burn treatment
When I was taking my first lessons from an artist a few years ago, she recommended a particular kind of burn ointment that glassworkers favored because it was good at preventing scarring. It was not something available off the shelf from Walgreen's or like that. I remember she said you could get it ...

Re: Another new kiln, yay!
Possibly, possibly not, but it's been running nearly 'round the clock since I got it. I've been saving up stuff for firing for a long time.AndyT wrote:You'll be surprised at how much energy the kiln doesn't use.

Re: Stupid question: kiln wash
Wow, that must be a very different kind of paper than what I've always seen and used: what I use just disintegrates in the course of a single firing - nothing left afterwards but a powdery residue. No way could it ever be reused.

Stupid question: kiln wash
So, I use shelf paper under my pieces. Do I need to renew the kiln wash on the shelf before every firing?

Another new kiln, yay!
After being stuck in Customs for weeks, my Skutt Firebox 14 arrived, was hauled up 3 flights of stairs, and installed in my bathroom with the scariest-looking plug EVER.
My electric bill this month will be about a zillion shekels.

Skutt Hotstart Pro versus Paragon Fusion 6
I'm ready to buy my first kiln, and my choices have come down to a Skutt Hotstart Pro versus a Paragon Fusion 6. I'll pay a little bit more for the Skutt but they have an Israeli distributor so I won't have to mess around with shipping, customs or delivery like I will if I go for the Paragon. Call i...
