September 7

I'm finally going to use my deep bowl mold. First I'm fusing a two layer disk, then I will slump it in the mold. This is a tricky one (bullseye glass, the manufacturer of it said so) I have to put on special green glasses and look in the kiln to stop the slump when the center hits bottom. That will be tomorrow when the disk comes out of the kiln.

The pictures were taken this morning with poor light, it is pouring rain here, and the camera needs to be recharged.

Bottom layer - sliced to let air escape.

New kiln!!!!!!!!

My new kiln arrived this morning. I was so excited I was up extra early and gave a cheer when the UPS man arrived.Here it is just out of the box. The inside diameter is 15",  weighs in at 25 pounds, and is fast.

My old kiln did this last week:
