Glaze Calc.


Over the course of the past semester I have been running tests in order to create a glaze.  By running many different tests and line blends I was able to come up with a fairly stable base glaze that takes colors well.   Running all the tests and line blends has really helped me understand the materials a lot better.  Here is an example of the glaze on a test piece.
Base Glaze   Cone 6
Neph. Sy.           60 
Wollastonite       20
Frit 3124            20
EPK                  12
Zircopax            12
