Last night I unloaded my soda kiln. After a full day of firing and a full day of cooling, you’re always a little anxious to unbrick the door and get your first peek of what’s inside. The front of the kiln is always “pounded” with a bit more soda… and there fore a bit more “gray.” But the backsides of those pots on the edge are usually pretty sweet, with great contrast to the soda blast zone. Here’s the front stack of the kiln…
And then the back stack of the kiln…
looks like pretty good coverage throughout. No dry spots that I can see so far.
Yep, everything turned out pretty well. A good coverage of soda on the pots.
A lot of nice flashing. Some sweet glaze effects.
A LOT of mugs… you know they’re my favorite thing to make!!!
A couple new sets of salt & pepper shakers…
And some new tiles, in a few new sizes…
