Haven't tried it yet, but I have a couple of billets sitting in my studio. Got them for a goblet I'm experimenting with--sort of a riff on Memphis architecture. Need to run some compatibility tests to see if they really will work with 96--I want to add some frit wafers to the sides.

Also have billets and frit of the Sapphire Rose. Dead ringer for Rhubarb in billet form, doesn't get the indigo cast until you've got it down to about a half inch...which ought to make it a very interesting glass for pieces with a lot of graduated thicknesses.
