Gas Kilns

24/5/2021

0 Comments

 
Both kilns have been fired and work is on the  shelves. We plan to fire the down draught kiln  during the week of 13th June. Work needs to be  labelled and on the shelves by the 12th. 

Please note that Purple Haze, Silverton Blue  and Van Guider's Ash are not suitable for a  1300 firing and need to be fired in the updraught  kiln.

Club Raku

We had a great day for the club raku. It would have been easier if the gas supply had arrived but Caitlin and Jeavons got into action keeping us supplied with 9kg cylinders. Thanks also to Connor at Otaki Hammer Hardware who stepped into the breach. Sandra Sinclair came well prepared to demonstrate Obvara and it wasn't long before others were joining in. Neil Hey quietly worked away with his kiln 
showing us how a master worked! Thank you to everyone who helped and took part, especially Val Waugh and Jenny Rose (an old hand) who arrived early and were still there at the end. It was a fun day. 
​
People were asking if they could get together in a small group to raku so this request will go forward to the committee for consideration.
