Just wanted to say think you for sharing all your knowledgeable information with a great sense of humour. Really appreciate all your information on pottery.
So I rarely comment on videos, but this video is the exception! This video helped me so much! Thank you for explaining the entire process, even down to the water! Really helpful and much appreciated
1. Give at least two reasons to make your own glaze. Time: 0:50 It’s much cheaper than buying your glaze and it allows for a better relationship with your art work which grants you better control, over the many aspects of the work. 2. List the tools needed to mix your glaze. Hint: there is 7. Time: 3:30 Gram Scale, Cup, Sieve, Mason Jar, Towel, Dust Mask and a Scooper 3. What can you get if you don’t wear a Dust Mask? Describe what it is. Time: 3:41 Silicosis which is where dust containing silica goes into your lungs and doesn’t come out. 3B. Can it be cured? Why or why not? Time: 4:00 No since the silica will not come out of the lungs. 4. Why is the glaze recipe he makes called 5x20 recipe? Time: 4:30 It’s called the 5x20 recipe since it requires the 5 most basic glaze ingredients and you use 20% of each material. 5. In the majority of glaze recipes, the base of the glaze adds up to 100%. Time 5:39 6. Why did he put the mixture in the jar? Time: 10:40 To make sure he measures out each ingredient correctly and make sure they are air tight and mix it inside of the jar. 7. How come you pour the glaze mixture through a sieve? Time: 11:20 To make sure tiny minerals don’t go onto your piece ruining it. 8. Why do you want to wash everything immediately after your through with mixing? Time: 13:29 Because you don’t want to contaminate your other pieces since the glaze will dry on the equipment. 9. After you mix your glaze, the next thing you want to do is what? Hint: it requires a tile. Time: 14:50 To test the glaze on three types of clay to see their reaction. 10. Who was on his kiln? Time: 15:40 Astroboy 11. “A clean studio is a “happy” studio.” Time: 17:27 Extra Credit: What is the #on the bag of Frit in the background? Describe in your own words what that is. That one you’ll have to look up. The number on the bag in the background is Frit 3134. This a well known frit used over many years mainly for general purpose melter across all temperatures.
Just love your video, funny, precise! Ok, its a go for me to start creating my own glaze🥰 Question;? Can I brush these glaze on my pieces? If i create it more think? Or do I need some kind of “gum “ product to add? Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us all! Your friend from Québec 🇨🇦
Dante, you’re such a sweetheart for explaining all of the stuff so throughly and funnily at the same time 😄❤️ (I’m a beginner, so I appreciate it that much more) Could you pretty please make a video about throwing teapots? 🍵
Thank you so much for this video. It really helped to clarify things. Do you have any recommendations for which particulate masks to wear while mixing glazes?
I got the big bag of each ingredient to make 5X20, and since they come in 50lb sacks, and they cost about $250 altogether, I figure my base glaze costs about a dollar a pound.
Thank you so much for the info you provide it's awesome what you do love the outcome of your work...I want to ask... where's a good place to order raw materials?
Uhm hai, thanks for your sharing, i just found your video right now. And i want to ask you something. Why if i made a glaze it always have a different type of color like more light or more dark or even change into red/green while this glaze had to bee brown light color.. Does the position of the kiln matter?
thanks for this. I like how that 5/20 glaze breaks on the darker clay. Is this base good with stains and oxides for colors? Do you have a video for that?
Dante (Donte(?)) @Earth Nation Ceramics - Do you have a list of equipment and chemicals a beginner should get/have available prior to starting on their first glaze? Size sieve? Test Sieves or the larger ones? Tools? Certain common chemicals used in most glazes? Etc? - Sidebar: Jon the Potter pointed out a place to get cheap chemicals and stains (way cheaper than I can get locally in MN) plus, more you buy, cheaper it is, so good to know about common chemicals! Hope to hear something.... LOVE THE VIDEOS!!!
Putting things from right hand side to lefthand side - I do this when cooking and/or making spice mixes. It's the only method that makes sense. I hope someone gets something from that tip, it's seriously good.
I see that you don’t mix the dry chemicals before you put the water in. It seems to me that if I stir them around before I put water in they are easier to put through the sieve later on.
When I first started making glazes I had potters that did the chemicals 1st and Potters that did the water first. The main argument that The Potter's that use the chemicals first was that if they were adding more than a thousand Grams of of something it would make a cloud of smoke but the Potters that put the water first would claim that it didn't happen. So they did it that way for safety reasons, I've done it both ways and I don't really find one or the other way specifically helpful in the weight of the glaze comes out so I kind of just do whatever I feel in the moment. I've done water first and I've done chemicals first. This video just happened to show we doing it one way rather than the other.
Don't worry Cabult :) glazy. Org should have at the bottom of every glaze recipe as well as on the material list the MSDS hazards for each material. Oh so I don't know what a water bong is and I have never used one while making glazed so I am not sure
I am not a potter...someday maybe i love to work with clay but at this p oint in my life it's not feasable...if I'm honest I just come here to listen to Dante's snark and saltiness
Clown Whisper I’m finding that 5x20 is a decent glaze, and I’ve made a bunch of different coloured tests, but where I get the most interesting results is where I layer glazes, often a white over a fairly strong colour. Love those effects!
Clown Whisper I don’t use commercially prepared glazed at all. But every time I make a big pail of glaze, even if it is one I’ve used before, I test it on a tile or a single piece, just to be sure.
It is shocking that in usa people are so clueless when it come to %. If it say 20%. No need to explain more. 20% mean 20parts for 100parts total. Part can be anything like gram , Litters, pounds, ml.... so for a recipe of 20% rutile, 40% epk, 30% silica and 10% EPk. The total will be 100% of course so it will be 20g 40g 30g 10g =100g total. If you want to make 500 g total. Just multiply by 5. If you want to make 300g just multiply by 3

