Thanks guys :D

Wendy, they didn't melt but they had hundreds of glaze skips and boiled glaze inside the bottom. Not sure exactly what I did wrong but doing some experimentation. I poured the insides as I have 100 times before but I did a few things different, something cause a problem. I usually wet the inside before I pour glaze, this time I soaked them, maybe they were TOO wet? I also thinned my glaze some based on recommendations I had seen on the 'net, maybe too much? And they fired about 50 degrees too hot but that shouldn't be enough to cause a problem?

I have few new ones going into the kiln Saturday, we'll know by Sunday morning if I found my problem :lol:
