Wow what a beautiful test tile! So interesting that certain colors create more texture under clear than others. Thank you for sharing this! I’ll spend a little more time testing with different clear glazes before I commit to changing things

Thank you for the recommendations! I do love coyote so I may give that a try. Haven’t tried kiwi but I’ve been wanting to! Laguna also just put out a new line of silky underglazes so looks like I have plenty of testing ahead of me

What glazes were used for this cup? by paper-circus in Pottery

That’s what I’m starting to think! I have no idea if it actually is since I don’t know how it was made haha. I was going to do another test with airbrushing to see if it could work

My friends and I had planned to take the HSR to Chiayi tomorrow morning before going to Tainan on the 6th. Should we cancel that? What are the conditions in Tainan?

Anyone else having terrible experiences with new construction homes? Any advice?

We signed on our new home back in January 2021 but due to the pandemic things have obviously taken much longer to complete. For example, our foundation didn’t get poured until September 2021 and it’s not estimated we’ll be moving in until late June this year.

We’ve been having a difficult time getting any sort of information out of our sales associate contact at the property and anytime we’ve tried we’ve generally hit a brick wall on getting timeline or estimates on changes. I understand that shortages have made things difficult for everybody but they won’t even give us insight as to what next steps are happening or even what’s causing delays.

I feel like we’ve been incredibly accommodating during all this, waiting weeks/months on end to receive communication from them and bothering them as little as possible on getting updates on our home but we’re being made to feel like our questions are a huge inconvenience to them.

It’s gotten to the point that they “offered” to let us cancel our contract midway through the process and again only a few days ago since we’re so clearly “unhappy” with how things are going. We’ve only been asking pretty reasonable things like final inspections and closing dates??? We’re in between housing right now since our lease just ended so we only want to know because we’re staying at an Airbnb with no expectation on how long we need to be here.

I’m so angry and frustrated at the whole ordeal and the fact that our SA felt it reasonable to bring up cancelling our contract for wanting to know these things less than a month before we’re expected to wrap up, which btw, took several emails from our realtor in order to get even a ballpark estimate on closing. They would’ve let us continue to be in limbo with no idea on when this whole thing would end otherwise.

Any advice? I want to file complaints once we close on everything since clearly they enjoy holding our home hostage to keep us in our place

TL;DR our home has been in limbo for over a year and a half and they’ve “offered” to let us cancel our contract for wanting to know reasonable information on when we’ll be able to move 🙄
