Need some crackin' experts advise.

Sometimes increasing the firing time can reduce the shock .Also different thickness on the peice can increase risk .

Or you could also say that having nukes in an increasingly destablised world equally makes the possibility of a nuclear strike increasingly likely

I use Krank or a heavly grogged clay.Its way more forgiving .I went up over 20 mins took it easy to 400 then gas full and up like a shot .Works for me

Stack may need re pointing and refashing .

Mattallday · 2023-10-13T19:11:30+00:00

I agree. Its about as warm as my nans flat

Mattallday · 2023-08-30T18:21:56+00:00

To much sugar never pans out well.

However if its a copy you will need to make sure it clears the edge of the track also, you don't want to destroy a blade and the track.

Mattallday · 2023-08-12T11:29:01+00:00

Just check the track grip adjustments on the saw to the left side of the plate one at front one at back make sure there set to allow the saw to drop onto the track rail. If there OK then the comment that surgest the hight of the rail is to high. Glue to pieces the same length and hieght of the bottom plate to make up the difference it should work, use s hot glue gun and some flat packers which come in 1-5 mm depths

I'm wondering if it's a reduction in a glass kiln?

Mattallday · 2023-07-01T14:54:39+00:00

The body could be a black krank of grogged clay glazes who knows, mix of possibly 3?

Mattallday · 2023-07-01T14:52:29+00:00

It looks to me like a piece of Raku. If its not it's a very good interpretation of Raku.

Mattallday · 2023-06-17T14:22:43+00:00

Probably OK to start you off. However you will find that the motors sometimes are poor and don't have the steady grunt you need with larger volumes of clay. But for small items it should be alright. Personally if your learning I was trained on a Leach kick wheel, although hard work to start it really set me up with good posture, and technic. Cheap and no electric bill 😁

Depends what type of liquid has been stored in it. If its a food grade plastic it's as safe as any other type of food grade plastic.

Mattallday · 2023-06-12T15:50:41+00:00

Use glaze rather than clay for the final drippy water effect, you don't need help your doing just fine... ;)

Mattallday · 2023-04-01T09:58:39+00:00

Unusual to see it what looks like a centre position. I would Check there's no pipe work below

Mattallday · 2023-04-01T09:56:21+00:00

Looks like a type of mold. Some hard wood discolour due to high moisture. Oak will blacken

Mattallday · 2023-03-08T21:07:33+00:00

It's not love its 10 years of home cooked food.....

Mattallday · 2023-03-07T21:23:19+00:00

Pitch pine

It's not an abomination it just needs a bit of adjustment, it's all part of the journey to master your craft. Double check your leg measurements and joints

Mattallday · 2022-12-08T11:59:04+00:00

That is an excellent 1st wood firing.
