copy. (stupid me) and help from you gurus out there?
thanks

check out the clayglazexplore link on my web site
The basic stoneware glaze there is good for most cones in the mid temp range
some variations are suggested
Very reliable, good natured glaze...all by volume no need to weigh anything
4parts 3134 frit, 4 china clay, 2 feldspar, 2 silica, 1 whiting, 1
talc, 14 to 17 parts water
Its all I have used for years with colour variations for functional work

best wishes

Brian
