Its time to return to Fireball Island, and in this episode we finally get the board finished!!
That's right explorers, join me as I complete the lid, solder the switches, and prep the playing pieces to get this re-imagines vintage boardgame to a playable state in time for the new year. I cant believe the project is nearly complete!

I look forward to every Fireball Island video. I’m secretly hoping it never gets finished.

Same here😂. Plus, I wanna see some video of you guys playing this!
I love watching your videos and how your brain works. It definitely motivates me to just move forward and not stress about perfection or get stuck and just stop because my project isn’t coming to life EXACTLY how I envisioned it.

Thank you! I’m definitely learning to not chase the ideal image I have in my head - it can be hard at times 😅
Love the fact you used Pelican Case Grid Foam for storage on your Fireball Island game! Thank you for sharing your work in ceramics too! You have so much vital knowledge!

When you open KZread and see a new episode of Fireball Island! So cool to see it in a playable state at last. I'm hoping to see some footage of the game being played when it's all ready and done. Hope you had a blast playing it finally. Wishing the best for 2023 to you.

I’m sure it’s safe to say that we all appreciate whatever content that you have to add to this series, maybe even a playthrough? Or at least a complete walkthrough of the final project completed. Thanks!

Ha! Yeah - the Woodpecker tools are pretty pricey, but extremely well made. I wait till they have sales (their sales are great!) and snap them up then.

Hey, i have a clay question, im new to pottery, and cant find an answer online. Not sure if I'm wording it correctly... So i bought this clay, (amaco #38 white stoneware) and it says its to be fired at cone 5- cone 10. Does that mean i can fire between the two?? It says better fit for cone 5 but makes an excellent cone 10. So idk whats best to use .can i go to cone 6? . and not sure what to bisque it at and then to fire it at. Im sure it depends on the type of glaze i use, but idk what is best to do before i invest all this money buying glazes.. i plan to do dinnerware items then some sculpture ideas and garden items as well.

Good question! I’d give Amaco a call and talk with their clay makers. They are super helpful, and I’m guessing they will tell you that the clay can fire anywhere between cone 5 and 10. The big question is, what temperature does it vitrify at (that is the point where it will no longer absorb water). The clay body I use can go between cone 5-6, but works/feels best at cone 6.
