What a beautiful commissioned work of art! It would be interesting to learn how many continents your work has ended up on over the years. Your videos are always a joy. Thank you Vaughn!

Looks awesome… I’m going to try this. We have a sawmill so lumber is always available. Cedar, walnut, pine and oak.. thanks for sharing

Love your videos. Always makes me nervous when I watch you handling your pottery pieces. You're so brave,I'd be petrified hammering. Leaving them sitting on edge of kiln, yikes. But I still love to watch. Thanks, wish I could see in person.

Thanks, now we move to the gas kiln for the summer, less stressful with no edge to put pots on. I hope to see you one day.

You have a good eye - I would have had to get out the ruler/square. I was surprised that the epoxy is just in the center thank you for the instructions. I like barn wood too and as a teen I helped my dad take barns down that were beyond saying - we salvaged everything from the planks to beams to square nails to wooden spikes and anything else still left in the barn - it was like treasure hunting. That was in the 70's when paneling family/reckrooms was popular.

Wow a sat video. Great with my coffee. Have you considered glazers points instead of nails? There are a couple diffrent styles. I like the ones with the wings so you can push them in with a screwdriver. I've used them on glass. Not for this kind of application but they should work just fine. Thanks again for the great video Allen

I have a Framemaster that shoots metal shafts into the wood, I just prefer nails because the tiles are heavier. Thanks.

you can use a caulking glue which works well on tiles, since epoxy can be rather toxic--your tiles are beautiful

I have tried several glues using a caulking gun including industrial adhesives used in construction, always came loose after just months. My most embarrassing moment came at a craft fair when the sun was shining into my booth, the tiles got too hot to touch in the sunlight and started falling off the backing board. That is when I started using epoxy, I had my motorcycle glued together with it.

Hi there! Is there anyway to frame the tile without gluing it onto the backing? I'm hoping to be able to remove it in case I dont like how it looks years down the line. Thank you in advance!
@Vsmithpots10 ай бұрын
I have removed tiles by placing the backing board on the top of a kiln that is firing to cone 6, wood down. You have to be careful to time it perfectly, I use a thin paint scraper to push under the tile all around as the glue starts to melt. I don't force it but at the right moment the tile will lift. The glue starts to smell like it is melting. Then put the wood panel outside, it is toast, literally. Pour some water on it for safety. I have done this several times, usually when a customer wants the tile but not the frame. Mostly I say no when asked to do this, the customer thinks the frame costs a lot and I will reduce the price if I remove the frame.

@@Vsmithpots unfortunately I don't have access to a kiln. This is more of a DIY decor project. I'm trying to attach pieces of tile into a shadowbox but most options require adhesives. Just wondering if there were other ways around it
