Glazing: Part II

    I already took a picture of my pot.
    On my pinch pot, I used Oasis and Transparent. I applied the Oasis by dipping my pot into the bucket after making sure it was stirred and the bottom of my pot was brushed with the glaze-resistant. I held it under for two seconds, and then took it out. I had to apply the Transparent by brush and applied an even coat.
    The glaze ran a little down the pot and seemed to separate a little. This was because the kiln was stuck at a temperature for six hours. Although, I would not be surprised if I was at fault too. Other than that, the glaze and firing went fine. Next time, I will use a different kiln and maybe chose different glazes as well.
