attracting pots
I will not say from whom the post came this morning, but someone
(quite seriously!) suggested offlist that I might investigate to see
if the clay body I was using contained magnetite ore.
Oh why do I love this group!!

attracting pots
Kevin, I have also applied ITC to both my kiln elements and the
kiln
itself. It has made a difference in the eveness of the firing and
has
also increased the efficiency of the firings. I'm using less
electrity.
I highly recommend the product based on personal experience.
On another note I couldn't help but laugh at the "hammer
attracting
pots" signature of Wayne. My pots, especially some of the older ones
that I made with the express intention of being made quickly and
therefore would be nice and cheap, are doing the same thing.
Funny how that 22oz framing hammer just flys across the room all
by
itself some times, completely unaided. LOL.......I really don't know
what the problem is. It seems to have taken on a mind of it's own in
recent months. An old reliable tool suddenly becoming
hyper-critical!?!?! What gives? In fact, I sense that it is about to
take a swing through a coupla more of the lesser beings in the shop.
I
better go out and have a look. Perhaps to cull is good.
Hope this helps
