Hale Tiki did this drawing of how the mug should look. I had all his glaze choices except one for the seahorse which I purchased. For the background of the mug he wanted this glaze that I'd used for the last swap. I told him that it would run but its what he wanted. My first mistake with his mug was to say OK. If a glaze melts to have streaks it is because it is made to move on the surface. It doesn't care if something is in the way. Progress Report on the Crawl Mug Check List Pour 50 mugs for the crawl. Check/done. Pour enough to satisfy Dan and do glaze tests. Should be done by the end of the week. I managed to sand 12 but then I've had to stop for a few days to recover. I sent Dan out to watch the molds dry but he took a book to read so the time would pass faster. Sneaky boy! Until tomorrow, Wendy
