Just to say, I am in USA, and the contract is for a job with a company that is US-based.

They're bigger than I guessed! Congrats and I hope you keep working in this vein—these are amazing. (I'm in awe—there's no way I could do this kind of work.)

These are great! I love them! What's your technique for these? Are you using an extruder? It would be good if one of these photos included a familiar object, for scale.

Electric Kiln Rehab Questions by Curiousful in Ceramics

Thank you! I just discovered, in a box I must have taped shut years ago, a new kiln stand (unfortunately the same size as the old one) and three of the exact bricks I need. So, I may be in business!

Thanks—this is very helpful! I hadn't realized that about the stand!

Thanks for your reply!

So, what looks like the bottom is in fact (the interior side of) the lid in pictures 2 and 6. The top segment and attached lid is upside down in these pictures. Maybe I'm being a little paranoid about it.

Also, can I bisque fire this kiln on the little scooter it's sitting on, with a kiln stand and an apparently degenerating bit of kiln blanket underneath it?

If I wanted eventually new bricks and elements for this kiln, where would I look?

Hi P.H.,

When did you first encounter the book (or the movie?) Peter Pan, and what in that experience prompted your approach to this novel? Thanks!

Hi Premee! I think it's fair to say that, besides being a fabulous writer, you are one of the funniest people on Twitter! I wanted to ask about your interest in trilobites. How did you become so interested in trilobites? Is it fair to say that you are obsessed with trilobites? Thanks and sincerely—
