Hay Crew,

I haven't been in the kiln much because I'm busy making more pots to fill =
her and in passing a few times I noticed the tub of kiln wash looked a litt=
le frothy but thought nothing of it until I took a good look...

Thanks for that Gary. For some reason I didn't want to follow that link - =
I
can just imagine with that heading. Even with all the glaze gurus here a
solution to your kiln wash problem might be a cat.

I have a tree frog living in my clay sink area ;-) I have to be careful whe=
n
I do clean up or prep work. I noticed that once I bother it's terrirtory it
leaps out and "goes for a walk for a while" but its always there the next
day.

I have two cats but now I have cat hat everywhere in the studio. They
are good companions.
The dogs are too hyper to watch me glaze.
