Here's one of the finished lamps.  Using low power LEDs.  Not bad for a prototype!

that worked out so well, how about imagining me actually working in my studio instead of walking through it.   staying up in w. v. instead of florida this winter reminded me of exactly why i do not stay here freezing.   maybe next week, 3-4 days of cold rain start tomorrow.

Thanks, this glazeless application was definitely a new process for me, but I still can't sell anything right now so instead of making mugs and bowls every night I've turned to drugs. Wait, no, not that, I've turned to just having fun with stuff and not making things that have a price tag.
Crackle slip, iron wash, and then soaked in a mixture of soda ash, sodium silicate and bone ash.
Came out just how I pictured it in my mind beforehand!

reminds me of an old (1910) metal lamp base.  crackled slip???  nice job on color and finish.   two thumbs up.

Sounds like a fault with the clay, not with your methods.
You may be drying it out too much with your wedging.  If it's pugged clay from the manufacturer try just using it straight from the bag and see if that helps.  
Some clays are just short.

working on plates....

Here's what I've been up to in my free time.  Been making LED lamps.  Here's a few of the prototype designs. In greenware with crackle slip.

Goes both ways, I get it from men and women.  It's uncomfortable for me, so I try to make it as uncomfortable for them as possible too by pretending I know nothing about the movie and have them explain the scene.  Works pretty good.
I accidentally watched the movie when I was a kid, I thought it was gonna be scary, but it was just dumb.

I will have to pretend I have never heard of Ghost movie next time someone mentions it to me.  Sounds like a blast.  Denice

One females take on this...It's not so much that the scene in Ghost was staged, it's a movie and it's expected. What does bother me about it is when some random guy at a market gives me a pervy look and asks something along the lines if I make pots like that. ick!
