We did a Raku firing on Sunday. I've blogged about these before, so won't explain what that is. Just say that it involves waiting around for things to heat up and then to cool down. There are brief moments of haste (carrying very hot pieces from kiln to burning barrel, but mostly it's sit around and wait. I was there from 1 PM until about 8 - a very long day. Everyone brings food to share and come evening we build a fire in a barrel and burned (oops, I mean grilled) hot dogs for dinner. This was a very successful firing for me, as I came home with 3 pieces that I really like and one that is ok. These are the ones I like.
