Anagama

This year's model has a nifty heat-resistant glass window in the door. How heat resistant is something of a guess [some say 800 degrees,some say 1200] but we will find out. Up to 500,it was blackened by carbon,but was clear enough a bit later to take this picture. I talked to Meir a few hours ago: the firing is going well- cone 10 going down at the front [1300 degrees] in the approved fashion. I hope there'll be some firing left to do when I head down again after Shabbat.
