Testers for boro frit blends?
Well, I've been experimenting with my own boro frit blends for a little while now (and, some of my recent customers have received samples to try), and I think I'm ready to start selling them. However, I'm looking for a few more people to test them and give me honest opinions on them.
So, here's the deal... the next 15 people to post in this thread that they would like to try out some of my blends will receive a sample (unless you have already received one - I know who you are so no cheating!  ) and all I ask in return is that you e-mail, PM, or call me and tell me honestly what you think about it. I have 5 different blends that I am pretty happy with, but I want to get them into the hands of someone other than me to try. If you like them, great, but if you don't, please tell me.
If you post that you'd like to try, be sure that your address is in the RAOGK section. The only other stipulation is that you get back to me within a month of when you receive them to let me know what you think. They are going up on my site for sale in January.

Chad,
I'm a "boro rookie" here. I have a few rods that I wasn't going to touch til I felt I was experienced enough NOT to ruin them. I just bought 3 pounds of boro from Mr. Smiley, 1 of which is clear. If you feel your frit will NOT be wasted on me, I would like to give it a whirl BUT if you feel you want experienced testers, please be hones and pass on me. It will not hurt my feelings. I promise!
Sue

Actually, I want both experienced and new boro workers. I want to put out frits that someone with a limited amount of experience can get good results with, but will also work well for experienced workers.

Just a reminder to everyone...
Be sure your address is in the RAOGK section so I can send the frit to you!

I didn't count how many either - but if there's any room I'll be your boro frit whore. I'll even send you pics of what I make + the recipes. Yum Yum! Lots of experience here - AND I adore frit (I'm up to my 4th drawer).
