On the bottom, or any surface that will touch the kiln shelf. The glaze basically turns to glass and it will harden itself (stick to) anything it touches.

How do you make Mosaics?

You can buy mosaic tiles in craft stores made out of glass or polymer clay. I make my own with polymer clay. The clay comes in several colors. You can roll it out and cut into squares or any shape you need. I also use the marbles that are flat on one side, near florals in department stores, broken shower doors, broken floor tiles, sea shells, etc..Lay out your design dry to get it like you want it, then stick on wood, wood furniture,in wet cement, anything you can think of that will adhere to your tiles and what you want to put it on. After dry, grout it, seal it with a product called Duron Plastic Kote layered til covered good and even, or polyurethane it to seal it. In cement projects, just seal it with the cement sealer at the time you seal the cement. It's fun because you can use just about anything. I have even broken up old ceramic toilets and glass bowls and plates.

Should archaeologists take artefacts from Egyptian tombs?

This is something of a moral dilemma. On one side of the argument there is much to be learned from the artefacts from ancient people. In addition to which much of the treasure found was accumulated by uncivilised acts and through conquest and slavery. So could be seen as returning these items to the public. On the other side it could be classed as grave robbing. If we are to put a time limit on what may or may not be taken who then decides that time limit and what should it be? 100 years. 1000. 3000. It is difficult to reconcile all points but many believe the knowledge gained outweighs the possible desecration of a grave.

When do you put glaze on polymer clay?

You should put glaze on polymer clay after baking and cooling it completely. The glaze adds a shiny or matte finish to your polymer clay creations and helps protect them from wear and tear. Apply the glaze using a soft brush or sponge in thin, even coats for best results.


Can more than one type of glaze be used on each clay pot?

Yes, as long as the glazes are meant to be fired to the same cone. Putting a cone 6 and a cone 10 glaze on the same pot would not be a good idea. But putting two, three, four, etc. glazes of the same cone on one pot is perfectly fine. Just understand that glazes may be stable by themselves, but when another glaze is added on top that may create instabilities such as crazing or running. The biggest problem I have had with combining glazes on one pot is running. Just make sure to put the pot on stilts or on a waste slab so you don't have to grind glaze off the kiln shelf.

How do you cool water using clay?

To cool water using clay, you can place a clay pot with water inside a larger clay pot. Wet the outer pot with water and place in a well-ventilated area. As the water in the outer pot evaporates, it will draw heat from the inner pot, thus cooling the water inside. This method utilizes the principle of evaporative cooling to lower the temperature of the water.

Why is the bottom of the pottery not glazed?

Glaze is made of powdered silica and alumina and chemicals to make it melt at the right temperature. It is usally mixed with water to apply it to the pot. When it is heated to the right tempurature the glaze turns to liquid glass. If it is on the bottom of the pot then when it cools it will be permanently stuck to the kiln shelf it is sitting on. Some pots were fired on their rims insteand and the rims were covered with metal. Other pots are fired on stilts that touch the bottom of the pot in three points. In that case the bottom can be glazed and the stilt broken off. Some wood fired pots and salt glazed pots are put on wadding (small balls of high alumina clay) to keep them from sticking. Sometimes they still have to be ground clean of glaze. Other glazes like crystalline ones always run and must be put on high stilts and always ground clean in order to sit flat.

Can clay melt by heat I am asking this because I am wondering, if I get a red hot wire and push it on clay, can I put designs on the clay pot without wetting it again?

Clay can be melted by heat, but the process of doing so typically requires temperatures that are much higher than what can be achieved with a red hot wire. Additionally, the process of melting clay can cause it to lose structural integrity and become unusable for pottery. Therefore, it is unlikely that you will be able to put designs on a clay pot using a red hot wire without wetting it again.
