Always a Good Sign-

Firing a bisc without using any shelves is, I think, a small sign that something is working properly- that there's a connection between your production and your kiln size- that's how we fired bisc back at Robin Welch's studio in the 70's- a whole [big] electric kiln just stacked with cups from floor to ceiling. I made a lot of cups in those days- that's probably where I came to love making cups and handles, which is what I'm doing this morning...
