    Hello All,  Back when I was a crown & bridge lab tech we used to
    glaze our crucibles this way: Using a rosebud tip on your torch
    apply enough flame and heat  to the interior surface of the ceramic
    crucible and you can glaze very nicely this way-----no need for
    borax.  You can tell when it is starting to glaze by watching the
    surface become shiny as the surface starts to melt.  To all a nice day,  Gail
