John - Sure, I've been doing crystalline glazes at cone 6 for a few
years and gotten good results. Wrote an article for ClayTimes on this
subject in the Sept/Oct. 2000 issue. Listed a couple of most
successful recipes and discussed firing schedule. If you can't get a
hold of a copy, send me an email directly and I'll copy the info and
send it via postal mail.
Fara Shimbo has an e-book out on crystalline glazes and I found some
of her glazes listed for a higher cone worked just fine at cone 6.
Here's her web site: http://crystalline-ceramics.info/
