Thank you to all who responded to my two posts. I have posted some of my
recent fired work on cgreenman.zaadz.com I hope that link works. I have
cleaned the work with a stone, grinder and then finish with emory cloth. I
do not like to clean to much but to remove all that might distract. On the
shino problem I think that it most likely that I am reducing to early so
next time I fire I am going to try and restrain myself. Many thanks for
those that responded.

could it get any better?

I find that if, I start a medium reduction when orton cone 012 has its tip
touching and maintain this medium reduction through cone 08 (tip touching
or a little after) then, my shino glazes come out great. Some are
formulated to pin hole due to the high alumina content and some are
smooth. I can fire in a neutral to oxidizing environment to make quick
temperature gains as long as I start a medium progressing to heavy
reduction at orton cones 6->9. I can then lower the reduction to medium or
medium-light at cones 10->12.

Quote from the begining of the catalog:
""In a time of political and economic uncertainty,
with a leader struggling to impose
adherence to his vision of order and progress,
discerning artists emerge to point a way out
of the chaos toward a new realm where creativity
fuses the spirits of man and nature.""
