Bill Kielb Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Sorry I guess I do not understand exactly what you are asking. How about a picture of the bisque ware and what parts you have changed your mind about or the pieces that are inside the clay you are wondering if Still ok to be fired. Gypsum to me is: wallboard / drywall / plaster like substance, so I really am not clear on what your question is. Sorry, Just trying to understand fully before suggesting an answer.

Bill Kielb Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Very important to my understanding: Assuming this made it through the bisque firing in one piece, did you intend on glazing it and glaze firing or was this to be the finished product if it had not cracked?

Stac Posted April 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Yes)) just try to find a correct way to deal with this cos gips with i use ( maybe unfortunately) started to create dump in brown clay. so it's possible that second firing with transparent glaze can safe all of this?

Stac Posted April 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Yes the sculpture must be finished product Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Kielb Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Without really understanding this fully my suggestion is: If this is a finished product I would simply glue the two pieces using a good epoxy and finish the whole piece with a suitable paint. Not many things survive a firing so I am going with the safe suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callie Beller Diesel Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Glaze will not make this stronger: it does not act like glue. More heat from the kiln may also weaken your gypsum and make it brittle. I agree with Bill about the strong epoxy and the paint. Not sure what you mean about “dump.” Are you worried about the plaster coming out of the break? This can be sanded and smoothed down with sand paper easily.
