I Tested Special Effect Puffy Glazes — Here is What I Got!

In this video, I dive into a series of special-effect glaze tests focused on achieving puffiness, crawling, and texture through variations in the R₂O: RO ratios. I tested glazes with identical silica and alumina levels but different amounts of fluxes (like Nepheline Syenite) and got fun results.
