Really love the tiles! But wait - sunken kilns??? Such innovation . . . the plan looks so well thought out, congratulations on starting on this project!
Amazing pieces again! And how wonderful that you Guys get to adapt your studio to your own wishes! I am 52 and hopefully soon building a new studio. But maybe I should be considering getting older into that too😅❤
I was on the fence about building a new studio. Then I had my doctor assess my health and she said I could go another 20 years, Ppphhheeewwww! Then a customer told me we only live once so I should do it. Since my boat house studio is threatened by the worsening storms I thought it best to get all my chemicals out of it and have a second back up studio in case of a direct hit from a hurricane. Hurricanes historically hit Nova Scotia every 7 years, we have had 3 in the last two years. Once it is finished in August we will probably not get a storm for years.Oh well.
Incredibly beautiful Vaughan and Jackie 👏 How exciting about the new studio, but can’t get my head around the lower kilns? a front loader like your gas kiln would be easier, but I suppose very expensive to buy new…
Just imagine a flat floor with a recess 3 inches down the shape of the lid or base, then no stand either, so it lowers the kiln 11 inches. I use a step stool to reach the bottom of my kiln which is 8 inches high so sinking it in will make changing the elements even easier. I have a call in with the kiln manufacturer to see if this is OK.
Your videos are wonderful! Thank you! Could you do a video on actually making tiles? How thick, how do you keep them flat, when do you put on the slip etc?
I have watched every one. There was one or two about tile frames and a few of carving but I can’t find the one about making tiles. But no problem. I have learned so much from you and Jackie and I’m so happy to have found you on UA-cam!! Thank you ☺️
OMGoodness...these tiles are OUTSTANDING! Just Amazing carving. You both are so talented.

Let's hope, the excavator arrived yesterday. The plans are changing as we consider options. Thanks.
Can't wait to see the completed multi-tile pieces fully-assembled!
NM I commented before video ended haha. Anyways, I love them!
LOVE LOVE All the tiles, Now I will be humming Bluenose in the town of Lunenburg down Nova Scotia way

The gas kiln would be $40K these days.
@@Vsmithpots That’s a lot of money Vaughan, well good luck speaking to the Electric kiln people and I’m looking forward to the start of the build 😊
You guys are AMAZING. Is there a video of your tile making please
Yes somewhere in my video history, browse a couple of years back.
Your videos are wonderful! Thank you! Could you do a video on actually making tiles? How thick, how do you keep them flat, when do you put on the slip etc?
I did one way back a couple of years ago. You can browse in my video history.
