Notes

*L3685U is a product of work done to match a white engobe to a vitreous fritted cone 03 red stoneware. However that slip is too vitreous for standard Terrastone 2 (which is not a vitreous body).
The first trial to adjust it for Terrastone 2, L3685X, is not dry shrinking enough and fire shrinking too much. This mix, Y, adds more bentonite and subs 5 frit for nepheline.

No hint of shivering on side of mug, but rim on one. However the slip is very thick on the rim, maybe this is part of the reason.
