This and That

[maevebran]

Yesterday I went over to jedibuttercup's. We saw The Prestige. It was good but very very creepy. Then we downloaded the two episodes of Stargate SG1 from iTunes I had not seen. So I have now seen all 204 episodes since mid August. Yeesh.

Driving home I got pulled over in the little town of Amity. The cops there are over zealous. I got a $170 ticket. (I was apparently going 45 in 30 zone. I thought I was past the 30mph zone but I guess not.) I can go into court in a few weeks and get driving school and have the ticket expunged from my record. I think I will do that option so my insurance doesn't go up. But still it sucks.

Today, earcmacfithil is firing the Veragama wood kiln. It was a couple hundred degrees from the goal when last I checked. (The goal is 1300C and it was 1032C an hour or so ago. ) It will probably be midnight before it gets shut down.

so how long does it stay that temp after you quit feeding it wood? I mean how long can you use it? The question makes sense in my head... really!

I don't know how long it stays at tempreture but the pieces to be fired are loaded before you light the kiln and you can't take the pieces out until it cools to about 300F. So when then kiln was shut down at midnight last night it was 2 this afternoon before we opened the kiln to see the results. Stuff got covered in ash but no pretty colors so the pieces will get refired.
