Discussion Of Burlington Chert

<< < (6/6)

Ahnlaashock:
42 hours drying, and 42 hours at full heat.  There are some light pink color changes, but I think the heat is just too low.  The piece I tested flakes a little better, and works a lot better with hammerstone, but I think it needs either more heat, or more time.  This batch is going to get 42 hours of heat, a cool down, and then another shorter heat cycle to see if that changes anything. 
After I get the kiln set up and running, I suspect I will abandon the turkey roaster, at least for Burlington.
