Nice shot of the dog. I could tell he was really being patient waiting for that clay to dry.
Very nice I like your dad's and granddads pieces.
Beautiful work, starting a salt glaze wheel class Monday, I'm so excited, this video is great!
Fascinating.
oooh that's a lot of black unburnt smoke from the chimney! anyway great video, thank you!
Definitely would be good for the air quality to add a catylitic converter to that chimney.
How much salt and what type did you use and pour into the fire? Excellent video, thanks.
normal table salt. and as a great instructor once said "add until you think it's good, then add a bit more, then your done." basically for things like this, add a bit more than you're comfortable with. i'm not a potter myself, but have spoken to some good ones.
Does this glaze withstand boiling water?
An amazing process, but at 4:25 he explains why it's no longer allowed for industrial ceramics producers. Vaporizing the salt just sends highly toxic chlorine gas directly into the atmosphere
cool!
Wow really beautiful!
So it's the salt that creates the glossy finish?
Would love to visit this place!
how long and what temperature does vitrification take?
bushiseshin 1300-1320 °c. I think around a 2 day firing perhaps.
first thumb up
I wonder how it was discovered that salt would cling to pottery in a molten state? Probably in an accidental fire.
It's believed that it was discovered when they reused salt covered wood from old brine barrels was for firing pottery
That was utter fluff. Not one bit of really useful info anywhere in it about salt glazing pottery. It was about that guy. Typical. And Disappointing.
damn what a boring family i had i introduced my kids to art and showed them ceramics however i can not work on ceramics cause i am♿
