Kiln Share Program
do you love making pottery but need somewhere to fire it? I have a program where you can pay per piece to rent a space in the kiln!
What is the kiln share program?
This program allows you to do all your work from your home or studio and then i would do handle all of the firing for you. i would take care of the loading, firing and unloading of the kiln by myself. all you need to do is drop off the pieces you want fired and pick them up when they're done.
If you're interested in the kiln share program, please fill out this form and i'll get back to you.
Pricing:
Pricing is based on cubic inch.
Bisque firing is 0.06 per cubic inch
