Ok I think it’s kiln time. #pottery #ceramics
Oops not yet, still a little hot. 150 F
If it’s gonna ping it’s gonna ping
Looks like hit a solid 6 on top #ceramics #pottery #holidayKilnOpening
Well kitten clear apparently does not need two coats

This is fine; happy with carvings, glaze pretty good. A worthy Xmas gift for MIL.

Note this is cinco blanco clay and pinging like heck. The other bowls are b mix and are not. Beginning to think cinco blanco just is terrible

Next level - solid 6. More of the same on the red bowls (cloudy). Temp appears to have been consistent top to bottom. Brown mugs darker than I thought they’d be but we’ll see how the sides look. Bottom test tiles also super cloudy. Light blue bowl glaze is clumpy and cloudy. Looks like the low COE glaze needs to be thinner and dipped not brushed.

Rest of shelf - another nice blue bowl and more ok reds
