Trine Bentsen on Instagram: "••• WARNING ⚠️👇🏻‼️ If you want to glaze very close to the bottom like this then you need to use a non drippy ❌ 💧❌ glaze otherwise your glaze will run and get fused with your kiln shelves 😱 ℹ️ Service info ℹ️ The wax I’m using is the decorations wax product no.: 2868 from @ceramadk ⚠️ warning ⚠️ The brush 🖌️ you use for waxing can never be used for glazing afterwards‼️ ♥️Tip♥️ If you dip your brush 🖌️ in dishwashing soap 🧼 before dipping it in the wax, then it is way easier to clean the brush afterwards and your brush can then be used for waxing time and time again 😜 ℹ️ BONUS info ℹ️ Don’t worry about the black line from your pencil ✏️ - it burns away during firing 🔥 FOLLOW 👉🏻 @keo.ceramics for more tips like this one ☺️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥
The Pot Luck Club on Instagram: "Lots of pot bottoms to trim this evening - some stoneware and some delicious porcelain - more on that later 😻 Another quick video of my much criticised and celebrated centering method - remember this is just how I do it, not necessarily the perfect way! One day I will learn to tap centre, that day is not today... Hopefully where I move the pot to shows the correction needed to move the pot towards the centre a bit more every time. Trial and error, my favourite scientific method 🧪🔬🔭 #trimmingpots #potterytips #centeringpractice #fastforward #bottomsup #upsidedown #turningpottery #centering"
