Hello Amy: good luck on seeking after your own visual pleasure. :O) It
will probably be much more fun than my experience with cerium. I worked
on a project to develope a refactory body that could be used to slump
some specialty glass. I used cerium as a base for a size for the molds.
Gratifying to the pocketbook but not a real "visual pleasure".
Go for it. I would love to see something a little more visually
gratifying with cerium!
Cheers
