Warped rims on my porcelain sculptures

Bernardita Cossio posted a topic in Studio Operations and Making Work

Hi everyone! I have been struggling with warping rims on my porcelain pieces. I was wondering if you could give me some advice on this matter. To provide some context, I make porcelain pieces using handmade leather molds. The challenge I am facing is keeping the rim in a circular shape, as it warps during the glaze firing process. I am considering firing the pieces at cone 6 to minimize the warping. However, I am also concerned that firing them upside down could cause the body's weight to bend the walls. Do you have any suggestions or methods I could use to avoid this issue?
