The billets were in the box and end up around 1 1/2" to 1 3/4" thick. The bubbles are at the top range 1/8 to 1/4 wide and maybe 1/8" +\- deep. I'll work a new schedule and if it doesn't work out, I'll just bust it up and start over.
Thanks

I fired 3 box castings at the same time using bullseye's suggested firing schedule from their educational video on Box Casting, 2 came out perfect and one came out with some not so nice bubbles, that just started to collapse, my question is, can I refire it at a longer, slower schedule. Should I dri...

Could I just rotate the steel band, heat it up then tighten and redrill it after I replace the bad crumbling brick?

OK, got the counter weight figured out, how about, how do I replace the kiln brick? Can I replace the brick with out having to taking the steel band off, along with everything else?

This has been a big help everyone, Thank You.

Thanks, now I got to find someone who doesn't have a problem with heights, my studio's ceiling is about 20+ feet.

Why not?

When I talked to Scutt they said I couldn't replace the brick, which I thought, why not? So, all I need to do is to cut out bad brick and replace it. Sounds easy, is it?

I'm at that point in my life where lifting the Scutt gm1414 kiln lid is a pain. Its to heavy and I seem to be tweeking the lid a bit when I lift it to the point where the brick has started to break at the hinge area and I'm afraid it's going to break completly apart. So, I'm looking at the Scutt lid...

So, for me it would be no wavey or flat panels with forms from dead sea creatures (I'm sure the neighbors have been wondering what I've been cooking in my kilns) and no abstract circle panels and no turq. blue.

Barbara I'm a picture framer and I'm not to sure by what you mean by channeled mirror frames. Could it be stain glass moulding which does have a channel? or something else. I carry 100's of samples in my shop and the only one with a channel is the Stain glass moulding. You could also use regular mou...

ps. Loved your work Jackie

Love the piece!! Did you do it in a mold to get the ripple effect? The frame looks perfect with it, simple and very zen garden like.

When you get to the end of the cut you need to slow down to a crawl.
