Thanks for these videos Bobby. Great for those of us who couldn't be there. How do they keep the larger pieces from cracking when they reheat them?

[acroduster]

@TimiaGlass no problem, they keep the pieces garaged in kilns at 1050 so they are annealing while they are working. then they introduce them back to the flame very carefully and slowly, usually with a high propane flame. its tough, and sometimes the pieces do break, last year several competitors fell out of the running when their pieces broke, this year I did not see any break.
