Hi Ron and John and anyone else who was interested in this glaze. I finally
got around to testing it. I got a very nice blue but no purple. I will test it
again.

John, I wonder what results you got?

Thanks Ron.

Sorry. Sending again, as I forgot to enclose the recipe.

Hi Ron and John and anyone else who was interested in this glaze. I finally
got around to testing it. I got a very nice blue but no purple. I will test it
again.

Here you go - let me know if it needs some adjustment - there is a lot more
raw clay but also some frit to help melt it - hard to tell if it will
balance out.

It's really close in all respects - I will be surprised if it's not a good
sub.

Veena,

I have not worked with the RR revision yet. Maybe later. Kinda
snowballed with other things right now.
