A Much Needed Victory

I really needed this...
It's originally from this summer's gas firing, but was sadly underfired. Now all of it's bits got good and melty. 

Tonight is being spent burning another full load of bowls for the TideWater's Souper Supper  and I'm hoping to get those out and the kiln reloaded with the next full load of bowls by tomorrow night. There's even a few question marks loaded in tonight's load!

That one is great, so nice to see the refire,

such quick turn around, my kiln doesn't cool down that quick, how do you do it? open the lid and peeps - at what temp?

Linda, I selected my glaze pallet for specifically for "Crash Cooling". Spy holes are left out until it hits 300 then I prop the lid open until it's 150 or so. Takes about 9 to 12 hours and I've never had problems with quarts inversion (that I know of)...
Thanks for all the pats guys.
