    Welcome Ann,

    The Sankey Glaze database is just text. Use your browser's "Find" utility to scout out key words of what you need on that extremely long page.

    Unfortunately, other recipes are scattered all over the thousands of pages of this network, some semi-organized under glaze topics, some nearly at random. Use the search box at the upper right if you know the name of the glaze you are looking for. You can browse the pictures if you want to look first, and then look through the associated comments for recipes, and finally you can contact the posting artist of any picture and ask for a particular recipe. 

    If you are looking for a robust text and pictures, searchable, editable, co-operative glaze database, and agree to enhance it periodically with a few pictures and notes from your own testing, then consider joining the Insight-Live Users group.

    As I said, the Sankey glaze database has no pictures, it's just a long text file we imported. 

    Yes, one way to find glaze recipes is to look through the images here on the network. Comments appear under the pictures, sometimes with the recipe if someone has requested it, or the artist was thoughtful enough to provide it.

    Below are a few areas that have concentrations of glaze recipes and pictures.

    The cone6pots network is a community, not a textbook. With over 58,000 pages on the network, it is necessary to dig to find what you're looking for. If you want to be an editor and help add some organization to the network, the job is open.

    Most of the glaze recipes from Sankey have been copied over to our Insight-Live.com group database. The Sankey recipes remain mostly text-only there, but it is a real, interactive database, and you can add your own photo results and notes right into the record of any of the recipes. Members are slowly getting around to actually posting results on the database and the more we do, the more valuable the database becomes.
