I just did my first raku in the microwave! Some of my glazes have little puckering marks. Any suggestions on what to do differently? I’m guess I maybe put the glaze on too thickly or left them in too long because the sunlight made it harder to see the glow. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

@@kourtneyswholesomelife thank you! I put photos in a raku group and found out the pockmarks were because I had pulled them out of the kiln before the glaze had fully matured. It’s not enough for an orange glow. Gotta check the glaze for a smooth glassy texture first. Not sure if my microwave is one of those that has a way of keeping the temperature in the microwave below a certain level, but it took a whole 15 minutes on full power for them to get to the right smooth mature glaze stage.

a lot of improvements since the early 2000'a when I taught at IGMA school at Castine...I found tiny wheels onine for the class, but there were no batts fitting the wheel, and no tray for the waste clay. Interestinig how things change when potters add their own ideas to a product and make it better! (I still use my regular sized wheel for my own minis, though. Maybe I'm a creature of habit after 5o years!)

@small_ceramics
@small_ceramics 2 ай бұрын
the temp of the body will probably be 1200 as it's stonware, the glaze is raku so 700/800 degrees is where it works best, and yes you are correct, carbon trapping!
