We loaded the big kiln again on Tuesday, and I succumbed to an odd impulse--I did a slow video pan, showing all the pots stacked up waiting, and the big, empty space where they were going. Popped the raw footage up on Instagram, but spent a little time polishing it today. Found the perfect musical accompaniment: Lou and Peter Berryman's "So Many Pies," from their first album, No Relation.
We started loading around 9:30 am, finished by 3 pm. Contrast how the shelves and kiln looked at the start, with how they looked afterwards.


Just for fun, I calculated just how many pots were loaded in the kiln this time. I came up with 310, total. And of that huge expanse of pots from the beginning of the process, this is all that was left.
