John ... beautiful seahorse. But the glass isn't purple

I like the color in the rod better.

Yeah I'm getting more bright reddish pinks the more cycles I strike. Gonna attempt what I call watering down today and see what happens. I am striking everything else
For the 3rd time right now. Will post pics of those results soon too.

Thanks so much for taking the time to experiment! I don't think I tried watering it down, only tried it over clear. Interested to see what you get!

Think it was a little too much clear this time around. I did about 5-1.... It is striking a little, should be cooled down in a couple hours for pics. Then I'm gonna strike it for about a week to see what happens. Also the striking on the seahorse and jelly should be cool then too for photos. I'll mount it up and ship it to you in the next couple days.

It gets better the more you strike... I didn't phot the watered down test as it is still pretty transparent, but if what I'm seeing is correct, this color will rock after 3-5 cycles. The edge of the jelly wine stope became more vibrant with the extra striking too.

Question, when you say strike again, are you just putting it through another kiln cycle? I'm really clueless about boro, but aim to learn.
Oh, and that is gorgeous!

I will probably run the seahorse 1 or 3 more times, but this one I'll just finish up and get in the mail......unless you want me to strike it a few more times to see what happens, but I don't see it changing much more.

Cool, I'll get it done and shipped.

Eileen,
Yes striking it again means I'm dropping it below 500 (sometimes all the way to room temp) then back up to 1050-1150 for a bit (at least 10-15 min) and then back down. Colors like Mai tai pink require 3-5 cycles to really strike. I'm seeing the same kinda thing here with the morado.

Thank you for explaining, I hope I can remember when I get something that needs that treatment.

I got some green morado from ABR at the IFC. Haven't had a chance to use it yet. Please post pic if you can. I'd love to get some idea of how it works.

Default Jelly fish question

Hi John,
How do you get those perfect little bells on your jellyfish? I can never get mine to come out that way. Your UV jellies are very cool, by the way. Here's one so you can see what I mean.
Thanks,
Dave
ps. If it's a big trade secret, that's cool too.
