This is because I got close enough to put a lot of horsehair on hot saggar pots before they cooled.
( our high tech kiln behind the cut: )
We had to leave before the rest of the pots cooled enough to be removed from the barrel, but I have great hopes for one and think another will be OK.
It was exciting anyway and am thinking of doing a saggar firing here at the house and am going to try the amphora shapes in it again.
