Someone gave me a massive kiln. It stands about 4' high and is about 4' square. It has a kiln-sitter control. The outside is metal with a hinged lid mechanism. I have no idea how to use it. Please direct me to a website or something for instructions. I thought about selling it and buying a...

I have been miss-attributing this idea to coming from one of the Steve's. In doing an archive search I found this. Sorry about that. It was a Steve (not a regular I think) who generated the thread that led to the response. A really great idea - that is easy to use in different ways (I use a...

I have some nice pottery books I want to sell on eBay, and wonder if I can post a notice here? Marco

Hi all, does anybody have the recipe for Emannuel Cooper's chrome/tin pink, stoneware glaze, I had it several years ago but can't find it amongst my papers. It's an unusual glaze, pink where thick and blue in thinner areas; I believe he called it "Midnight fun". Help please! Cheers, Andy

Would anybody have any info on Golden Bridge Pottery, Pondicherry. I would like to take up a course with them.

I spent half the day searching local stores, the other half searching google for some of those window candles with electric lights that are made out of porcelain or ceramic. I would think that someone makes them, but all I can find is cheap plastic junk. Anyone seen some nice ones for sale?

I'm building a house for my wood fired kiln (Steve Mills helped me greatly with the kiln) and posted some pics of it's early stages on my site. More to come later. http://www.freakyacres.com/?p=kilnhouse.php

I need a source for unglazed porcelain bisque ware which I can decorate and fire to cone 5 (not 05). What I most want is dinner plates, salad plates and soup/desert bowls. All I seem to find is pre-glazed pieces for china painting and that is NOT what I want to do. Any help would be...

I was thinking about starting to make my own Christmas town houses. So far my idea is to press some tiles in the shape of walls and roofs and bonding them together. This is (IMO) better than attempting to make a multipart mold and slip casting it. But since I don't know the pro's and con's of...

I have a project in mind and want to know if its feasable to use a coil method but to weave it like a basket. I have over a bushell of pecans this year and thought they would make nice gifts. I wanted to make small baskets aproximately the diameter of a soup bowl but twice as high. My concern is...

I apologize if this is a repeat of a previous conversation but I have been off the newsgroup for a while. Have any of you used decals printed on a home printer on your work? What have been your experiences? Have you fired these decals? I am looking to use some on some artistic pieces - so they...
