Base Metal Clay - First Attempt!

This weekend I experimented with Fast Bronze Clay and  Copper Clay.  This is a photo of my first pieces which were fired at 825 degrees Celsius for two hours in coconut shell carbon.  I have a Prometheus kiln which has a small kiln space so I had to make my own firing box out of firing metal - which was an adventure itself!
