G GROG Grand Member (1 year) Tujunga Joined: Jun 21, 2006 Posts: 7548	G GROG Posted posted on Tue, Aug 18, 2009 12:34 PM Squiddlers, GROG' "Pigi Bob" came out pretty well, except for the damned glaze flaking off. Same thing happened on the salt shaker. GROG thought it might have been underfired bisque on Salty Bob, but Pigi Bob had a good full bisque fire, so it's the damned glaze. GROG get a different underglaze, and refire, and we should have bacon soon. GROG gotta go out-of-town for a week, so GROG work on Pig when GROG get back.
