The Kiln is cooling



Here is a photo of some new small toggle clasps in the greenware stage. Now they are glazed and the big kiln is cooling. I will open it later today. The thermocouple in my smaller kiln AIM 88 needs to be replaced so my firing this week has been delayed until I could get enough together to use the bigger kiln. I feel lucky to have this backup. Since Aim is closed temporarily for "restructuring" I am working with Bailey on which is the right thermocoupler. I am also going to put the question out there to the Beads-of-Clay Group. Wish me luck.

  1. Hi Mary

    Your beads are so beautiful. I wish I had found your site before Valentine's Day! I would have loved some of those heart beads. Blogging is new to me, but so far so much fun! I loved your ABS submission for last month and am planning on entering for this month! Very exciting!
