Wood Train Firing September 3 Saturday

Pricing sheet
Bisque 4” and less $4.00
Bisque up to 6” - $6.00
Bisque up to 10” - $10.00
Bisque up to 15” – $25.00
Anything larger is priced on an individual basis (see Thom or John)
All pieces must be paid for before we load on Saturday.
Cups, Tea Bowls, Bottles and Vases are more successful than Plates and Bowls.      Pieces with a lot of manipulation (not just round) catch the fire best.

Glazing for Wood Firing
Inside liner of Hamada Rust, Tea Dust, Celadon, White Salt, or Yellow Salt do well
Outside Glazes can be Shinos, Hamada Rust, Tea Dust, Celadon, or no glaze use some oxides wiped on and wiped off. The wood burning makes its own glaze.

Thom Bumblauskas and John Gregg always need help spiting wood and cleaning the kiln. Please just ask us when we are going to do it.
