The kiln is on and was at 104F when I checked a few minutes ago. I’m bisque firing a load of mugs, bowls, vases, and a few other items. I’ve been busy the last two weeks trying to get everything thrown, assembled and dried so I can get it fired today. Next weekend I hope to glaze fire so I can have a good selection of Christmas presents to choose from.
My school was canceled last Monday so I had a chance to do some online shopping at the clay supply stores. Clay-King sent me a $5 off coupon in their email newsletter and they had glazes on sale so I decided to go with them. I ordered a few small tools, a pint of clear glaze, some kiln posts, and a 10lb. bag of Saturated Iron dry glaze mix. Everything except the dry glaze powder was at my house on Wednesday (only 2 days!) and the dry mix ships direct from the factory so it will arrive separately.
