Flashing Slips minus wood/soda/ash

[rdrr]

I see flashing slips generally associated with wood/salt/soda fired atmospheres.  My question is do they work in a gas reduction firing without the addition of soda or salt?  if so does anyone have any examples that they care to show? 

 

Thanks

They don’t work especially without the ash or sodium to react with, no. They’ll just be regular looking slips in an otherwise unaltered reduction firing. They need the uneven application of whatever’s carried by the flame to do the interesting things that they do.
