Notes on Glazing (Beginning Throwing Week 3)

Hi folks,

No videos this week, but below is a PDF document with some notes on glazing your pots. Remember to wax the bottom!:
Notes on glazing


During 2-hour practice this week:
  • Finish leatherhard bowls from last week & put on shelf to dry
  • Finish bone-dry bowls & put on "ready to bisque" cart
  • Glaze any bisque pots & put in kiln room for glaze firing
  • If you have time, practice making bowls on the wheel (throw 8 1-pound pieces of clay, keep 2)

Next class, we'll look at making mugs on the potters wheel.

Cheers,
Jay
