Kiln Thoughts...

     I have decided to buy the kiln under my name, and use the grant money to rent it (from me) till the end of the school year, then let the school keep it.  I just found out that the school budget won't buy it this year, but they will have it in the budget for next year. How do they think I can run a ceramics program without a kiln???  Oh well, I can apply for the grant again next year as well, and maybe rent some wheels?? ;-)
   In the mean time, I plan on ordering an L&L "Liberty Bell" model for myself... and I may need to use it for the classroom till I can get the Skutt 1028 shipped in.  I can see days of straight firings to cone 06....
