Glaze Firing Reveal and Repair

- Whew! Some strong emotions with this kiln opening. There was quite a bit of a learning curve with the Amaco Cosmos glazes (my lack of research on the glazes) and the process for cleaning up my mess. Extremely pleased with the Diamond Core sanding bats and the Advancer kiln shelves.
The pottery inside the glaze kiln includes custom mugs, a moon bowl and two bases for moon lamps, "swung" vases (my creations inspired by MCM glass), and pumpkins.
Thank you for joining me on my journey!

Nice job grinding the amber vase!!! You now can enjoy your beautiful work!
Yes! Thank you!
Good old Diamond Core. Your moon bowl and lamp bases look fabulous ❤
Thank you! I absolutely LOVE all of my tools that I've bought from Diamond Core. I'm planning on sharing that process in a future video. It's quite a process, so it will have to be another series. :)
So sorry about your melties! Love your Northern Lights bowl. Jasmine is super cute!
Thank you!!! I’m so glad you like my work. I’m getting ready to share how I make the pumpkins in my next video. I hope you’ll watch.
Sorry to see the melting but thank you for showing the repairs that was so cool to watch 🤩 also new subscriber here 😊
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. When I went out searching, I didn’t see much on the cleanup. My husband told me after cleaning the shelf that I should have recorded that also. Next time… but I truly hope nothing like that happens again.
Amaco has a long list of instructions for the cosmos glazes. Including how to make drip catchers because of how runny they are.
I believe I was just too excited to use them. Thank You! I will look into your suggestion on the drip catchers.
Wow!! Those cosmos glazes have really caused a lot of problems for people. They are super specific when being used in a regular firing without the right firing schedule. You also can not put a liner glaze inside the piece. So whatever you put the cosmos glazes on you can’t put any glaze on the inside or other side of the pot. I’m so sorry this happened but thank goodness for advancer shelves!! The kiln probably didn’t overfire. It’s just that the glaze has to be really runny for the crystals to form. The moons are amazing!!! Also the cosmos glazes are not food safe. Please don’t take my comments the wrong way I’m just trying to help. When using the grinding or sanding discs on the wheel you really want to keep a lot of water on the wheel because the force of the wheel is throwing the water off as well as it evaporating. The more water the better and safer for you. You want those little shavings to stick to the water and not fly into the air. I hope this helped. That’s for showing how you saved them!!
Thank you for your thoughtfulness. I truly appreciate your insight. There was no intention on using the Cosmos glazes for anything other than decoration. 😊
Sorry about your mishap! I aspire to a set of shelves like those. I have a d core brand disc like yours. Works great but $$$. Recently I ordered a set of four flexible diamond sanding pads from Amazon. Dirt cheap, work great.
@rondabynon3275 See if this works….
Use them wet at the sink. Very effective
Thank you!
I sent that link. Hope it helps
Thank you so much! I've added some to my cart.
How amazing is this bowl? The glaze is outstanding.
What kind of shelfs you use where the drippings went off so quick? Cheers Suza
The shelves are called Advancer Kiln Shelves. Most pottery supply stores carry them. The price runs a little high, but they are worth the investment.
@@bynonstudiosartthank you Ronda for that quick response. I’ll try to find them online.
And at least I know now how to write ‘shelves’ correctly.
I love your Chanel. Thanks for sharing
Bynon---- AND that's why I won't use Cosmos glazes. Amaco has some fixin' to do. It just isn't worth it!
I'm just thankful that I was able to save my pieces. Also, please know that I take full blame for not researching the glazes prior to uses them.
