If I remember correctly, the old stuff I used in the tests was powdery grey (given to me). I am going to wash the whole works of what's left of the new to see if that makes a difference next time. And you are right .... the results can make it all worth it! Feet have been up for a two days ... that's all that's allowed :) Brenda Neallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11403600271799933932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2935425215632709576.post-75834786930311596782015-11-16T13:38:00.353-08:002015-11-16T13:38:00.353-08:00Ok best blog post ever!

The stuff we have at school is very powdery so I am thinking it might be Tanko or Foote….. it's that old. I was ready to toss in the towel when the test tile came out of the kiln! It was beautiful and exactly what I was looking for, stoney matt, waxy, white, breaks on the edges. Fast forward to my studio and I have sparkly spodumene from Australia. I haven't mixed the test yet but will let you know …… what a pain! Hey the pots look great!! Hope you have your feet up and recovering :) Sandy Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10718069049436444431noreply@blogger.com
