wood/salt firing

The firing went well; it was candled Fri. night with gas, then fired with wood all day and night on Sat. We got to temperature in the first chamber around 2 a.m. on Sunday, and salted it with a total of around 35 lbs. of salt (the first chamber had not been salted before.) The second chamber then got to temperature quickly and we salted it (maybe 15 lbs.), and were done by 7 a.m. Final temperatures varied from cone 9 to about cone 12 or so.

I am participating in a wood-fired salt firing next week. Hope to get some nice pots out of the kiln.
