Tony: So now I am more confused. What I am thinking about doing is using the ss ring as dam to contain the glass from a pot melt. The sides would be straight up and down, and that would be the idea - to have 90 degree sides. Lots and lots of kiln wash?? I don't think fiber paper would work in this s...

A friend of mine has a Gryphon bandsaw and he had tons of problems with it for the longest time - to the pont that he was putting the blade on backwards (can you believe that??) - just to get the *^%$ thing to stay on. He finally called the company and they said that they had had problems with that ...

Charlie: Well, we'll see what happens tonight when I open it up. I did go a little slower on the cooldown, just in case the bottom of the piece is cooling faster than the top. My tech guy moved the thermocouples yesterday so that they are more evenly placed, with one in the center down low near the ...

Charlie - you were close when you made the assumption about the kiln design - the only difference is that I am not firing on boards - I laid out a fiber blanket right on the bricks and am firing on that. I wonder if the bottom is cooling too fast. Other than that, your assumptions were pretty close....

Did you change anything other than the schedule? How far are the edges of the glass from the wall elements? How far is the surface of the glass from the ceiling elements? How many wall elements are there? How many ceiling elements? Can you raise your shelf so that it is above the wall elements witho...

Ok, you all...I will check the archives about the tin coating and research where to get a uv light. Re the firing schedule: this is what I'm thinking of doing, based on ALL the excellent feedback I have been getting: 250 dph to 1450 hold 1 hr afap to 1200 hold 20 min afap to 1040 hold 1 hr 100 dph t...

Hmmm. I got the 1510 from an old thread I found on the board as I was looking for firing schedules for float. I doubt that I would have to go that hot - I don't generally. All the variables that we deal with make algebra look easy! So: What if I do this: 250 dph to 1450 hold 1 hour afap dph to 1040 ...