Thank you soooo much!! I’ve been searching for answers on understanding and interpreting glaze recipes!
I know nothing about glazes and ceramics, but your video was so well done I watched the entire thing.
Dante, you’re such a sweetheart for explaining all of the stuff so throughly and funnily at the same time 😄❤️ (I’m a beginner, so I appreciate it that much more)
Could you pretty please make a video about throwing teapots? 🍵
Have you done a video on just the basic base recipes you mentioned?
Thank you for explaining things so well!
Thanks for the detailed information!
I'm sure adding one of those mixing balls inside will make the mixing a lot faster and easier before you sieve it. Just a thought.
Thank you so much for this video. It really helped to clarify things. Do you have any recommendations for which particulate masks to wear while mixing glazes?

Amazing, you answered so many questions! Thank you!
Hey! Thanks for making this fun and less intimidating! I’ve subscribed!
Merci !!
thank you!!
made glazing seem a lot less intimidating! :)
Thank you so much for the info you provide it's awesome what you do love the outcome of your work...I want to ask... where's a good place to order raw materials?
Um, did you misspell your name Donte? Thanks for sharing, you've taught me a lot!
You are so funny. I really enjoyed and learnt a lot from this. Thank you soooo much.
Thanks, for sharing! Great information. 😊
this is amazing

If you want to make your own glazes and experiment Mr. Dirtfarmer sells an excellent filtered hardwood ash.
Thanks. Good first step.
Hi , thank you so much
I just cant understand the difference between oxides and stain and emaills (France word) please !
wouldn't it make more sense to sift the particulate before you add the water? or does it not matter??

Yes, you certainly don’t want your colouring oxides to get lost, especially not Cobalt, at the price they currently charge for that!
Thank you
Thank you for this amazing video :)
Oh thank the kiln gods FINALLY
Thanks for requesting is ;)

"I like everything a little thicker..." LOL! Ok girl... we get ya'.
Yah old school TMNT cup
My old glaze cup :). You should see the inside.
Say, what was the book with the "3-6" in the title? Also, any other books on glaze-making that you would recommend?
How do you know if a glaze is food safe? I am so worry about the glaze I am using right now O.o >
I see that you don’t mix the dry chemicals before you put the water in. It seems to me that if I stir them around before I put water in they are easier to put through the sieve later on.

I've done water first and I've done chemicals first. This video just happened to show we doing it one way rather than the other.
can you plz tell m how to make clear glaze
Are there any differences between “The Glaze Book” and “The Potter's Book of Glaze Recipes”?
Which puppy? I need to know so I can scale how scared I am
Hey! Just curious.. the website that you mention for glazes is it www.lazy.org? I’ve tried to look it up but I don’t think I’ve found the right one?
Glazy
What do you like about 5 x 20?
Which mask are you using there?
An OSHA cert mask with I bought from home Depot. Always OSHA.
I swear you look more Maltese than I do. And I'm Maltese.
What is the size of the mesh for the sieve?
Clean out your measuring cup, and/or switch to a glass measuring cup!
What cone temp does this recipe use?
He said cone 5/6 oxidation ☺️
MSDS or SDS come on safety first pls. Also my mask has a water bong on it is that ok??????
Don't worry Cabult :) glazy. Org should have at the bottom of every glaze recipe as well as on the material list the MSDS hazards for each material. Oh so I don't know what a water bong is and I have never used one while making glazed so I am not sure

Did you say Grogle when you meant Grolleg (prounced Grawlig)?
i can hear that you dont wear a mask *Jebaited
Shhhhhhh ;)
Clown Whisper 5x20 is glossy.
Clown Whisper I’m finding that 5x20 is a decent glaze, and I’ve made a bunch of different coloured tests, but where I get the most interesting results is where I layer glazes, often a white over a fairly strong colour. Love those effects!
Clown Whisper I put 12% Ultrox in the clear glaze to make it white.
Clown Whisper I don’t use commercially prepared glazed at all. But every time I make a big pail of glaze, even if it is one I’ve used before, I test it on a tile or a single piece, just to be sure.
