"Copper Red Glazes" book by Bob Masta
Just got some pottery books from Edward R. Hamilton (www.hamiltonbook.com), including "Copper Red Glazes" by Robert Tichane for only US$4.95.

Is it microwavable? by Red Deer
Hi Everyone, Often I use a speckled clay (Standard 112) which I fire to cone 6. Recently another potter said it was not microwavable due to the manganese content which makes the speckles. I was wondering if anyone else knows this to be true. Thank you for your help, Sandi

Paragon B88B by james
I just bought a Paragon B88B Kiln. I was hoping to use it to fire Pottery, but based on the limited information I have found on the 'net, it seems to be more suited to "greenware", whatever that is. Can someone tell me what I can expect to use this Kiln for? Thanks James

Disposing of Glazes by anna
I mix my own glazes from dry ingredients, and therefore often have small test batches that just don't work out. My question is what is the proper way to dispose of these glazes? My first instinct is to let them dry out and just toss them in the garbage, but there has got to be a better...

craft or fine art or what? by Susie
I don't know if I'm going to open up a hornets' nest - whether it be craftily or in a fine art style. Please, where does the line - if indeed there is one - come between the two? This afternoon I was told that my work drops firmly into the craft category, yet in the past it's been accepted...

Blue ceramics by Jake Loddington
No: not cobalt. Some while ago, I saw a photograph of a porcelain vase with a blue shadowgram image. I assumed that this was a cyanotype image (the father of the engineers' blueprint), and was therefore unfired. I read up about this antique photographic process, which pre-dated even...

donut method by Mandy Farrier Mejia
I have been trying to use the donut method for attaching a bat for making plates, but my bats always slide very easily when I start centering, no matter how hard I push the bat onto the donuts. Does anyone have any tips for getting them to stay in place? Thanks, Mandy
