Ah, I see. I think. I *really* need to break open that pack and play - I'm tending to see things primarily in terms of the techniques and methods I already know, without enough extrapolation. It hadn't occurred to me that you'd drill the clay before firing, for example - because setting (for me) is the last thing I do before a final polish!
So are you firing with stones in place then? Do you undercut the setting to allow for the shrinkage?
