------------------
Hello All=21 Well, here's the first installment of my runny glazes =26 slips=
that
give the appearance of such. Please, I don't profess to the level of =
chemical
knowledge required to speak of food safety, so use at your own risk. My =
notes,
when I had written notes, are included. Also, if anyone else on list has
runny/textured glazes they'd like to share, please do, and I am also ALWAYS
looking for new oxidation tenmokus.

I will try my best to get the rest together later this coming week.
