Hi Clayarters,
Okay. Big deal here at chez Steveni. Going for a ^6 firing for the first
time. Using M^6G as ref for firing rate and temp for the inaugural firing
(p144). And I've placed pyrometric cones in the kiln aas well for the first
time in a long, long time.

be happier with a long hold at 1000 dC. Another firing. But I also realize
that this firing will be like the Parson's Egg: good in parts. Golly, isn't
this anticipation just the biggest kick! Whoooooee!
