Happy New Year everyone! I’ve been silversmithing as a hobby at home for just over a year now and I decided to have a go at doing a small sand cast. However I am being hindered at my first hurdle… For some reason my borax won’t glaze despite the crucible glowing hot. I’m starting to wonder if my borax is fake (although I’m sure it’s not because why?) 🤪😅 I am using two torches, one auto start, go system blow torch with max operating temp of 1600 and another small dremel hand torch.
Any trouble shooting advice would be appreciated ❤️
