Maiden Voyage


Just finished the maiden voyage of the Experimental Soda Kiln at the studio. The class had a firing and we will see the results tomorrow. We fired from about 9 am to 7 pm and put in 0ne pount of soda ash. We will let you know how it went tomorow.
I am sure we can fire it faster next time as this was a slow firing to dry out and fire the castable.
