Just thought I'd put this out there.

I just tried "Kelley's Lowfire Shino", in both ^04 and^7 oxidation firing.

This recipe is from "10 Tried and True Raku Glaze recipes". The ^04 test

was quite uninteresting and very dry, virtually unusable. The ^7 seemed

to have quite abit of promise. It didn't even run at this much higher

temperature.

Any thoughts on this?


Here is the recipe:


Lithium carb.------26

Neph. sy.--------- 64

EPK ---------------10

---------------------------

light rutile--------6

Manganese carb. ----0.5



Thanks,

Eric
