I'm one of those lucky people who almost never get sick (fingers crossed), and have happy memories of making mud pies.

Programing Evenheat Perfect Fire For Bisque
Matt Oz replied to Fielding's topic in Equipment Use and Repair
From what I remember that controller didn't have much memory, so had a limited number of ramps per program. I think candeling or a slow start had to be a separate program, but I could be wrong. A ramp of 204oC looked to fast to me so I never tried it, I haven’t experimented around much with different rates. After a 60min soak at about 80oC, I do the almost 150oC \ hr (300oF) to temp for bisque. There are so many different firing schedules out there from manufacturers and potters, I find it confusing. -

Thank you Frederik. I had a photo of a lit lamp, but it wasn't very good, so I posted a new one that's a bit better. One of these days I'm going to have to buy a newer camera. -
Offcenter, I agree, it is difficult to show. I thought your video worked well, movement seems to help. I have not yet used Frost or Ice, but I have done many tests using the same New Zealand kaolin, and as far as I can tell using this clay body with NZ kaolin should be more translucent than them, but only because this clay is so highly fluxed and has lower clay content. It has to be fired in a form, or on something flat, and is actually glassy when mature. Thanks for your question. And thanks Trina -
Thanks
