Glazing a long forgotten Pier Post Bob mug - Tiki Technical Tuesday 

So glad you didn't give up after the first attempt didn't turn out as you had hoped. The final product was beautiful! Excited to see the lamp episode and yes, please do a breakdown of how you do your photo set up!

I'm going to be 20 minutes late to work because this dropped right as I was leaving the house, and no way I'm not watching this right now!

I teach at a science center, and we did a unit on the science of ceramics. The campers loved slip casting! Thank you so much for such great, in depth videos.

What an awesome TikiTechnicalTuesday! I’m so glad you went back with the green again it looks awesome!

I can’t believe I didn’t notice this on Tuesday! Always a joy to watch

As a Sailor, and stuck doing the 'hurry up and wait' thing. I have stared at a LOT of pier posts, ferry bollards, just random wood bobbing in the water... Pier Post Bob looks GREAT! If you ever go down this path again? Sponge on some dabs of dark green and yellow. Every time I've seen a post mossy with algae and seaweed, its light green (new, young), dark green (adulthood), yellow (dying and sun bleaching) and even grey (dead sun burnt). I have no idea what the species are but a few have what can only be called 'a bloom'.

Team Algae Bob FOREVER! A great look into the rollercoaster of creative expectations. Thanks for sharing!

One of my favorite episodes! Underglaze on top of glaze!...I have had it flake off if applied just a little too heavy! I am doing that Kiln dance today and currently at 463 degrees. Love the result of this mug! Pier Post Bob is by far my favorite of your VanTiki mugs!!!

I found your channel after the last Viva Las Vegas. I'm a Rockabilly guy who is learning about Tiki. I've been watching a lot of DIY Tiki videos because I find making things myself a lot more satisfying than a trip to the store. Your masterclasses have been extremely interesting. Way above my skill level but a fun watch.

All of the above please! I love it all! Bob turned out looking fantastic! Lisa

I enjoy hearing about your creative process. And of course, the green at the bottom was the right choice. Looking forward to more TTT content!

That turned out so awesome! And I’d LOVE to see a video on your setup

Another great video. Bob came out beautifully. We would like to see your photo setup. Now I want to see the Vantiki light fixture!!!

I would love to know more about your photobooth set up, the lighting is fab! So happy that you added the green at the end for the second firing, that ombre effect is stunning and really suits Pier Post Bob! I loved the original, but this one takes my heart.

I would love to see your photo process

Great glaze adventure!! Also, any photo tips would be greatly appreciated.

Great mug. Have it

I think I've said it before, but I'll say it again: I absolutely love and appreciate your videos, every single one of them has me completely engrossed. I always keep a season of Great British Bake Off unwatched incase I hit a period of unshakable depression and I'm thinking I should do the same with your videos except for periods of missing inspiration. I'd love sometime to hear more about your cone 6 vs cone 10 thoughts. I'm a hobbyist with a very modest home studio and sometimes have a bit of FOMO when I think about/read about/youtube about potters firing to cone 10 in gas kilns or whatever (to be honest I'm more into the process of pottery e.g. making my own glazes and such vs actually making anything beautiful!). I'm sure your glazes, clay bodies, etc, are all intended for cone 6 and have low absorption rates where important, etc, but still wonder if this is something you've done any experimentation with or have any feelings on. I think one of the big things I wonder about is how you've found the robustness of your final work in a commercial setting, i.e. how easy does stuff break! Thanks again for such amazing videos.

Loved Pier Bob! I too know the anticipation waiting on the kiln to hurry up and cool down dance 😝. What spray gun did you use in this episode?

Please do a video on your photo set up!

With latex, if you don't want to ruin your brushes; wet them and put dishwashing liquid on it before the latex. This is what I do when I use it, I'm not sure if it works for every latex though but, maybe worth a shot?

wow you sold it for 1800!

First. 🎉🎉

are you a drinker too? do you have a favorite tiki cocktail that would go into this mug!

Have you used plasticine to cover organic items?

Ffs chill on the rodent energy. Love your content but not the energy- chill,
