So I’m rushing towards my next soda kiln. Lots of new pots in the studio. Some of them not quite dry yet… but I’ve got to get them bisqued tonight or they won’t make it into the soda kiln!!! So it may not be my best & tightest kiln loading ever… but luckily my soda students had some greenware that helped fill my kiln. So we shared some kiln space… and loaded carefully so as not to stack or nest any pots that were still damp. No explosions here!!!
Layer #1 – flower pots, mugs and some student mugs & cylinders.
Layer #2 – bowls, mugs, flower pot water dishes… and some student plates.
Layer #3 – stamped vases, bowls, mugs… and more student work!
Layer #4 – half a layer with a couple more bowls, and just a “few” stacked & tumbled to fit.
