Hi David,
I'm back from the New York workshop but snowed under with ClayArt mail and
glaze work. It went well - I have figured out how to teach calculation
quickly though. All you need to do is convince them it is not that
complicated - so I sepend the first hour telling them how simple it it -
like if I can do this anyone can. Well maybe not the whole truth but trying
to get potters to understand when they think they can't - well - makes the
job a lot harder.
I need the analysis for Pottery Craft frit # 2954 - described as a
calcium/borate frit.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Best regards, RR

Hello Musa, I wonder if you have any other analyses handy, i.e. Podmore 2246?
I'm attempting to match a glaze from the U.K. using frits available here in
the U.S. from Ferro or Fusion.
T.I.A.
