creative class, but no product

By CarolKramer on August 8, 2022

Pros : You can be very creative.

Cons : All you do in the class is design the outer rim of the bowl and fill it with your desired pattern. I had wished I received more instructions or directions prior to class so I could have had time to either think plan or sketch a design, not something impromptu. The instructor then does all the firing. The problem is it is now almost 7 weeks since I have had the class and I still don't have my finished project!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Other Thoughts : This would be better as an online class. I could have ordered the product I need, taken some time to think about what I want, then follow the instructions, fired it myself and had a finished product in a fraction of the time AND it would have been a better learning experience learning the firing.

Best class yet at Delphi

By KWG on July 1, 2019

Pros : New process, great coaching by Roy, learned from others in the class

Cons : Wish it were a little longer, maybe a 3 hour class? Or maybe it was just this group.

Other Thoughts : Have taken several classes at Delphi over the past 3 years. Roy Kapp is just an amazing resource who is most willing to share everything he knows. Takes time with every student and answered all our many questions.

It's Hard Waiting

By margaretb on June 28, 2019

Pros : -so fascinating -learned a lot about 'personalities' of glass -a new avenue for me to explore -Roy is again his humourous knowledgable self!

Cons : -could you make this over two days so we could at least see our patty before it is dropped? -perhaps we could do two sizes... I would really like to know more about the actual fusing. I'm not sure my little kiln would handle this..

Other Thoughts : Looking forward to Kiln Cast Bowls 202
