Into the wee hours ......



Started the kiln for the second time for the next batch of mud made long eared MSO(mule shaped Objects) and we are on medium as I write this. I started the firing at 9 pm on low then went to medium at about 10:20. I usually leave my kiln run an hour and 20 to 2 hours on low, depepdning how bigthe pieces are. No big Pumkin in this one, so I decide 1hr 20 minutres will due just fine:)


When I put the kiln on Medium,I again leave it run at the stage for at least an hour. I use a cone 04 or 05 most of the time. I will turn it onto high for the last stage in firing in which it should run again for about 1-2 hours.


I still have bodies to fire and alot of cleaning to do within the next week. It was imparitive I fire tonight, for the simple fact that its suppose to rain for the next 3 days.




I Hope to be taking orders on these and advertising Once all are fired ad into the Bisque stage in which I will be underglazing! If your interested in a special color please lt me know:)
