My weed burner came in the mail this afternoon and I wasted no time getting everything ready for the first real test of the tiny test kiln.
I prepared 3 sets of glaze tile pairs and set them in the kiln, along with one Orton cone (#6). I fired it up at 4pm. At 5pm cone 6 was flat. Easy peasy! Next time, all the way to cone 10, when I have some more free time for testing.
-
- just lit it up.
-
- after about 30 minutes
-
- after an hour, burner off and lid off to cool it down quickly.
Great little kiln. It would be great if you could share the dimensions.
If you check out the first test kiln post, it shows the kiln being built.
