NEW YEAR DAY FIRING
Before and after photographs of firing to glaze some bird leg tiles made by patrons and friends before Xmas with a low firered glaze and check out how other glazes react to that firing range.
These two photographs show a few items being re fired in a test firing.
The items in the kiln are all damaged in some way and have been arranged in the kiln to put pressure on them so as to create a situation when the kiln reaches temperature repairs can be effected by welding with glaze using gravity and the positioning of the item to create a form of repair.
The left hand, top shelf photo, shows some prototype Relationships with pyrometric cones.
The right hand, bottom shelf photo, shows two bowls, and two vases, one a VOW and one a Mortar.
