Jonathan you made some good points: ;-)) What I should be asking for is
"starting point" recipes for the cone 9/10 slips. Tony has some very
useful and valuable information on slip formulation at:

http://digitalfire.com/magic/slip.htm

I agree that a potter should be knowledgeable of his formulations. I am a
little overwhelmed by some of this slip and glaze chemistry, I will be the
first to admit. I am considering starting a glazes/claybodies/slips
calculations board at www.PotteryInfo.com if there is enough support and
interest in creating the additional board(s).. ....Marshall

I recently found the following response to a posting on PotteryInfo.com and
it has sparked some thinking this morning:

"I like many others simply do not have the desire, time and patience to do
my own formulations. I will be slip
casting with these slips and they will be fired to cone 9/10. I need a
porcelain slip and a stoneware slip. I trust your judgement. Could you
please post a recipe or two here?" .....
