Thank you so much!!😊

Thank you so much!! Good to know that it's a dish mat😅

@@caldervanandel love it! I just started my RU-vid channel a year ago, it would mean so much if you checked it out!

That's awesome! I hope I'll get to see them one day! Thank you!😊

Thank you so much!!😊

I'm glad you liked the video! Oh that makes sense :))

Hi Nancy! Thank you for your kind comment! I explain how I throw my mugs in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rvjlOIwe_zc.htmlsi=JzylEdAQiL2HavkO It's part of a series in which I make a high tea set, maybe you'd like to watch the whole series :))

Thank you so much! I'm glad you could understand my english! Hugs back to you from The Netherlands :))

Hi! Thank you for your comment! The oatmeal is a great idea, I hope it works out!😊

Thank you! I have tried different holds, but I'm actually quite happy with how things turn out without a hold at the moment. But it's definitely an interesting topic to learn more about!

Dankjewel!

Thank you so much!!😊

Thank you! Have fun!

Thank you so much!!🙌🏻

Thank you! When you only use one glaze it's best to just use 3 coats, but when you do a glaze combination like this it's possible to use more coats. This does indeed make the chance of the glaze running bigger. So with a combination like this I would not glaze all of the coats all the way to the bottom. And it also depends on the glaze, with a combination like this it's important to use a glaze that doesn't run as a base, in this case Obsidian. I have tried multiple combinations, and sometimes the glaze gets very runny, and runs of the piece, onto the kiln shelf. Unfortunately the only way to find out if a glaze runs is to test it. If you want to prevent the glaze from running you could also fire at a bit of a lower temperature. When I fire at 1200°C some glazes don't run at all, even though they do at 1220°C I hope this helps!

Thank you! It will turn out different with low fire glazes, but I think you can use the same layering technique with any glazes.

I'll take a look at it!😁

@@caldervanandel Mayco has big fan brushes also. It holds lots of glaze. 🤗

Oh by the way ,Dutch speak excellent English.💎💎

Thank you! I try my best😅

Thank you!🙏😊

No I don't, the glazes are so glossy themselves😊

Hi, Thank you for watching! All four of the glazes I use in the video are food safe😊

How fast the kiln reaches the temperature does have an impact on the glazes. When the kiln takes longer the colors become a bit darker, in my experience. If your kiln takes long you could also fire at 1200 degrees :)

Thank you! Enamel is the same as normal glazes, like the ones I use for the northern light glazing. You can use one collor or layer them like in this video. Engobe works the same as underglaze, you can use it to paint something and do sgraffito. To make the engobe food safe you have to apply clear glaze (enamel) on top of it. I hope this helps😊

Thank you! I personally don't like using wax, because I'm afraid it will get on the sides of the mug and ruin it. But if you'd prefer to use wax instead of cleaning the bottom, that is just fine😊

Thank you so much! No, I don't test it, but I only mix the glazes on the outside of the mugs and I use one glaze on the inside, so that I'm sure it's food safe. But I think that most amaco glazes are safe to be used together, but there are indeed different ways to test if it is food safe, but I unfortunately don't know much about that.

Haha do I pronounce it weird?🙈

@@caldervanandel no, not at all !!! you just say it slightly different because of your accent - in the UK we say it like m-uh-g

I love your accent, don’t change it for the world 🤎

Hahah Thank you so much!!

Oh just that I'm not sponsored, so I'm not getting paid to talk about the glazes :)

Thank you! I use 254 from www.potterypassion.com/products

I'm sorry about the sound, I unfortunately got a copyright claim on the background music years after posting this video. I did make a new instruction video about the same glaze combination :)

@@caldervanandel Thanks for your prompt reply. I was able to follow your instruction just by watching the video. I didn’t know if you were aware of the loss of the sound so I just wanted to let you know.

That's the Obsidian😊

@@caldervanandel Thank you for replying

Hi! I think you indeed fired too high. I experience the best outcome at 1220 degrees. And you might need to apply the colors thicker as well, if it stays black😊

Hi Thanks! I'l try😊👍

I fire at 1220 degrees Celsius😊

@@caldervanandel thank you!

Hi! I think you can, but I can't assure you it will look the same😅

Thank you! I don't use wax, the only thing I do is clean the bottom😊

@@caldervanandel Thank you for ur response back! Appreciate greatly!! Again, love your work!!!! :)

Thank you!!

I'm sorry but I don't know where you could get them. I got them in The Netherlands😅

I don't do a hold, I let the oven cool down immediately after reaching 1220 degrees.

Thank you Calder... that's amazing...😊

Yes, they are already bisque fired😊

I didn't use transparent glaze, the first color I used was black😊

Thank you so much! I try my best😅

No, I don't add anything else. Unfortunately this is stoneware glaze, so you have to fire it at a higher temperature😕

@@caldervanandel excellent. Thank you. Your work is beautiful. I think that using normal glazes I can get something similar. Will try. Big hug from Buenos Aires!!

Thank you so much!! Have fun!!

No, I have never tried that, but I think it would work the same😊

Normal glaze

Dat heb ik wel eens geprobeerd, maar bij mij liep toen de glazuur over de triangle. Hierdoor was het erg moeilijk om deze er af te krijgen, en bleven er vervolgens scherpe punten over😅 Wel is het mogelijk om een diepere voet te maken en dan alleen de ring waar de beker op staat niet te glazuren.

I fire to 600 degrees Celsius in 5 hours, and then as fast as possible to 1220 degrees Celsius😊

@@caldervanandel awesome, that makes sense, You put a hold at all?

No☺

@@caldervanandel btw just used your tip w/ cleaning off the bottoms. Thumbs up. lAlso the piece looks amazing!

Thank you! I'm glad to hear it works!

I unfortunately got a copyright claim for the music I used, so the sound was removed, but I made a new and improved video, the link is in the description!

I'm Dutch😊

@@caldervanandelReally?hehe i hear french accent...

Interesting, my French is not good enough to give me an accent😂
