I am a newbie and just bought my first kiln. I am getting ready to make test tiles from the various clays I'll be using.. Does anyone have a favorite test tile design they like that can be hung on a pegboard after the finished product is achieved? Photo appreciated and thanks for your feedback!

Two more parts to be delivered then my forced air burner will be in nearly working condition

My husband was on TV yesterday for the NSF news conference in brownsville, Tx re; the discovery of Gravitational Waves. He works at the Center for Gravitational Waves Astronomy. He is still very excited by the discovery.

Great bird watching in the back yard: Osprey, Anhinga, Egrets, three types of heron, Rosiette Spoonbill, and Ibis, Green-winged Teals, Coots, Cormorants. All this is very distracting but exciting to watch.

I peeked in the kiln, which is too hot to unload. Entire top shelf is ruined. Don't know about the rest yet.

Broken HDMI ports are a pain...

Glazing. Its what happens to people who enjoy making things but then can't always decide what those things should look like once fired

How cold it is.

A fireplace makes a pretty comfortable place to brush underglaze details...particularly when it is chilly in the studio

Just threw off the hump for the first time. Can't wait to get more clay to try a larger amount! A very exciting evening all round. :-D

I'm pretty sure that I am not crazy...but I might be a carrier. Definitely crazy-busy on new ocarina projects and still recovering from the holiday rush.

I am going to have a lot of time to read while I wait in the coming months, anyone have any opinions on a few good pottery books, informative or inspirational or both?
