Thanks everyone for all the help!

I rec'd the following from KEITH PANKHURST--and I've found it to to =
produce a nice yellow color for ^ 5/6. Thank you Keith!

Custer feldspar 40
Gerstley 18
Whiting 16
EPK 10
SIlica 16
-------
100

Mason Stain 5450 6

I've found that the optimal firing schedule for my Kiln is--

200 degrees F/Hr to 1200 degrees F
300 degrees F/Hr to 1800 degrees F
175 degrees F/Hr to 2126 degrees F

Hold 15 minutes

(Cool down)
390 degrees F/Hr to 1868 degrees F=20
175 degrees F/Hr to 1472 degrees F

Shut off kiln and let cool naturally

Thanks again Keith!
