Increase/decrease appropriate gas pressure will affect the appearance of the flame at the nozzle and make a good firing atmosphere. Pottery Clay has simple rules for adjusting the flame at the nozzle to teach you.
The important step in making ceramic workpiece that has been discussed previously is raw firing. However, many people still wonder about various reaction steps in the raw firing. What the reaction will be like while firing? We have a simple explanation about the process of change to let you know.
Both the circuit breaker and the electric meter are devices that must always be with the kiln because if there is no breaker, potters would probably use the kiln with worry about their safety. If the meter is missing, it will be hard for potters when measuring power while working.
As you already know, an important step in ceramic sculpture is to bring the piece into the kiln. In addition to having to know how to choose a kiln to match the type of work and preference, you must also know the optimum temperature for ceramic operation, and of course, an important aid such as a thermometer is also a must.
Pottery Clay introduces potters to 2 characteristics of the equipment that potters can't live without. It is called a must-have item for producing workpieces. Let's look at the characteristics of the equipment used as a molding tool.
Frit is the raw material used to prepare low temperature coating. It is made from toxic or soluble raw materials. It is fused with silica which is glass. The raw material is melted into glass with the property of insoluble therefore not absorbed through the skin. Both yield more stable results. The frit is finely ground to form a ready-made powder coating before being used as a low-temperature coating which is usually prepared from raw materials, lead and borax or from a combination of both.
The process of firing ceramic workpieces is one of the key ceramic manufacturing process. Originally, we used wood and oil as fuel because it is plenty and cheap but when the price of such fuel moved higher, today's ceramic kilns are increasingly turning to gas and natural gas fuels.
Do you know about the “Slab Roller”? It's a clay machine that takes a short time to get the clay out quickly and efficiently. It can be used to create patterns by rolling clay together with a patterned stamp.
After we knew "a human-powered pottery wheel", now let get to know "an electric-powered pottery wheel" and understand the benefits and differences from a human-powered one.
It is not enough to have just kaolin and black clay as the heart of ceramic work. You must also have reliable equipment such as surface decorating tools which is like a right hand for potter to work on ceramic as he pleases.

No matter how skilled you are in pottery or how good you are at setting the temperature during firing the workpieces. Our pottery friends especial...

In addition to rolling the clay into sheets by a Slab Roller, potters also have a helper when they want to compress clay into sticks with a Clay Gun.
