🏺 Potter's Wheel and Kiln Lab: Clay Throwing, Drying Shrinkage and Firing
Throw a vessel on a Ukrainian kick wheel by editing its radius profile, watch wet-clay stresses decide whether the wall holds, then dry it and fire it in a Blender-built wood-fired updraft kiln. Models clay yield stress and shell buckling, moisture diffusion with 5-8 % drying shrinkage, a kiln energy balance, and heat conduction through the wall with the 573 C quartz inversion and thermal stress.
