And when that happens, you lose your piece of material, it doesnt destroy
our computer file When a piece blows up in the kiln, several hours of work
can be destroyed, Glaze can drip and ruin another piece and even ruin a
kiln shef
Let me share a little of the process, Lets say you are throwing a bowl. You come in
and stake your wet chlay and sit at a wheel and throw, When you get one you like, and that
may not be the first on, you take it off the wheel and place it to dry. Now you have to clean up the
wheels and that will take I am guessing at least 15 min (I hand build, so cleaning wheels is nto
something I do often)
Then in a couple of days you come back in and you trim your bowl and you clean up
again Now the piece can be dry some more and in a few days it can be bisqued
After it is gisqued, it is ready to glaze and since we have limited space, you may not be able to
easily, Clean up after glazing is not a huge amoung of work
