For the past year I’ve been (very) slowly making and finishing a big stash of pots ready for the big first fire!
Enter a big old wobbly pile of ceramics, some of which have met their doom whilst waiting to join the fun.
But first enter the kiln!…
After much research and a balance between space, electical requirements and overall space I have opted for a lovely electric Rohde Kiln, with an internal capacity of 118L and a current requirement of 39A.
Rhonda unpacked…
She fits… Just!
After carefully following the instructions, and setting RHonda off on a “blind bake” and re-tightening her bands it was time to get cracking.
Packing the Rhonda for the first time was certainly enlightening! I used a batt wash on the kiln shelves which is simply superb for any glaze-sticky situations! 🙂
Hound approves of Rhonda’s first wares!
