After a correspondence with a well known Canadian potter that makes
wonderful none electric firing I came to this conclusion.
In reduction you work a lot during firing in order to get the best of
your firing. In oxidation I work a lot before firing the actual ware:
testing learning and more testing and learning. When the kiln is on it's
automate control at 340C I can go home! And the "magic" is done ( or
not)
