MadDogMike we had fun taking you there. You need to come back for another visit. WaikikianMoeKele its fun to see Chippy get this attention. lunavideogames I'm pretty sure we are coming. We need to set up the house sitter first. I'll bring Mrs. Pac Man. More photos below on the bowl. TikiAno we'll miss you at Marketplace for sure. The lamps/actually a torch are a challenge for we who are inexperienced at buying parts. We'll make a good go of it. Chippy himself is awesome. Chippy thank you. Who drew this picture? All I did was copy his inspiration and he should get the credit. Big Kahuna that works for me! If I've made or are making something for you including the run of Severed Heads let me know if you are coming to the April 6th sale at Don the Beachcombers. Progress Report Wish List #3 19TikiChef62 here is the lesson of the day concerning the mixing of glazes with different firing temperatures. The metal glaze is made to fire at 04. So the first time in the kiln I did that and it came out very shiny. Then I glazed the women who had to fire at 06 which is cooler. This temperature took the metal glaze and made it pewter rather than shiny. I like it better I hope you do. Where the woman attached to the pot came out really well. This bowl is far from complete. I will be doing designs on the skirt, tattoos on the bodies, a ring around the band on the pot and faces on the women. Mr. Pac Man will not co-operate and is driving me crazy with small areas of glaze popping off. I had Dan dremmel, sand and wire brush him one last time. Then I glazed him again. I'm trying this many times (4) because I have space in the kiln. The Mrs. Pac Men were no trouble at all. The kiln is still not working right so the repair man is due here in an hour. I'll go glaze while I wait for him. Cheers, Wendy tikilongbeach I just saw you posted when I did. I like those ice cubes...take note Chippy! [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2013-03-21 09:38 ]
