melting again. In other words - to get optimum
crystal growth you must be careful to not remelt what has already formed.
