Hey y'all. Did a raku firing today and used some of the Kingin
gold/silver that I inherited. Someone here told me to throw this glaze
as far as I can; however, I must have been holding my mouth right because
I got GREAT results with this glaze inside a large pinched and burnished
bowl. It looks like a beaten copper kettle.
I am somewhat confused as to when the reduction takes place in raku. Is
it caused by the fire when you put the pot in sawdust/leaves/etc.? Or is
it caused by putting a can over it? I'm trying to figure out how to get
better reduction.
TIA from the now frigid Piedmont...
