Kiln Openning

The kiln finally cooled enough to open by un-bricking the door. Here is an overall view of the ware.



The front part of the kiln was loaded with Amy's plates. Below is the kiln half unloaded.



Here is what a clone pack looks like from the other side of the spy hole. The cone bending is cone 10, the one still standing is cone 11. This is in the top of the kiln in the back. On the bottom, cone 11 was down hard.



Rob's face jugs, Amy's crock and Jody' test tiles.



The glaze on the test tile to the far left is "Salt Shino" from John Britt's book, the one to the left of it is "Oatmeal" from Mark Issenberg. The rest of the tiles are glazed with "Bird Matt", a glazed that is a standard at the Appalachian Center for Craft. The difference is the amount of Cobalt Carbonate added. Tile #3 0%, tile #4 0.5%, tile #5 1%, tile #6 2%, tile #7 3%, tile #8 4% and tile #9 6%.
