Playing in the mud is fun and stimulating

Second Bisque Firing
Loaded kiln before firing

This is the second bisque firing for my kiln. The firing was started on May 10 at 2PM and the fire was turned off at 5:27PM. The kiln door was opened on May 11 at 1PM.

All the pots made with the different clay bodies that I blogged about were in the kiln. The firing was successful (reached the expected temperature and nothing blew up) but there were various problems with some of the pots. I will update the previous blog entries to highlight the bisque firing results for those clay bodies.

This is the kiln after the firing. Notice the change in color of the pots.
