BE crystal clear works lots better than their regular clear. Keep the oxy up and have patience. Boro is still going to be better for marbles, but the BE is great for beads.
Do kiln fire your cut strips first in a single layer. Or, you can do two strips, one on top of the other for more glass volumn w/o worrying about spread.
You would need a crucible kiln for a gather, and I'm not sure how BE would behave at those temps!
