I heard that Val Cushing has handbook for potters. Can anyone give me a
brief revue of its contents? And how do I order it?
Thanks in advance.

Send check for $24 to:
Elsie Cushing R R 1 Box 236 1497 Waterwells Rd
Alfred Station NY 14803
Designed as a compendium of handouts accompanying
Cushing's class lectures, it has six sections:
Book list - over 70 books (both in and out of print)
and mags. both technical and inspirational
1. Clay Bodies and Raw Materials - notes on specific
raw materials; analyses of specific clays; recipes
for slips and clay bodies; method for terr sig with
and without a ball mill; more
2. Firing - bisque and glaze
3. Glazes and Glaze Formulation - explanation of UMF;
limit formulas; constructing your own C/9 base glaze;
conversion of a C/9 glaze to C/6; developing C/9
base glazes by BATCH WEIGHTS of materials; analyses
of feldspars and frits; common colors produced in
various types of glazes = very concise summary of
expected results with a given coloring oxide in a
given type of base glaze - in my OPINION, this section
is fairly unique & alone is worth the price of the
book; notes on color; more
4. Pottery Making Info - weights for various forms;
lids; an overwhelming number of ideas of what to make;
more
5. Glaze Recipes - over 100 recipes incl. low fire,
C/6, C/9-10
This is a summary, NOT an inclusive list of the
contents. Further qns, anyone feel free to write me
back off list.

I tried the email address for Val Cushing's glaze handbook that was
posted and I get a "undeliverable address"
Is there another email address?
