Transparent Clear Glaze

Posted 25 Sep 2012

Hi

Maybe someone could point me in the right direction here. I normally use commerical transparent glaze and fire to 1000C. This glaze works fine and fits my clay. I have the chance to get my hands on about 100kgs of another brand of commerical glaze, (very cheaply hence the question) however this glaze pings and shows very fine cracks on the test pieces, not fitting the clay properly. I have no real experience in glaze mixing, where could I start in adding a flux? What would help?

Thanks Trina

What not to do

Posted 25 Jun 2012

Do not try this at home....

Unloaded the kiln for the millionth time and there it was, a little round drop bubble of beautiful green glaze. Umm I will just brush that off me thinks. As my hand is in motion I already know the result but toooooo late. Fingers sliced way open.. so now I have them super glued up and have to wait for three days or so until the worst has healed. Arrggggg.. reminds me of the time I stuck the drill bit in my mouth to see how hot it was.....

lovely
