OK, So Raku / Bisque kiln built ! Itching to fire, 25 pots-bowls etc made, my first trial bisque firing tomorrow !!! fingers crossed.Hope they are all dry enough as don't want any explosions, Ouch.

  1. I remember reeading about the industrial pottery kilns at school...seems that the same problems have to be overcome in smaller quantities too.
    I have a feeling I'll learn quite a bit about pottery on your blog.
