Another bisque today, started on the apparently empty bottle and got it to nearly 300! Unfortunately I was caught by my neighbour for a conversation..so restarted on the newer bottle at 115 degrees!! It needs a slower start anyway, as there are some larger pieces in that I wish to survive!! 350 and all is well so far.
It was forecast hot today, but we've been mostly overcast so far- mountain weather! It is apparently clearer only five miles away!!
My "slo-cooker" has developed a crack, and so is leaking wax...back to the pan of water and tin can of wax and paraffin, and waxing in the kitchen...with open windows!!!!
I had a better night's sleep last night, not so tired today.

Burnt wax has a certain quality, yes.
One pottery I worked in had the cafe on the next floor up, directly above the kiln room. We only did wax resist once.....
When I first saw 'waxing in the kitchen', I thought, 'Legs?'
Perhaps not?
