I suppose it is possible that the clear you have is a different C.O.E. I would think that all your clear encased beads would crack if that was the case though if it were mixed in together with the 96 only a few would crack. I don't have a lot of experience mixing C.O.E.s together - yet. I have branched out from the 104, so I'm sure I will get something mixed up here sooner or later. I hope this helps, Robin Hi Lisa,

I'm curious about the differences in Reichenbach's c.o.e. You said there are two different C.O.E.'s for Reichenbach; 96 & 104. I've been using Reichenbach for about 4 years & for the past several months I've had intermittent cracking after removing my beads from the mandrel, but only when I encase with clear. I kept thinking I got a bad batch & it was mixed in with left overs from a good batch. Is it possible that some of the rods from a separate order had a different c.o.e.? Love to hear your answer.

I have one rod of Gaffer and have only made one bead with it...the color was wonderful and loved the sparkle...but do not know anymore about it...the rod was given to me as a gift..would love to work with it more and see if I liked it better than the 104 that I have been using for years...Barbara Thanks for the wonderful list…wish I could try them all myself.

My husband wonders why I don't use the glass I already have. :( I wish I had unlimited amounts of money and could buy whatever I want without anyone complaining about it.
