thanks for the suggestions and the chemistry of lithium.
I enjoy having such knowledgeable sources available as Craig and
Ivor and Ron. I am more of an experimenter than chemist and have the=3D20
luxury of a school glaze lab with slaves (students) to try things out.
We're currently doing a triaxial blend with some unlikely blends, just =3D
for the
fun of it.=3D20
I will try some experimenting with the Moss Crystalou by subbing ball =3D
clay and
maybe sodaspar for all or part of the neph.sye. I like the glaze as is, =3D
but I
am interested enough to play with it a little. Might try some sodium =3D
silicate...
