    waiting for the showers to go away so I can fire my test tiles.

      We could use some of that rain, not a drop in almost 3 weeks. Hitting high 90's everyday does not help.

  2. Marcia Selsor

    waiting for the wind to die down so I can fire.

    was throwing today in my new studio. Yay! Now I am waiting for the electric company to hook up the power. But I will be ready with kiln loads of pots. POR FIN!!!

      So how long will the fires be stoked?

  6. Marcia Selsor

    we still have highs in the 90s here and high humidity. I need to get firing lots of loads but slow drying and really hot. I have to wrap burnished pieces to avoid sweat from touching them.

      What do you wrap them with and are you protecting them from your sweat or theirs. Denice

    Welcome Stephanie!!!

    I like the forum better than clayart as far as politeness goes. And not as sexist IMHO.

  12. Marcia Selsor

    welcome to the forum. I am originally from Philadelphia. My parents moved to York in 1980 when my dad retired. They are both deceased now. I miss Pa. and the autumn colors.

  14. Marcia Selsor

    Welcome to the forum. This should kit start your experiences with clay. Life is short so make the most of it. Take some workshops. You can get a lot out of them.

      You lucky dog, my son asked us to get rid of extra stuff around the house, he didn't want to deal with it when we died.

      have you tried to add anything else to the flour,sugar and yeast yet?

    2. Marcia Selsor

      Marcia Selsor

      no. I am still figuring out the straight mix.

      I get plenty of variation with that. Jose Ramos gets awesome results and sublties.

      Wish we had a LITTLE of your Summer. Temps here in PA have caused pool attendance to be way down. Average next week looks like high of 75.

  23. Marcia Selsor

    winter seems to be everywhere even in the tropics.

  24. Marcia Selsor

    with the next week with temperature 100 everyday, I may wait to fire.

  25. Marcia Selsor
