A Chicago potter’s somewhat slanted view of clay & play

So the latest Ghouls made it into the kiln last night around 2:30am.
Loaded carefully. Layer by layer. Closed the lid. Pushed start.
Watched the numbers turn on, and raise with the temperature for about a half hour.

Imagine my surprise tonight when luckily I just stopped in to check the kiln…
only to find that it NEVER fired?!!! What the?… Front panel totally dead.
No red flashing CPLT as there should have been.

So I had to do a quick unload-reload into different kiln to try again.
Good thing I stopped in to check, huh?

Looks like we may have some warm Ghouls coming out to The Barn on Saturday?
Fingers crossed… again!!!
