Mart Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 I need to glaze fire a pile of plates. Problem is, only one plate fist per kiln shelf so I end up having more shelves (in weight) than plates. Is there a better way to do it because this feels like a such a waste.

bciskepottery Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 If plates and platters are part of your regular offerings, you might want to invest in these: http://www.highwaterclays.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_ID=247 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mart Posted November 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Thank you bciskepottery for the link. Plates and platters are not part of our product list but maybe we need to change that. Those guys are closer to us. http://www.ipsceramics.com/setters.php Now I need to find someone in EU mainland. Germany perhaps. Ouch... Looks like those cost as much (or more) than kiln shelves.

phill Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 For glazing--I just used a garbage can lid to put the glaze in. Then I dip my platter, holding the edges with both hands and swirl like I'm panning for gold. You leave fingerprints, but I really enjoy those so it's a plus for me.
