Yeah....just keep making different stuff....your adventurous spirit and curiosity is what keeps us watching....I'm so into all your gas firing...more reactions, more surprises! Keep going
I love the 1 layer of carbon trapping celadon in the gas kiln - the darker clay you can see under the semi-transparent glaze layer is gorgeous, each piece is unique. The 2 layers are nice too - more predictable outcome perhaps. And the Desert Sunset combo in the electric kiln is amazing - stunning! So some from each!
I like yhe gas the glaze seems to be more full and iridescent metallic color on your one cup but im fond of woodfired pottery . I like eletric as well too. Both are keepers life is to short to not do all shapes anything you like to do. Thanks for sharing with us all
Gas looks more roasted and rugged. I use to paint wax on the carbon trap shino on my pots where I wanted more carbon trap and on a porcelain clay body.. We took the kiln to 11/12. For production work I really like cone 5/6. Colors are popular with our patrons. Gas kilns are more fun to fire.
Really like the electric kiln pots. Glazes are so much more glossy and colorful. I have done both wood and gas, and never do they look as well as electric. But I am sure that is just the look I like. Try and fire the gas to cone 6-8, you might like it. Thanks for the video.
I would suggest working toward getting the ware much closer in the gas kiln. Slows the firing both on the way up and down. Also a packed kiln tends to fire more evenly.
I had to rewatch several times. It went by so fast. I like the reds in the gas better. They seem richer more depth of color. Wonder when you refire in electric if it changes the color of the clay back to oxidation look Maybe you’ve done the video where you compare same glaze in both kilns with side by side photos for comparison. Always inspiring
can you please show how you refire an item? You had mentioned that for a few items, I never knew you could refire an item once it's been glazed fired. TY!
Sometimes I'm a little bit Country, other time I'm a little bit Rock & Roll. Electric (Country) is great for convenience and vivid colors, but it limits what you can do with glaze/clay combos. Gas (Rock & Roll) opens up a wide range of possibilities. I wish I had access to a gas kiln so I could get more toasty results with darker clay bodies and with copper glazes etc. in a reduction atmosphere. I think you illustrate the differences very clearly in this vid.
The cranberry, yellow salt and carbon trap céladon are very nice. But I think the Mayco glazes don't work that well in the gas firing. I prefer them in the electric. So, I like both firings but it depends on the glaze.
I’ve been searching all over for the travel mug silicone tops. Can you share your source ? I’m looking for white. I think both gas and electric have their place. Good glazes on both. We built our own propane kiln.
I love reduction firing but given how there are now so many clay bodies and glazes that mimic reduction for anyone who wants the effect and how electric has a much lower carbon footprint, I have to lean toward electric.
Re: "Find your voice"... Some of us just speak all kinds of art-y languages. I like variety. You obviously like variety, too. 😂 I like electric outcomes better in general.
Please, help!! I recently bought an olympic gas kiln and haven't been able to fire it properlly 😭 I feel so frustrated bc using a gas kiln has been my dream for ages 😭 I can't get over 1000°C. I really need some lecturing. Any advice? Suggestions? Thanx
"Kind of a black and white. Kinda... Damnation" WHOW WHOW WHOA JTP gone metal? Cup of damnat- oh wait, *dalmatian*! Ah, yes, well, that makes more sense.
Oh yeah! A little Florian Gatsby vibe never hurt anybody!😍
Love that glaze.

The Gas kiln load was stunning! Always a surprise:)

Both. Each has their own unique dynamics, like different genres in music.
Electric only because of sola panels
Yeah. Like in surfing... long board or shortboard. Each treats the wave differently. And each has its own flow.
Electric FTW. Those Florian joints are very nice though!
Those pourovers are gorgeous 😍
Both are great and have different qualities about them, we fire in both also
Nice❤ thanks for sharing!
Very cool mugs and really gorgeous work overall.
10:05 The red color is from oxidation. Likely small pockets that did not fully get into reduction.
I like them both

Gas kiln results were amazing!

Does the crackling with the carbon trapping compromise food safety?
Would adding a bit of clay stop the runs?

Who makes the cranberry ,red, glaze? Very nice

Did I hear you correctly? Carbon Trapping? Is this a Mayco or Amaco or something else glaze? Thank you!
I like them both, but lean a little more towards gas😄
Why not do another “March Madness Glaze Tournament”?
Your carbon trapped celadon looks like crazed copper glaze to me so it may have copper in it which will flash redder at high heat
The gas kiln for sure.
Do you use the same glazes for both kilns?
Beutifull😮
I like the gas firing more.
what brand is the desert sunset?
It"s a mayco glaze combo. Search his videos for his favorite glaze combos and it's in that video.
Gas and soda

I like both... electric is kinda flat, gas seems deeper value... maybe. 😊

I like the gas better -- the color can be richer, and the clay gives a better color.

Gas kiln!
Electric. The other one look burnd. I like the clay color thogh
lol my voice goes…..SQUIRREL!
