I will be making some specials later, my husband wants 10. The mold will be destroyed when I have made 100 total (crawl/Dan/specials). Update on the making of the crawl mug. Update on the Sacramento Cap City Crawl mug. 52 of 60 ($80 each) have been sold as of today and I need one too! One of the experiments I did was to see if a Duncan CN glaze would stay put when painted on top of a Duncan IN or Specialty glaze. It did not. In fact it even ran. So to add color to my Sacramento Crawl mug I must scrub off the sprayed on glaze wherever I want to add a CN glaze. I cut up a scratchy backed sponge into little pieces. I wet them and scrub with the green scratchy side and then wipe with the sponge. Wash the sponge and start on the next mug. These little pieces last for 2 mugs and then are thrown out. I times it and I can scrub 5 mugs in one hour. The white areas are where I removed the glaze. Front. Palm Tree. Palm Tree and stake. Here's one hours worth of work. When I finish 5 then I put a coat of the Mayco Crystal glaze on top of the over-spray I talked about before. Five done 55 to go. At the end of a long day I brought some to the table where I had put out all the CN glazes I will use for color on these mugs. This is why I started these mugs the first week in January. I'll need all the time I can get to finish them. Cheers, Wendy
