Donald G. Goldsobel on tue 17 dec 96
The other day I was looking for a couple of old tenmoku recipes that I used
when I first started out mixing glazes, and they were gone. They came from a
paperback manual by Carlton Ball, a noted potter and teacher. I have all of
the manual except the two pages with all of the cone ten formulas- great
glazes. I believe Westwood ceramics, now Laguna copied several of them,
including the two I,m searching for, tenmoku #1 and #2. If anyone has that
paperback, I would love to have the formulas. The other glazes, I recall
are waxy white, chun and T-16 clear; very reliable.
Thanks a heap.
