While at NCECA I had the oppourtunity to watch
Halldor Hjalmarson in action and picked up his cone 10
adhering slip recipe, which he generously provided on postcards.
I had been interested in using his
method on my tiles ever since reading an article in the
March/April 03 "Claytimes".
My question is, how do I change this for use at cone 6,
or does it even need to be changed? My husband bought
Glaze Master for me at Christmas but I am not "educated" with it
yet.
The recipe he passed out at NCECA was a little
different than the one printed in "CLAYTIMES"
so I will give the newest one here;
EPK 25
Ball clay 30
Feldspar 20
Silica 15
Zircopax 5
Borax 3
Bentonite 2
"The above mixture should be added to a liquid which
contains 2/3 water and 1/3 glycerin.
For each pint of slip, add one teaspoon of CMC in gel form."
