The trials and tribulations of Paul Jessop living in the lovely Somerset village of Barrington setting up Barrington Pottery.

Yummy pots and enjoy the snow
looks cool, what a treat to head to work that way.......wouldn't last here 2 seconds but...
Going back a few posts -did you ever get the splintering problem solved? I had a bowl come out of the last firing with a small patch on the rim . Very annoying as the bowl had taken the best part of a day to decorate!I never ever had this problem in my old Kilns and Furnace kiln. I am now wondering if a contributary factor is the rate at which the kiln is cooling. The new top loading kiln cools quicker than the old kiln.
The snow is a good 5-6 inches thick here!! But it is beginning to thraw today.
There is nothing like loving what you do. It shows in your work and in your words. I love being connected to all the wonderful artists and craftspersons thru the internet too!
Hi Margaret, No real problem resolution, more a case of avoidance, things like, wipeing the slip off the rim, not slipping when the pot is to dry, seemed to be the best advice, I think it's to do with the cooling, my gas kiln could get a through draft when cooling and I think that was the issue with me.
well whatt did you think of the spaghetti story? Or the crabs from yesterday! Crazy guy me thinks.
