anthonymaye its was terrific to meet you. See you again soon.
MadDogMike I am baffled as to why my glaze that should crack doesn't and the glaze that shouldn't does.

I took a flash photo of Wolf Man Bob.

I'm doing a couple of tests to find out if it's the clear glaze or the brand of black under-glaze that has begun to run when I do Bob faces. Oh No, I just realized that I didn't put them in the kiln when I fired last night. They are still sitting on the counter. Oh well!

To cover the runny eyes on the volcano Bob I've covered the face with four layers of glaze. While doing this I noticed some crazing on the woman so I've added clear glaze to her body and face to see if it will heal her.

Three Bob's. Pineapple, Smooth and Pac Man Key Bob's.

Back of Pac Man.

Drying outside before firing.

Top shelf of the kiln.

Bottom shelf.

The kiln started at 8 PM so it might not open until Thursday. It's still not done. I do slow ramps at 13 to 15 hours determined by the preheat. Last night it was 2 hours.

Cheers, Wendy
