<p>Hello, </p>
<p>I'm looking for a cone 6 base glaze recipe that is not just runny but will give nice big fat drips. I'd like to use this glaze as an accent. Since I'm making a wish list here, I'd also like the glaze to be able to take mason stains. Finally, it would be great if the glaze is food safe. Does a recipe like this exist? If not, I can do a cone 04 recipe if I have to.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks for your help,</p>

<p>Hi everyone! I've been working with clay for a little over a year now and my husband and I have decided that commercial glazes are becoming way too expensive. I would like to start experimenting with some engobe decoration.</p>

<p>Hi everyone! I've been working with clay for a little over a year now and my husband and I have decided that commercial glazes are becoming way too expensive. I would like to start experimenting with some engobe decoration.</p>
<p>My question is this, for example, if I am using a porcelain clay body and decide to liquify that same clay body to add a Mason stain to it, wouldn't it be compatible since the slip/engobe is the same as the clay used to make the piece? I would then mix up a clear coat to apply over the design after bisquing and fire again to make it food safe? I am new to mixing my own glazes and would like to know if anyone knows of a food safe clear coat recipe that is not too glossy, but more of a subtle sheen?</p>
<p>Any advice and help is greatly appreciated. I've been reading many articles and books, but just trying to find the most economical way to proceed with my work. Thanks!</p>
