Wish us luck.

Alright it took a bit of time organizing & finding all my test clays & Potts. I 1st started on this endever of making my very own-very fine, white, Translucent, & extremely friendly to throw porcelain around February of 2015. This isn't all the test clays & Potts made from the tests some of them are missing. Anyway the video shows # 1 - # 72. More in-depth explanations & pictures to come.

This is a wood fired kiln that Jerry Dickey has been building the the last 7 years. I have also had the pleasure to help in the construction. Hopefully we can get it competed before it gets to cold.
