Hi Big Kahuna, I also have a paper list and you were right under him so I have corrected my error.

Today is the day sculptor's fear. We are making the mold. Looking at the detail the mold will be 6 pieces. I can also hope I don't damage it during this process. I'll be taking photos so there will those soon.

Meanwhile here are some more on the flame process. Cheers, Wendy

At this point I have made 60 flames and they have bisque fired.

Before Glazing they must be dust free or the glaze with skip and crawl. We use a strong spray of water inside and out to clear off the dust.

Then they need to dry overnight.

I filled each flame with glaze and then drained it out.

Next I hand painted three layers of glaze on the outside of each flame.

Dan's calling it is time to mold in the cold cold garage. Cheers, Wendy
