iz. It is common to see shelves encrusted like ships' bottoms
with kiln wash and this is stupid. When wash gets thick it should
be scraped down and applied thinly.

13. Avery Huyghe's suggestion cf using clay cookies under your
pots will save work if your glazes are fluid.

14. Shelves with 3 supports don't juggle, and 3 posts are easier
to load around than four.

15. Check your support posts frequently. Keep their ends flat.
Shelves won'tstick to the white triangular posts available from
commercial outlets. If you use clay leveling pads then sprinkle
them with silica to avoid them sticking to your shelves.

16. A flash light helps when you're loading to see into difficult
places. It will pay for itself in no time. A small mirror can bea
handy aid too, especially in a top loader.
