The Cyanotype on somethig other than paper.. I am working on using the
cyanotype solutions and putting them on other mediums.. I have heard of
cloth being used but I am interested in using glass and wood. So far
nothing has worked too well.. the solutions don't hold on the glass, I
have tried transparent base, gum, and egg white has anyone tried this
before... I know that glass negatives were used in the past but that was
a silver based process.. any suggestions...

Coat the glass or tile with a gelatine size to which you should add some
pumice powder. This will give you a perfectly adequate base for
cyanotypes.
