Hi my name is Brandy Monnahan. I need some help. My teacher, Mr. Maxwell
wants us to find some glaze resipes. I would really like you to assist me
on my jurney. The art of working with clay is something that is relaxing
to me, I hope you all injoy it as much as I do. I need resipes that range
from cone 06 to cone 02. Thank you very much.

Here's some glazes that should be helpful.
Cone 04 Clear Crackle Glaze

Gerstley Borate 55%
EPK 30%
Flint 15%

For a nice effect wipe a solution of an oxide over the piece after the glost
firing. Then wipe off the excess. The oxide will remain in the cracks.

I'd like to swap this Cone 04 base and additions for yours.

Ferro 3124 40%
Gerstley Borate 30%
Neph Sy 25%
Flint 5%
+ Zircopax 8%

Additions:
White no additions
Yellow 3% Red Iron Oxide
