Crazy Crawling Stuff
I was able to get lots of good advice on the crawling problem I had with this glaze. I haven't reformulated the glaze to improve it's leveling behavior. That will have to come when I finish another phase of throwing and bisquing. You can see that on this pot the same glaze worked reasonably well with no crawling. I WILL reformulate to include some important organics next time. However I have to give props to those who put their finger on the possible cause as having too much moisture in the pot while the glaze dried. The pot that crawled had been sitting in my shop for some time and had accumulated dust on its surface. In order to clean off the dust I dunked the pot in water before glazing. I let it sit for a couple hours but when I did dip it in the glaze it was pretty wet. Thanks for all your input. More next time I mix.....
