Silicon Carbide is arriving today. Going to mix up some test batches of some reduction glazes to experiment in oxydation chemically reduced! Lots of terrible glazes to come!

So, my fella is awesome. He found a grippy turnstyle thingy at a thrift store and got it for me. It has little padded prongs to grip cup-like objects for decorating, so I don't have to hold it while I underglaze!

Why does it take so long to post a thread, like I am back in 1997 on dialup xD No wonder people spam the post button staring at the blinky dots.

working on editing videos for online course. So much in such a little time!

That's it...no more wedging for me. Time to bust out a rolling pin and start slabbin'.

throwing today. getting my groove back!

Throwing pots for the first time in 4 weeks. Yay!

My wedding ring survived a batch of stoneware in the Peter Pugger...I always knew of my attraction to clay, but this takes it too far, methinks

Mudtools Do All Trim Tool, where you have you been all my life? Loop tool, we've had a great run, and I promise I'll call you when I need to do some sculpting...

Made a slip from my new clay formula and cast my 12 x16 arched tile mold yesterday. Popped it out of the mold and hour later and it is still perfectly flat this afternoon. First time that has happened.

Bisque load this week, glaze load next week. I've been trying some new designs so I'm very excited for this round of firing.

Helping a fellow potter (in return for free firing) -- kiln floor and bag wall, cut posts from brick, hung new lights. Salt fire next weekend.

Had to take the decision to move out my studio, a little sad but going to keep working as much as I can from home.

I made a mug from 4 lbs of clay, mostly as a joke. One of the first things to sell...

Went to an online site to buy some materials for "Magic Mud", ended up splurging on a Mudtool sponge and Do All Trim Tool, and a bevel cutter...

someone asked me to make a garlic shredder which was unfamiliar to me. I looked online and bought one to study. Does anyone make them and if so, what do you use to make the "bumps" that do the shredding? Thanks
