About 100 pots of varying size were fired last week with mixed results (see larger image). The temperature got very hot at the front & top (cone 10 flat) but was a little cool at the bottom (cone 8 bending). The was probably due to the kiln props holding the first set of shelves being too short preventing sufficient circulation of air & flame. The result was some underfired work at the bottom of the kiln and some bloated pots at the front & top.
