A video all about packing and firing my Rohde KG-340 gas kiln. I recently received from SIC kiln shelves too, which made packing all the more pleasurable and together with firing lots of glaze tests recently it has made for some very exciting kiln firings.

0:00 - Unpacking SIC, (Silicon Carbide) kiln shelves
2:16 - Preparing cone packs, (cones 8, 9 & 10)
5:50 - Packing gas kiln
15:34 - Firing gas kiln
21:23 - Unpacking gas kiln
22:19 - Some glaze test tiles
23:53 - Example of an under-fired pot
24:19 - The destruction of a crawled espresso cup
24:42 - Photographs of finished pots and macro images of glazes
26:29 - Cleaning glaze off of kiln shelf

Wadding recipe: 50% china clay, 50% coarse alumina hydrate, mix powders and then add water very slowly as the mixture tends to turn too watery very easily. So better to take it slow. Once it has a clay like consistency you can wedge it up and store it in an air tight container.

Although Rohde gifted me the kiln shelves we never discussed having a video made about them or mentioning Rohde, I simply do so as I'm a fan of the shelves and of the company. In the past we have had arrangements for discounts in exchange for promotion but this is just a pottery enthusiast talking about shelves.

Thanks as always for watching!
