Thank you Guinea. I love making this stuff. This is part of my show for june at our coop gallery. I am especially proud that this made it through the cone 10 firing with NO CRACKS. Lots of secret holes poked up into the slugs from underneath. Laguna b mix with grog. rakuku -

yeah, this chemical was not sprayed but rather a packet of the granular stannous chloride placed near the pieces, allowed to ignite and then covered with a metal canning pot. we wore respirators and guarded the area to keep others away. there is only a few minutes of whitish smoke which dissipates quickly but i am told it has a hideous smell and is toxic. managed to do it without experiencing it. we are at a group studio so i do this rarely and only at odd hours with helpers. rakuku -

Love this foil saggar stuff. Do you use terra sig on these? rakuku -
thanks for the kind comments. I had a lot of fun making these. Oddly, they do not sell well. go figure. rakuku

these are fired first with a commercial low fire and then raku fired and fumed with stannous chloride. The fumes released are seriously nasty. I learned this at a workshop and its not something to try without an experienced person to teach you. The method is described in the Alternative Firings book. rakuku
