Terra Cotta: My musings on...and resulting actions with.

Our Walmart pickup order is actually tomorrow, mid-day. We have a few other errands to run as well in Green Bay.. so realistically it might have to be thursday.

I think I’m understanding the principle.. I will approach ... “fire-room breath” differently. :)

That’s actually a low-fire glaze I was given for Christmas.. Jungle Gems, Masquerade, I believe it’s called... that pot is intended FOR the person who gave me the glaze. :)

The little Couch/jewelry holder’s glaze is: AG11(DG06) (.2 add CuO to “excess”) )these notes mean ALMOST nothing outside of my notebook.) 🤣 But I noticed running (powdery) green WITHIN my powdery WHITE... NEAT!

At some point,
That point wasn't far. 740F. Stalled. Trying to up the gas and it dropped temp. Turned the gas back down a bit lower than it was and got a temp rise, but only back up to 740F. My output hole is roughly the same size as my input hole at this point. So I can't close the damper(out)more. Opened it a little, little more gas, rising slow again. I'll probably stall again a couple times, where adding gas (like .1psi) will help a couple times, then I'll have to open it a bit more and add gas. Till about 2K where it will be all wide open and hot AF!

These Notes are for when you fire this kiln, or yours.

Our conversation got me readjusted in my thinking..

So I made this type of apparatus for the “door”... I believe it will aid in control.

Also, realizing the actual “equation” of realistically UTILIZING my 2/5 of a Hank-Tank.... I decided to invest in another tank...
 
Maybe it is british english? Or australian? Or Canadian?
Anyway, I picked it up in one of the places I lived I suppose.
No it’s totally a common phrase.. I was just referencing “levi” the guy in that video confusing the word “leg”...
