I want to make a note on the message that I posted previously: I am using soda lime glass specifically for its low-melting properties. Also, I've noticed that the email replies I've received include my posting with an error in the depth of my channels. Every number 5 that appears is supposed to be a "micro" symbol. That changes my channel depth from 105m to 10microns. Much better. It would appear that I'm pursuing a new field of dekafluidics! Probably my fault since I used an ALT code to get the symbol. I am appreciating the comments I'm getting back. Please keep them coming! :) Drew
