Darcy Kane Posted September 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 I don't mind posting pic, but I don't know how. I tend to spend my time on studio issues, and don't get around to adding technology, but my WFB looks much like the cover of the book. I think the cooling has a lot to do with how this glaze looks. Email them to me and I'll post them for you. I'd love to see this glaze in "Technicolor" the way it should be. dkane17@myfairpoint.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clay lover Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 I have had the 'smarter than I am' phone for 3 days. I will try to do this. Thanks This glaze looks best on heavy texture, I think, most of the colors seems to show up in the thicker, thinner breaks in design. If I'm planning on using it, I put in definite ridges and also at the foot, to slow the run. The reds seems to show up mostly on flat textured pieces. Where it sheets or pools on flat smooth clay, it shows up as a grey greenish more dull color, not what I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilestrick Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 I fire a few thousand pounds of 112 in my studio every year, and occasionally get some pinholes/craters/globs like that, but only on the glazes that I know to be a bit unstable, like fake ash glazes. Firing your glaze to cone 6 may be just what it needs to settle down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Fireborn Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 Hmm, my Standard comes from Pittsburgh factory. Is your clay manufactured in Pittsburgh and shipped up, or is a local clay supplier manufacturing it under license, grype? I am not really sure as I don't have the boxes anymore. Next time I go to my supplier in Atlanta I will ask them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhPotter Posted September 29, 2014 Report Share Posted September 29, 2014 This is a portion of a tumbler with WaterFall Brown on the lower part and ButterScotch on the upper. Where the ButterScotch overlaps the WaterFall Brown is the upper 2 bands, the lower 2 bands are WFB alone. That dark spot has a slight indent to it. The clay body is Miller 55 from Laguna, a buff color. I fire to ^04 bisque and ^6, 2190* using Ron Roy's firing schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
