And thanks for making the DVD on the kurinuki method.<br />I made a box with a triangular key for the lid. Separating the lid from the bottom tends to mess up the key. I'll try cutting the lid at an angle.<br />If you have any suggestions let me know what you propose.<br />Walt PotterUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03693589130691696053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5521257976097627265.post-57094962521231323622016-08-21T17:18:20.775-04:002016-08-21T17:18:20.775-04:00I saw this on the Greek island of Samos where Pyth... <br />I saw this on the Greek island of Samos where Pythagorus lived and invented this cup. The owner of the handmade gift shop explained that the idea of the cup (also known as the fairness cup & sometimes the greedy cup) applies to the affect of excess in one's life, including exploiting the environment. They are still handmade by local artisans.

I think you're right on with your analysis. It is difficult to see exactly the white flecks in the picture, but I wonder-- if they are crystalline effects--maybe increasing the rate of cooling slightly could help as well. <br />I couldn't find a reference about the E1 firing cycle at the moment, so excuse the comment from ignorance.
