Firing Gas Cone 10 Reduction - 4 Tips and Tricks that WORKED!!

[@BlakeSmith-yr7nl]

Glaze runs often come from being too thick and or the two glazes fluxing too much from the interaction between them. Learning reduction firing can take some time! One other thing that might help to dial in your results on the firings is watch what angle you are putting your cones in your cone pack. The pre-fired cones seem to be leaning too much in the clay cone pack which can cause a false reading (bending too soon) Enjoy the journey with your new kiln!

Welcome back Potter John, hope your summer is going well.

My only problem with this is that I don't understand what's the season! Monday is Spring, Friday is winter???

Thank you for using three stilts/legs per shelf and lining them up vertically. I would suggest packing your work even closer together. You might get 10-20% more work in the kiln. Take no more gas to fire a tightly packed kiln but the cost per pice is lower as the gas cost is spread over more work.

Can you share the firing schedule ?. Did you try experimenting with redaction before glaze matured?

[@cherylbowman5036]

You are inspiring me John. I love gas fired pieces. I do have a small kiln I could convert to gas. I have cone 6 glazes and cone 6 clay. Can I do a cone 6 gas fire?

[@HokiHumby]

yes

John, how much taller do you throw your mugs, to make up for shrinking.

[@dpie4859]

How much gas do you consume in one burn?

Hey Jon - what combination did you use at 7:59. That looks sick! 😍

[@kevinjamiesonbelou]

hey there jon the potter i dont know of any other way to get ahold of you with this simple question....im setting up shop and trying to get prepared to ship pottery and having a hard time deciding what boxes i need to purchase...what sizes of boxes do you tend to buy??? i do understand there are a lot of options and they probably are all usable, but i cant buy them all, just hoping to have an opinion on where to start?? thanks ( im sure im not the only person thinking of this)
