broken bisque repair

updated sat 23 feb 02

 

Michael A. on fri 22 feb 02


Why? Because I bought this piece and cannot make another! It got broken
during shipping.

I have never even fired a ceramic kiln yet. It is a real nice bull with a
broken leg and it is for

my own use, not for resale. I don't have the mold, I am a beginner, and I
do buy bisque every

now and then, so some breaks during shipping. It would be nice if I can
learn to fix the stuff

I buy. Thanks to all who have been kind enough to tell me how to fix them.

Michael
