Two people suggested replacing the Custer with Nepheline Syenite.
on the question I asked below. Would I replace it in the same quantity? I
think I saw a post from someone from ClayTimes on this list. Would there be
anyway to contact Tim Eberhardt and ask him what he used at cone 6?

There is an article in the new Nov issue of Clay Times giving a recipe for a
"Salvation Glaze" by Tim Eberhardt. He does not give any contact info. It
is for a cone 10 but he says it will also work for cone 6 with the addition
of a few ingredients to drop the melting point. I would love to try this
glaze, but fire at cone 5/6. Can anyone help me with the added ingredients?

Salvation Glaze cone 10 oxidation or reduction
custer feldspar 27%
gerstley borate 12%
dolomite 8.8%
talc 19%
om4 7.5%
silica 25.2 %

I guess my post didn show up.

replace any feldspar in a glaze, same quantity, with NS and it should
bring the maturation point down.
