  1. yes, I have established the basic shape with fingers, then finish the bellying with CD from top to bottom, last touch of rim and that's it. this way I know the rim can handle the expansion of the interior.
  2. I use a CD as a rib for bowls but have always worked from top down when doing the shaping, any thoughts on this?
  3. HI Andrea, lovely pots, I have never tried spraying but you have had quite a success here. Well Done! Gold Lustre! wow, so three firings? Is the lustre a reduced firing?
  4. sorta one step on from apple cooker, with Min on the one pot must be versatile in use to make it in my kitchen, same technique with bit extra, a candle stick holder, made by then opening centre core of clay , pulling up, turning down for flat rim, doing same to outer rim, attaching a little handle , wee Willie winkie style.

      Go to the browse tab at the top, then there is a sub area called Gallery.

      yeh but in old forum you could go to everyone's albums in Members where there was an alphabetical list of all members and one could access their albums not just recent uploads..

      When you go to the Gallery, click on the box at the top left box labeled "Members Gallery". It is all members with gallery pics and has 42 pages, though not alphabetical by member name or the avatar name.

  6. my question would be. If you wanted to and had the means, which part of the process would you assign to an apprentice/assistant?

    So you're adding the oxides after Glaze application? Oxides to a clear glaze? Recharge/discharge chemistry?

    Are you spraying your glazes, I don't get the unevenness of the green glaze application on the main body of the glaze..
