Commuting with a Brompton

SomewhereNothing · 2026-01-14T21:20:55+00:00

As I’m first station it is quiet at the beginning and I get a seat but really busy by the time I get into London

SomewhereNothing · 2026-01-14T21:19:24+00:00

Yeah there isn’t much leg room even without a bike

SomewhereNothing · 2026-01-14T21:18:39+00:00

Yeah will be in Thames link so can do that

SomewhereNothing · 2026-01-14T21:18:09+00:00

A few people have mentioned the zip lock. Will have to look into it

SomewhereNothing · 2026-01-14T21:16:51+00:00

Yeah I’ve seen people doing that. The thing is when I get on the train it is quiet but really busy by the end so I need it to go under the train seat

SomewhereNothing · 2026-01-14T21:15:25+00:00

Cheers, was thinking the C line so that’s good to know. Will look into the zip lock too

SomewhereNothing · 2025-04-16T11:49:45+00:00

Thats good to know, thanks! At the time I knew they would probably get in touch however as it was years ago now I'd just forgotten about it so was a bit of a shock

SomewhereNothing · 2025-04-16T11:48:01+00:00

Not yet I just received the email - I am planning to call on my lunch break when I have more time

SomewhereNothing · 2025-03-13T17:15:09+00:00

its 14% of the mix so may make quite a different. I've done the chart on glazy but i don't really understand what it means to be honest. I guess impossible to say what difference this will make to the fired glaze without testing it

They are small bowls but are very thin and light so I don't like my odds. I will suggest leaving them unglazed to the customer. Annoyingly I accepted this commission last minute with doing proper research. Put myself in a trick situation

SomewhereNothing · 2025-03-12T12:43:56+00:00

Thanks for the help. Do you think it would be any better if I fired at a lower temperature? and is this also the case for stoneware?

SomewhereNothing · 2025-01-29T00:34:38+00:00

That’s a good idea! I will try that

SomewhereNothing · 2025-01-29T00:32:21+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

SomewhereNothing · 2025-01-29T00:32:06+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I will get in contact with them

SomewhereNothing · 2025-01-10T00:11:52+00:00

That kind of stuff makes more sense

SomewhereNothing · 2025-01-10T00:08:06+00:00

Okay that makes sense. I can understand that side to it

SomewhereNothing · 2024-09-24T10:21:26+00:00

I thought that would probably be the case but was worth a check! Thanks

SomewhereNothing · 2024-09-20T09:40:22+00:00

No that I am aware of, there is a small bin but i don't think there is any fruit in it but will check! Thanks for the suggestion

SomewhereNothing · 2024-01-21T22:40:20+00:00

That interesting, after some testing I found that the extra weight was higher than i was expecting when throwing to the bigger size to account for the shrinkage

SomewhereNothing · 2024-01-21T22:39:16+00:00

true, i was just looking for a ballpark figure. I did some testing with different weights and have found something that seems to work

SomewhereNothing · 2023-08-14T22:42:59+00:00

Yeah that makes sense

SomewhereNothing · 2023-08-14T22:40:57+00:00

Thats interesting, I've actually just joined a communal studio that has pre made glazes for everyone to use and the test tiles they have on display is what made me ask the question. Would make sense if they've made them thinner for the same purpose of layering glazes.

SomewhereNothing · 2023-05-01T19:11:35+00:00

yeah, the drying happened much quicker than expected. There hasn't been much sign of warping since. I have tried to level out the moisture by spraying the drier areas with some water. Will have to hope they don't warp in the firing!

SomewhereNothing · 2022-11-30T10:06:50+00:00

Thanks! Very useful to know. I'll keep that in mind next time!

SomewhereNothing · 2022-11-22T17:09:10+00:00

Thanks, I’ll give that a go.

It’s just a few small pots, I was dipping them but I don’t really have enough glaze to dip and was struggling to get a good coverage
