www.simonleachpottery.com ...... well here we are ! ...back from travels in Europe (where we had limited internet access, barring internet cafes etc...) Actually this clip was made before leaving from Peters Valley in northern NJ. Interesting stuff & a first time for me at such a firing....certainly though something of a team effort needed to fire the beast !! KEEP PRACTICING - SL
I helped fire this kiln in the summer of 87. the results weren't very good because we fired for only 3 days. I've always wanted to go back and fire it right.

Thanks, Simon. Welcome back. I have to congratulate the people who built that kiln in the first place. It is a massive undertaking. I hope there is a web link to this group, as I would be interested to see the results of the firing.
