No Laughing! Where's the fun in that? Anyway, a pot drop is just like it sounds, suspend a container, with a hole in the bottom, (clay flowerpots work great) full of glass over a shelf. Get it hot, and the glass comes out in a stream. Makes some interesting patterns. Brock

That sounds really interesting, thanks for explaining...so the
"Gils egg drop bowl" would be an example?

Very cool.

Thanks for the link, I'll be passing it on to a micro-photographer I know. Has to be easier than playing with emulsions or whatever he does to get his effects. - Haydo.
