Synopsis:

This book discusses how to make your own glazes, experimenting with line blends and using local materials to create original recipes. The author describes how to raw glaze and once-fire your pots, a technique which saves both time and money and often develops a fresh and vivid approach to the craft.  The book also contains detailed plans for building a variety of kilns, including an exciting ’power kiln’, make from super-efficient materials, ceramic fibre and SAYVIT  bricks, and fired by propane gas. There are also plans for three different wheels, and other tools.
