October Bead Experiments

On a miserable rainy weekend in Mid October the bead folks got together to run more furnaces to collect additional temperatures and make more beads.

The full report can be found at http://www.darkcompany.ca/beads/bead1011/

Interesting items in this report:
  • Temperatures were taken both inside and in the chimney at the same time for all three furnaces
  • After the day was done the furnaces were broken down and the impact of the heat was recorded at many locations in the construction
  • Some interesting beads were made
  • Some interesting reticella was made

Now we just have a paper to write for ExArc
