Karma?



".. and my coffee is cold, I can take it."
I was wrong. I admit it! It happens occasionally.   It was not my error that caused the kiln to fail on me.  I had programmed it perfectly.  It seems asking it to go up at a rate of 150 degrees C per hour is asking too much.  Funny, it worked last time, and the time before that and before that.  I have committed to a bigger and better kiln to replace this one, one with NO rust or door falling off the hinge, one that BLOOMING works and does not cause me angst, lack of sleep and loss of my work.  Do you think it knows??

  1. Commiserations! I share a kiln with a pottery group and my last firing didn't get to top temp - I then had to unpack and repack, refire in a second kiln :^(
