Hour 30, 1125 in front, 900f in back. Turns out the pyrometer wasn’t broken, the kiln was just damp.
Off to a slow start, but we’re only a few hours behind the last few firings now.

It should be 200 or 300f in the front of the kiln. The goal at this point is to slowly heat everything up at about 50f an hour. We start with the fire outside the kiln. Not too worried about the thermocouple, we’ll fix it once people are awake.

I saved him for last since I just wasn’t sure about the piece. Ironically enough, this is the time slot of many of my favorite pieces.
