@finklepottery704 The root beer looks awesome layered with Coyote's gun metal green and/or the red glod too.

The mugs with the bike on the circle (moon?j with night sky colors reminds me so much of E.T. Love it!!!

I never thought of that! It’s perfect!

Beautiful stuff Lisa! Interesting about the differences with the normal cool over slow cool. I'm getting ready to mix a fresh batch of Temmoku and was debating whether to change my recipe, as I get too much crystallization and it turns a matte gold. But I think I've only slow cooled. so I may give it another chance with a normal cool. I'm looking forward to more unloads! Stay warm!

Yes I was also getting almost too much crystallization with the slow cool. I'd love to get it somewhere in between the two. i'll have to do some testing

Look at you all bundled up!! Lol Did you get an error on the kiln because it was so cold? If you have electricity out there run a space heater so the kiln doesn’t have to work so hard as well as not having it cool down too fast! I have a shed that isn’t insulated and I just run the space heater while the kiln is on and while it’s cooling and I haven’t had any problems since I started doing that. You definitely want to do the celadons in different directions or you will see the streaks. Just a make sure the layer beneath is dry before applying the next one and don’t let the brush drag. Make sure you have the brush full.

All good info. It was actually warm when it failed. Elements and thermocouple were past due replacing. I was just trying to avoid it lol

Have you ever done a video on how you do the lettering for the wordage on your mugs? So smooth the transition from one letter to another. So glad you got your kiln fixed

I have a video called making a medallion mug, tips and tricks. It shows how I letter my PEI girl mugs 😊

The gorgeous mug from around 4:30 looks awesome with your hat!! Have you seen the underglaze transfers from Elan Transfer shop but there’s a 2nd line called Dirty Deeks. They have all sorts of “salty decals”. Made me laugh & laugh! I had to get some of course. Lovely kiln opening! Congrats!

Hi and thank you for your videos! How many coats of Soft Red do you use? I had used it once with 3x and it ran to the bottom. It may have been with what I layered it with though. It’s so pretty paired up with River Birch

@finklepottery704

Hi yes it is very runny! I use two coats

One more question, the soft red, what brand is that glaze? Do you put anything over it to get the orange & other sunset colors? It’s amazing!

@finklepottery704

9 ай бұрын

Hi it is a spectrum glaze. It is quite runny on its own so I don’t layer it with other glazes. I agree. It is a very pretty glaze

Do you have any issues firing your kiln in a really cold shed?

@finklepottery704

9 ай бұрын

I’ve been firing in all weather for about 5 years now. Never had a problem. The kiln rep said to try to fire at least every few weeks because of moisture. A slow cool helps with the temp dropping too quickly when it’s really cold outside

Power Turquoise Seaweed over join Frosted lemon Is that correct for that mug?
