It's a clear, safety-first system designed for beginners and experienced crafters alike who want reliable results without a kiln.

Every technique is explained step by step, with realistic expectations and built-in safeguards to prevent cracking, scorching, or damage. This book emphasizes control over speed, helping you understand why techniques work-not just how to copy them.
