    Vettepilot;
    Look at page 222, at the bottom. That should help. Look back from there and I think it will be close, where he posted about the kiln, as well.

    Pucked up and ground 400 more grams of powder. Used 3% moisture this time - similar grinding results though even though I probably did 20 passes, most with the coarse setting.

    Ended up with a bit over half 3F, the rest fines. May need even more water. Or perhaps I can just deal with it as is. It's very functional after all.
    Got the 3F glazing right now.



    And since I'm building up more and more powder, it really needs to go into a bottle.

    Thanks Doublebuck! That "search" function is worthless.

    I like that label Printedboolits! Nice work, and thanks for sharing it!

    I looked through my test notes and found an approximate date to search. It got me fairly close.
