observations about throwing big pots by
ProfessorSparky
I like to throw big, but as yet I'm still self-taught and
what I am doing is throwing them in one go and using porcelain.
This is difficult, I find. I tend to throw thin and a large
porcelain piece doesn't like that, no matter how much I dry it
with a metal scraper. Nevertheless I've gotten...

Old Kress Kiln by
GaSeku
I recently bought an old cress kiln. It's probably over twenty years old. The
outside looks its age but the inside looks almost brand new. All of the
elements are working and the cord seems in good shape. Is there anything else
I need to check before firing it up? Thanks all!

Sue Roessel Dura
I have an Olympic Kiln model 2723E (electric) that is about three years old. It
has been through about 100 or so firing cycles and yesterday suddenly two of the

Susie

which has been fired to 1250C.
What I was wondering was if there is sufficient 'glaze base/cover'
deposited by the colours to enable me to use lustres on top of them? Has
anybody got any suggestions? Also, would it work if I...

Actually I have several somewhat related questions
1. I have some pieces that I used wax resist on for decoration. A

I plan to venture into the world of 'onglaze' painting. The books I have,
go on about all the various oils required to use as a medium. The pottery
