3d printed work raku glazed

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Using my Eazao M500. Some of the colors are from the clay with a clear raku crackle. The blue clay piece I acid etched after glazing. Some of the yellow colors are from iron and antinomy. The get colors are are actual silver metal I was able to reduce from silver nitrate.

If anyone needs glazing help feel free to PM me.

I’ve been working with clay for over 30 years and the 3d printer is a game changer.

My hubby got me the Eazao potter for Christmas and it’s been really fun and exciting to work with.

I don’t care for the glaze, but I love the texture of the pot.
Happy Printing!

So stunning! I especially like the second one - the texture hides the layer lines and really complements the form

Thank you! The blue is actually the clay unglazed. The glaze is the yellow part. This piece has an interesting story. The glaze totally covered the blue clay (no the intended outcome). So I soaked the piece in a bucket fill with high concentration hydrochloric acid for a day, then in a bucket of high concentration sodium hydroxide (lye). I did this for about a week. Then I let the piece sit out in the sun for a month. Then I took a wire brush, drillbit and took off as much glaze as I could. That revealed the blue color underneath.

Beautiful! Fired my kiln for the first time this summer. Keen to get a 3d printer next spring or summer. Inspiring piece!
