When drilling, place the orfice upside down in a vise and drill from the threaded backside towards the head. This will reduce or eleminate any burs that could cause a whistling sound as the gas moves over the surface of the orfice hole.

Oriental Glazes is an instructive guide that emphasizes firing in a flame kiln (using gas, oil, propane, or wood), with the oxygen supply restricted at the top end of the firing. This creates the reducing effect that brings about the changes, especially to the metallic coloring oxides copper and iron, that produce the subtle and beautiful qualities associated with the classic Far Eastern glazes.

There are only four chapters in the the book, but they exhaustively cover the materials you need for a good understanding of each topic. Chapter 1 discusses glaze cores such as feldspars and rocks, and also includes lithium glaze cores, volcanic ash glaze cores and rotten stone. In Chapter 2, Clays and Claybodies, you'll discover the unique characteristics of different types of clays: kaolins, ball clays, stoneware, fireclays, and iron-rich clays. Chapter 3 discusses auxiliary melter - materials added to the glaze-core to help it achieve a greater melt and fusion. There are many different kinds of melters, but at stoneware temperatures, it is the limestone or calcium-based melters that are most important for the stoneware glaze. The internal oxide structure of limestone is mostly calcium carbonate, which turns into calcium oxide during the firing process. For this reason, whiting, wollastonite, dolomite, gerstley borate and colemanite receive primary attention in this chapter. Rounding out the critical components are the auxiliary silica and alumina minerals discussed in Chapter 4. In discussing silica, Obstler touches on the qualities it lends to a glaze: hardness, glassmaker, crystalline formation and the effect on fluidity and melt. Alumina posseses many unique properties as well and these are covered in depth. Net Wt. is 2.84 lbs.
