--- Part 2 ---
I love to
experiment and it is help me a lot in my art. With my experiment I get a lot of
info about clay, glazes and a lot of more.
My last
experiment is about furnace. Gas furnace, furnace with using wood and sure
electric ones. My all clay item burned out in electric furnace, but I am very
interested about other type of furnaces. So I decade to made one. Usually first
experiment is for get info about what can go out of plan.
I decide to
made gas work furnace. My all experiment I will do in my new studio area. I
don’t build a new studio building yet (because just now don’t have so much
money) so there is a lot of place do experiments.
1. I take 1 bag 50kg brown clay. In
real it is not so good for sculpting so I decide to use it.
2. I take a stones from my area
3. Dry grass
4. Coarse chalk and some part of grog
Here is
what I make. It is first part; it most has a head part too.
I don’t
wait till head part made and test it with wood burn. Like an experimental item
I take a clay bowl and start to burn. Here are some photos
in process
her what I get after some hour :)
my conclusions:
1. With this construction and with wood
burn, there is no possible to get hi temperature, I don’t take thermometer, but
with my think I get 250-300 Celsius no hi from 450-500 Celsius
I think
with gas burn I get more temperature, so if it is interested I will update info
after test with gas.
