frtting glass

	here's a quick one for you. been in planning for a while. silica 74%, soda 21%, calcium oxide 5% - The science and archaeology of materials (2000)  promises this has a eutectic of 725°c. heh. mixed well, piled in a dish. heat
800°c - it kinda began to pull together. it was a little solid, but when i poked it, it was 'soft'
	1000°c - same as 800°c. but hotter. i maxed out my kiln at 1067°c and didn't wanna run it all night. turned off kiln.
this morning it is a hard solid mass. plan to break it up and just give it more heat work. start a 2nd batch. Zo Industries 1st run glass.
