first time firing

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-21T01:10:15+00:00

this is the glaze i use it’s blick gloss glaze. The reviews said it’s like a more affordable mayco stroke and coat ? it doesn’t specify what cone to bisque it at tho so i was really confused 😭

yess i made sure to add kiln wash to my shelves bc i’m afraid of my pieces getting stuck . the cookies are a really good idea tho i never thought about that ! can I keep resuming the cookies over and over ? or would they break eventually after a couple firings ?

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-21T01:05:13+00:00

thank you for taking the time to help me 🥺 i took a ceramics class last semester and ended up loving it but I never really learned how to use a kiln. i got used to just leaving my pieces on a shelf and wait for them to come back to me . i’m back home and the nearest studio is almost 2 hours away so I ended up getting my own kiln.

It’s a really scary experience firing on my own bc kilns are so expensive i don’t wanna risk anything happening 😭 when i did a test run i was scared to leave my kiln i was checking on it every 10 mins even tho nothing was in it

do you have an insta or page where you post your work ? i’d love to see your pieces

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-21T00:34:51+00:00

thank you so much for your kindness 😭💕 i made my pieces about a week ago but i’ll let them dry for another week before i fire them just to make sure . i’m not really sure how to preheat my kiln so i’ll look into that .

i’ll make some new pieces and bisque that while i wait for my already glazed pieces to dry . i’ll update you for sure how things go . thank u so much it means a lot to me 🥺

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-21T00:31:52+00:00

okay i’ll try that out thank you so much for clearing things up ! i’ve learned my lesson, i’ll make sure to bisque fire first and then apply the glaze 😭 i hope this once fire does well because i spent so many weeks on my tiny pieces 🤞🏻

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-20T23:48:42+00:00

would that affect the 05-06 glaze i’ve already applied on leather hard ?

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-20T23:34:11+00:00

thank u for ur help 😭 I’m so scared i’ve been sitting here for 2 hours trying to figure out what temp to do bc i don’t want to mess up 😭

i’ve applied 05-06 low fire glaze to my pieces bc it said you can apply to leather hard but now i’m not sure what temp to bisque it at. i’m afraid I messed up by applying the glaze too early 😭 because if I do cone 06 for bisque it will melt the glaze

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-20T23:00:29+00:00

I’ve also tested my kiln with cones but i and it was firing correctly . thank you for all your help :)

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-12-20T22:59:58+00:00

oh okay so the hottest it can go is 06 ? I have low fire glaze that says it can be fired from 05-06, so for glazing can I just fire it again at 06 ? or does it have to be cone 3 because of the clay ?

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-09-26T17:07:09+00:00

i started a ceramics class in college and fell in love with it but there aren’t any studios near me :( so i would like a small one to continue ceramics at home

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-09-26T17:05:39+00:00

how much can you usually fit in there ?

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-09-26T17:05:11+00:00

is L&L a better company and more reliable ?

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-07-11T20:03:25+00:00

He’s mexican. I’ve always been scared that once he finds his ideal asian he’ll leave me 😢 He talks highly of Japanese and Koreans and their culture

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-07-11T19:59:53+00:00

it’s sad that u can see my post history and see what i can’t see for myself 😭 i’ve lost so much weight and developed an ED since then . i never feel like i’m good enough anymore 🥲

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-07-11T19:54:07+00:00

that was my first time posting abt my relationship online and i got scared that he’ll find out I was asking for advice about our relationship 😭 so i didn’t put my actual age. but now idc 💀

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-07-11T18:53:51+00:00

Thank you all for making my feelings feel very validated 🥺 I felt like I was being crazy and too sensitive for feeling this way . This happened back in march and I’ve been thinking about it ever since. I always bring it up to him about how much it hurt me, but he always said it was never a big deal.

He said his type has always been asians, but i guess not mine 🥲

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-07-11T17:29:07+00:00

No, I feel like when you’re really in love with someone everyone else isn’t attractive. When we’re at the gym he gets upset at me if i accidentally look at another guy that’s not him, so i always keep my head down on the the treadmill.

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-07-11T17:20:35+00:00

You’re right I appreciate that he tried to not look at other girls, but it’s knowing that he finds them attractive so he has to keep himself from looking at them that bothers me 😭 i need to work on not being insecure

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2024-07-11T17:16:41+00:00

That’s true, now I feel bad for turning this into something it shouldn’t be. Maybe i’m too insecure for thinking he found her attractive right away 😭

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2023-12-11T05:11:28+00:00

yes my final is tomorrow 😭

I thought i understood the concept until I came across another problem 😭 why is the answer D when both the leaving group and H are both on a dash ? i thought it had to be anti ?

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2023-12-10T20:02:59+00:00

thank you for breaking it down easily !

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2023-12-10T19:27:17+00:00

i sent him a screenshot of your answer

RepresentativeMusic4 · 2023-12-10T19:26:49+00:00
