We Fire for Anyone!
Yup! We fire ceramic works for everyone, not just our members.
How Does It Work?
-
Step 1
Bring your pieces to the shop during open hours.
-
Step 2
We fire your work in our large Skutt 1227 kilns. Bisque firings go to cone 04, and glaze firings go to cone 6. Custom firing schedules may be arranged.
-
Step 3
Firing typically takes 1–2 weeks.
-
Step 4
We’ll call you when your work is done, and you can pick it up during store hours.

Planning Your Firing
Book a Half or Full Kiln Load
Availability for half and full kiln loads is limited, so we recommend scheduling at least 2 weeks in advance. Pricing includes loading and unloading your work.
Rent Our Kiln for Speed or Special Programs
If you need a quicker turnaround or a specialty firing, such as cone 5 or a slow cool, you can rent our smaller Skutt 818 kiln for $50.
Use Our Stilts and Cookies
Stilting: We charge $1 per item, and you don’t need to bring your own stilts. Pieces to be stilted must weigh less than a standard mug. If glaze drips onto our stilts, there’s a $5 replacement fee per stilt. You’re welcome to bring stilts from home; just make sure they’re clearly marked as yours.
Cookies: We have kiln cookies available. If a runny glaze drips onto one of ours, there’s a $1 replacement fee. You can also bring your own.
Protect the Kiln
If glaze or other materials damage a kiln shelf and it can be repaired, the fee is $25 per half shelf. Damage to elements, bricks, or other kiln parts is charged at the cost of materials and labor.
