Off to salt kiln rebuild.

Any chance we can see progress pictures along the way?
-
Pictures are being taken; too tired at night to upload. Kiln hard bricks literally weigh a ton. Did a lot of dry fitting with arch yesterday, warm up for the real event. Challenge on this one was building kiln to fit existing chimney -- although we increase flue size to match burners. Love hydraulic jacks. On to day 3.

I can't wait to see pictures. I also assume we get to see pictures of the first unload of actual pots?
-
Helping a fellow potter (in return for free firing) -- kiln floor and bag wall, cut posts from brick, hung new lights. Salt fire next weekend.

Mark -- wet diamond saw, yeah. Big bricks into little bricks.

More like clay inaction. Have a major salt firing in April (1/3 of kiln); making wares like bat out of hell.

Welcome to the fold

One day I want to make some pots for a wood or salt firing. I really need to connect with other potter's in GA. I would love to have some wood fired pots in my house.

Having trouble getting to sleep? Ordered a 1000 lbs of clay. Always an incentive to start making.

Art on the Avenue in Del Ray, Alexandria, VA has been rescheduled for Sat. Oct 10 due to weather. See you then.

NC Clay Club blog site just posted a notice for sale of pottery studio equipment in the Hampton, VA area. Wheels, kilns, pug mill, tools, etc.

Looks like the server migration gave the forum temporary amnesia for a 24 hour period, 6/30-7/1. The Administrators are aware. If you posted or added to your gallery, check to see if items are there; if not, you'll need to repost.
