I used 22 gauge. The hinges are just little tubes of clay, one attached to the door, one to the wall. Run the wire through and bend it at each end. I'll let you know if I get just yellow blobs or the black works to show through the yellow!Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999463332198347326.post-83552185948379863632015-03-08T17:56:47.251-04:002015-03-08T17:56:47.251-04:00Wire that can take kiln heat is called Kanthal Wir...Wire that can take kiln heat is called Kanthal Wire, and comes in about 3 gauges at Highwater...I'm hoping this 22 gauge is enough. The hinges are just little rounds with a hole through them, where the wire is inserted, then bent at top and bottom. Since the hinges will shrink in the firing, I may try to tighten those bends after it's fired. Yes, the test is to see if the black lines will come through the yellow. I'll be letting you know...and may have some strange yellow blobs!Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999463332198347326.post-20384799468473513322015-03-08T17:54:22.460-04:002015-03-08T17:54:22.460-04:00Thanks...I'm coddling Muffin in her feebleness...Thanks...I'm coddling Muffin in her feebleness, hope she lives a bit longer.Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999463332198347326.post-21492165084698670732015-03-08T14:49:40.652-04:002015-03-08T14:49:40.652-04:00That is such a sweet little spirit house!!! and Mu...That is such a sweet little spirit house!!! and Muffin is a beautyMichèle Hastingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346907762804197879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999463332198347326.post-74466527645642412512015-03-08T14:15:54.434-04:002015-03-08T14:15:54.434-04:00curious how to make the hinge and if the line work...curious how to make the hinge and if the line work comes through the yellowLinda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.com
