What have you been taught as a general rule that I can test and put some limits to? Have you been taught to wipe your pots before glazing? Does plaster of Paris explode in the kiln? Does a wheel have to be level to throw well. Give this engineer your question and ideas to prove and quantify.
As someone who is trying to build their own gas kiln, this is amazing for knowing what level of temperature control I need to be aiming for and when thats achieved what firing rates to do for my pottery which is quite thick. Thank you!!!
Thank you David & Wade, very informative as usual. I will be sharing this over here. Yep they will need to do their own research with the clay they use. Cheers
Wade put a lot of effort and time helping me get the script to flow nicely while being short and concise. He even got me to look happy on camera while trying to remember my lines. What should I test next? Did the download link work.
I suspected it would be harder/slower for gases to get out of a very fine clay. That's why I used the finest clay I use regularly. It would be interesting to test grogged clay and porcelain against the one I used here.
@@Pottery_with_an_Engineer it would be cool to see a standardized size with different types of clay, from fine porcelain to something heavily grogged and compare on various factors

Yes I have shared it & the recipients have commented to me they were impressed & can use it to demonstrate to pupils.
Hope all is well for you David.
As always lots of good info, thank you sir
Thank you. High praise.
Awesome 👌
Thanks
Does the clay body factor into this much, e.g. would porosity be a variable?
