    hi LoneWolf, I have been doing Raku since 1 968 when Paul Soldner gave a workshop to local colleges in Phila. I also served on the technical staff for Ceramics Monthly focus on Raku. What type of research are you working on? Marcia

    ^6 for functional work. Low fire for experimenting with alternative firings. I am moving my soluble salts to ^6 in the near future with a glaze. Meanwhile, using a small amount of earthenware for a pit firing coming up in may with friends. Marcia

    Another note, while tapping the plaster you can use a spray bottle of diluted alcohol t break the surface tension of air bubbles as it is setting up. keep tapping until you don't have anymore bubbles surfacing. Marcia

    you can do it with a metal tine and 6 layers of toilet paper around the piece. Match the size of the can to fit the piece if possible. Bisque the piece to Cone 08. Don't fire much hotter than 950F.

    I use cobalt sulphate for the base and calcium chloride flakes for the dots.
