Cracked Kiln Shelf

[bhawbaker]

Same thing happened to me doing the kiln pressed glass project.  I normally have the shelf on 1/2 inch posts to even the heating, and I should have put the shelf directly on the kiln floor.

 

But all is not lost!  I just cut up the broken shelf with a tile saw (using the tile blade) into 1″ strips to use as dams, holders for screen melts, etc.
