    hey there potters! After a long rainy summer here in Maine I'm so happy to be back in my studio! Hope you all are well! Here is my questions du jour: I mostly work in Cone 10 B-mix, but also have done a lot of indigenous pit firing with earthen ware....I have a bag of mica and I'm thinking about wedging it into my B-mix 10....anyone have thoughts about how it works in high fire situations?

      Hi Carol, you would likely get more responses if you posted your question in either the Studio Operations or Chemistry section. This status updates section isn't searchable and it gets hard to find posts after old ones get bumped down the list. Re your question, are you looking for the sparkle qualities of mica? If so I've found the sparkles are burned out by cone 6 (and probably lower than that).

  9. Carol Will started following underglaze circles? Help!
  10. Carol Will
    Hi! I'm interested in applying underglaze in circles/disks on some pieces, and I've been trying to find a stencil or template to use for production. I've spent what feels like hours googling about this and I only find underglaze transfers, which I don't want, or hard stencils for drawing on paper, or painting on walls! Even on Etsy I can't find what I'm looking for. I've got all sorts of masking tape circles if I want to leave a blank space, or do a water etching, but I'm looking for something flexible I can hold or stick to the greenware, paint the underglaze which leaves a clean, perfect circle of color! Any advice?? I tried sponges, not the look I'm going for...but a sharp, crisp, clean painted circle!!! grateful for your wisdom!
