Sallubrious Posted October 26, 2017 I was gifted a stir plate (thanks @Change ) and all it needed was a new power chord. When I pulled it apart a few ceramic insulators fell out because they'd cracked. They are not an off the shelf replacement part, so I have to make some more. I have some air dry clay (Reno Art) that can be fired at 1100 - 1300 deg C. which seems close to the temp range used for porcelain. Does anyone know if that type of clay will do the job? Also can I fire the parts I make in charcoal and do I need to bisque fire them first? I could rig up an air blower if I need to get it hotter, but being lazy I'd rather just bury them in the coals and dig them out when they're done 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
