    I am currently making work tools. I liked your original stand. It's a pity I couldn't find any drawings for it on the Internet. I will try to make one based on the image from in

    It never occured to me that enamels left scale. It should have, but didn't. Great instructions.

    Silly question. Now that you have back enamel applied, you cans just working on the front as desired?
    Or do you have to reprep the face b4 enameling?
    Safe to assume the back enamel is not effected by the torch as the front layers are applied ?

      Once the back enamel is applied, you clean the front face (raw copper side) one more time, then can apply enamel to the front as usual.

    Hi could you tell me what gauge of copper would you need so you don't need to counter enamel . thanks

    So once the powder melts and then cools, it will not remelt even if reheated? Interesting!

      Yes, it will melt again when heat is applied. But the layer is thin, and it does not pool unless exposed to heat for an extended period of time.

    I’m new to enamelling and my layers just keep cracking and falling off… will this help stop that?

    i can you tell me how I can stop getting trivet marks when I counter enamel the marks are from where the piece touches the trivet
    Thanks

    Very cool I didn’t know you could get scale in the enamel, or that multiple layers of enamel could put pressure on a piece. A question I have is can you torch fire like you showed on the front side without the back enamel melting off?

    • @NatureOfEnameling

      Yes, the enamel on the back does become molten when torch firing the front, but it does not go anywhere, it stays in place.

    I enjoyed your video, it was very informative! ☺ Quick question - I have a piece I counter enamelled (before knowing I would need extra layers for balance) is it possible to go back and add more black? Eg, one side has 2 or 3 layers, the other only 1. Or would it ruin the front side? Thank you 😊
