looking for a nice running glaze

does anyone have a recipe for a base running glaze?  Yes, I know we all try hard to avoid this, but I'd like something to drip over the rim onto a colored slip surface, making nice pooly drips.  Thanks!

    This is a berry bowl I made a long time ago...I used a ^04 glaze over a ^6 glaze ( in this case, it's glossy base 1 from Mastering ^6 with some zircopax and rutile in it)  Anyway, the low fire green (and also the blue version) ran nicely on the ^6 glaze- a nice accent, but not off the pot..

    The ^04 base glaze is from clayart:

    Frit 3195 73

    Flint        7

    EPK         10

    Mg Carb    10

     

    probably 4% copper carb for green, about 2% cobalt carb for med. dark blue..

    enjoy!

    Hi, Ginny.  I landed here via a search for runny glazes.   I would like something like this for the rims of mugs and bowls.  I have a lot of portions of low fire commercial glazes.  I may try a couple of these just to do something with them.  Did you try the recipe that George Lewter recommended?  I would like to know how they turned out.
