 Larger bricks were produced from the glass-rich simulant [[JSC-1]].  The sample was initially compacted using vibration for 5 minutes until reaching 2.45 grams/cm<sup>3</sup>, and then sintered for 2.5 hours at 1,100 degrees Celsius.  A silica fabric liner was inserted between the simulant and the fused silica mold to prevent the brick from sintering to the mold.
-Heck of a job there, it asbolutley helps me out.
