After being asked so many times how I save my pots when glaze has dripped, stuck to cookies, or generally tried to ruin my day, I have finally filmed my whole grinding and rescue process. Fair warning… it is a beast of a video! I really did try to cut it down, but every time I removed too much it stopped giving the full picture, so I decided to leave the detail in and add chapters instead. That way you can jump straight to the section you need, or if you really want the full process, it is all there. I show the tools I use, rough prices, where I bought them, the different grinding bats, Dremel bits, cutting discs, wet grinding, different movements on the grinding bats, removing stuck cookies and drip catchers, smoothing awkward areas, combining different techniques depending on the piece, and then finishing the bases with ceramic/stone sealing wax so the colour looks more even again. I take a few different pieces from start to finish so you can see how each problem needs a slightly different approach. Huge disclaimer though: this is not the only way, it is not necessarily the best way, and I am definitely not claiming to be an expert. It is simply my process, developed over about four years of saving pieces that would otherwise have gone in the bin. There are health and safety risks with this sort of work, especially around dust, sharp ceramic, grinding tools and fired glaze, so please do your own research, use proper protection, and anything you choose to try is entirely at your own risk. Hopefully it is helpful for anyone facing a glaze-run disaster. Anyway, I’ll leave it there because after filming and editing this one, I now need to go and lie down in a darkened room!
