January 2, 2009, Newsletter Issue #326: How to load the kiln


1

Tip of the Week

The bottom layer of shelving should be on 1/2" - 1" posts. Your ware is placed on this first shelf, posts are set around the perimeter, and another layer of shelving placed. Make sure you leave at least 1/2" between the top of your tallest piece and the next shelf, to allow for expansion during firing. Usually for whole shelves you will use 3 or 4 posts. For half shelves, you will use 3 posts per side. Posts should be placed over each other as you rise up through the kiln.
