I live in North County San Diego and I have no kiln. I have many years experience in Pottery but my little studio in the garage of my rented condo is no place for a kiln. Not to mention no permission from the rental office. I have a wheel and a slab roller and the studio is cram packed with unfired cone 6 and cone 10 small pieces.

Have you tried any community centers? There are quite a lot of them in San Diego and you can do a zip code search to see which ones are near you and those that offer ceramics. See if they can help you fire.

Hi TJR, Yes, this is a wonderful place to live. It never freezes so working in the garage studio never gets too cold. Great place for gardening also. I've had chard and lettuces growing all winter this year. Thanks!

Well, Oh dear, the woman I spoke to yesterday has a few kilns. She said to fire a full load to cone 10 would be $250. and the bisque fire would also be $250. Yikes!! So maybe the best bet would be for me to continue my Craigs list search for a used kiln and maybe put it in my daughters garage.

Lucille Oka

I am sad to hear about this difficulty. But the person you spoke to is not the first person to overcharge or price 'gouge'. You offered to do a workshop in exchange for firing and she still said you must pay $250? That is sad. Don't worry you will find a way to fire. Keep looking and keep on asking. Do not be discouraged.

Lucille Oka

I forgot to ask you, how large are the community center kilns? I paid (a few years ago) $60 per cubic feet for each firing of bisque and of glaze. I did not do the loading or the unloading. I had no control over any of the firing process.
