y, the sink is about 24 inches wide. WHOA !

thanks
hehe, its about 5 years old. good thing u didn't see some of the kiln shelves. i was cleaning dirty shelves yesterday. spattering, dripping glazes suck. especially the iron glazes. yikes !

kilns are crucibles of a 'fire dragon'. writhing within the kiln.

opening tomorrow.
thank you for your kind words!

aloha !

nice firing overall ! the sink survived, it shrank a bit ! i'm so happy i don't have to throw another ! the drain even fit too ! whoa !

i'll post photos tomorrow AM. have some interesting pieces. need to try more clay bodies w/the 'scale' glazes. was cleaning shelves due to a glaze that was overly drippy when overlapped.

overall an even cone 10.

mahalo !

ditto on the sink..... my friend Marc Kawano evidently went through a number of clay bodies before finding one suitable..... he does production however....

cheers,
