  1. Don't know who Todd is, but really like this glaze too. Been trying some other low fire texture glazes. Will send you the new "favorite" Flamedrops after I get into the studio. Thanks for all your posts.

  6. This is Todd Leech but this is not my glaze. Thanks for thinking of me though when you think of texture. I usually fire to cone 10. Although last year I was testing some 04 textured glazes...

    Well, thanks for checking in. I guess the mystery continues. Wonder who came up with this glaze...
