Ron, you gave this formula; but it doesn't add up to 102 as stated. Is there
a mis-type or missing ingredient?
Barium Carb - 31.5
Whiting - 3.5
Zinc Ox - 7.5
Custer - 23.5
Silica - 20.5
Bentonite - 2
Total 102.0RR

Usually, bentonite is an addition to the glaze, much like a colourant. It's
a suspender (as you probably know) and I've never seen it factored into the
glaze recipe.
