i've been doing honeycombs with simax recently... now i haven't done combs for a long long time so i figured that was my problem at first... but now i am convinced its the simax.


when i do combs w/ simax (44x3) my combs look flat, and 2-dish..... with little to no crystal growth... although with my schott BA (25x4) its like the combs always have a nice 3-d depth from the growth.... i'm gonna give the schott a try tomorrow for combs b/c i think i just found the answer to my honeycomb problem that was driving me crazy this week.


with that said, i prefer simax still for ISO fume work....

anyways.... sorry bout the shitty pics but its the best i can do. comb on the right(its a broken old comb) is SBA, left is simax... its pretty clear how cartoony and shitty the simax one looks, while the SBA one has much better depth. even with the thick walls, the simax one doesn't strike into the glass the way the SBA did...
