Thanks for the quotable quote.
Does anyone have experience with raku type clay at low fire, and the glaze
bases that might fit? I like the appearance and weight of the Raku type clay
but have no access to that kind of firing process. The glazes that I have
been using for white clay craze on the raku leaving an attractive honey
colored piece with a uniform medium craze, attractive in its own way, but not
suitable for some of the other things I'd like to do with the clay. Any
suggestions or references would be appreciated. Thanks, Bob
