Bumps In One Life

Sense I tried to reopen my ceramic business it seem to be one thing after anther.

First my pour table is down and we had to tear out the pump motor and had to find anther one. My Son Sawyer got one for free. I can’t complain about that plus that’s great price “free”
But here the kicker

The bracket to the pump motor doesn’t fit.
Sawyer said he could make me anther one but he been busy fighting forest fires. He will have a couple days off starting tomorrow but I Feeling time…guilty asking him Because he worked 14 days straight and he usual puts in a 10 hours more a day.
Plus I know he needs to get things line up for college, which start the 27th of this month.

So Sunday I decide to try to fire some greenware and my small kiln. On greenware it takes about 4 to 8 hours as your turning the kiln to high and it went well pass that.
Because I forgot to

Close the vent once I turn on the kiln to high.
So I will need to refire the greenware which was to be fired in the small kiln and I’m sort of eating the cost of firing the greenware.
What I’ll do is put this misfired greenware in the larger kiln and refire it with some more greenware.
So it comes right down to the space that I have to refire the boo boo greenware and I could of fired new greenware in that space.
