Single Fire , Olympic Kiln, Steven Hill glazes

First Single Firing with Steven Hill glazes!!!

This was a single firing in my quirkly little gas kiln using Steven Hill glazes. This "odd" kiln fires cone 5 1/2 on the bottom and cone 9 on the top.  I used Steven Hill's formulated glazes for cone 6 electric firing.... all turned out beautifully!!  I also used John Britt glazes from his Ceramics Monthly article about using Turner White as a base in cone 6 to cone 10.  John's orange recipe was my liner and modifier. ( really nice smooth glaze)

The firing took 11 hours, but I feel I can cut this to about 10 hours.
