We’ve already published chapter one: What is Clay, chapter two: Clay Properties and Drying and Chapter three: Bisque Firing. This is chapter four: Tips for Successful Glazing. This topic will be presented in three parts.
Tips for Successful Glazing is presented in seven topics:
1. Glaze Compositions
2. Glaze Preparation and Mixing
3. Handling Prepared Glazes (Ready For Use)
4. Surface Preparation of the Work to be Glazed
5. Methods of Glaze Application
6. Clean Up and Finishing of the Glazed Work
7. Glaze Firing
In this video you will learn the about glaze compositions, preparations and mixing. Phil presents tips on glaze testing and getting to know your glazes as well as characteristics of different glazes. This is followed by tips and techniques for preparing for and mixing glazes that will add to your success.
Show notes can be found at www.hfclay.com...
The next topic in the Understanding Pottery series will be Tips for Successful Glazing, Part 2.

This is the best educative resource I have ever encountered. I listen to it while I work in my studio to re-educate myself in the vagaries and intricacies of ceramics. I am dismayed to read that Phil has passed. What a loss!! I will listen and watch his teachings to the last episode and then go back to lesson 1 and repeat. I can't tell you how grateful I am so thank you all involved.

@WashingtonStreetStudios
@WashingtonStreetStudios 3 года назад
Hi Sybil, Thanks for your email. It's possible to glaze a vessel with rings, but it's tricky, and the difficulty depends upon the profile of the body, how large the rings are and whether they hang free from the body or tend to lie against it, and how far above the base the rings are. Basically, the rings and the rest of the body have to be kept separated during the whole firing. The easiest solution is to create a small contact area (between the rings and the supporting part) where there is no glaze by applying wax before the glaze. If a ring was on the handle of a small form such as a mug, then it might be possible to support the ring out to the side of the handle (so that it doesn't contact any part of the mug) on the top of an extra kiln post; the "down" side of the ring that rests on the kiln post would need to be waxed and without glaze or supported in a stilt.

Hello,i am interest about Barium carbonat.(BaCO3) is it dangerous if i use in clear glaze for everyday pottery? Thank you for your attention.
@WashingtonStreetStudios
@WashingtonStreetStudios 2 года назад
I am not qualified to answer your question, you can search for the material safety data sheet for barium carbonate for that answer. We don’t have it in our studio because it is toxic in powder form.
@TheMarnaiz
@TheMarnaiz 4 года назад
I much prefer the look of a matt glaze but are they food-safe if fired to stoneware temperatures?
@WashingtonStreetStudios
@WashingtonStreetStudios 4 года назад
MaZ, I'm sure there are and I will send this question off to Phil for a response.
@WashingtonStreetStudios
@WashingtonStreetStudios 4 года назад
The answer to your question is...it depends. The first requirement for a cone 6 glaze to be food-safe would be that it is fired to maturity at cone 6. If the matt glaze is matt because of the formation of microcrystals (not easily visible with the naked eye) during cooling, then the glaze is likely to be food-safe if the base glaze does not contain any potentially harmful ingredients such as barium carbonate. If the glaze is matt because of undissolved ingredients (due to excess amounts or underfiring), then the glaze may not be food-safe. Whether a glaze is food safe depends upon what all the ingredients are and how the glaze is fired. A base glaze may be food-safe by itself, but the safety still depends upon what the additives, such as the colorants, are. So, the ingredients plus the firing determine the safety. Phil

Harry, that's a good question and I've forwarded it to Phil for an answer. I'm looking forward to reading the response!
@WashingtonStreetStudios
@WashingtonStreetStudios 3 года назад
Hi Harry, Thanks for your question! Altitude, and the associated lower air pressure, shouldn't really have any significant effect on the way that glazes melt, but I guess it's possible that the slightly lower oxygen level could effect the color development of certain electric-fired glazes that depend upon oxygen, such as low temperature and cone 6 red glazes. Localized reduction in an electric kiln (from the burn-off of organic ingredients) could be slightly increased. It can have a direct effect on the way that fuel-fired kilns, such as gas kilns, operate because of the lower air pressure and oxygen supply. Phil

Me and my wife open a public pottery studio in Albuquerque last year and have been firing to Cone 6 with a short 10 or 15 minute hold on the end. Most things have fired fine except chocolate clay was some times getting blisters. We recently reduced the firings to cone 5 with a 15 minute hold on the end and no more blisters. Also the Coyote peacock glaze has better color results. I am wondering if a hold on the end of the biscuit fire would help to get more or the organic out of the chocolate clay.

@WashingtonStreetStudios 3 года назад
@@harrykuykendall5296 What's the name of your studio and do you have a website? Adding 10-15 minutes on the end of a firing is close to adding another cone. We fire to cone 5 with a 20 minute hold and our pyrometric cones tell us we hit cone 6 throughout the kiln. We have the same blistering with standard 266 at cone 6, but the blistering is diminished at cone 5 with a hold. Since cone 5 with a hold is actually a lower temperature at a longer time to achieve the heat work the cone requires our working theory is something about the dark clays doesn't like the higher temperatures reached by the controllers at cone 6. It is just a working theory and it seems you are seeing the same phenomena. It's possible the lower temperatures is also preserving some of the colors in the glaze as well. Isn't it great to work with something where the same process can achieve different results for seemingly no reason at all!
