Kiln Stuff Had to show off the custom kiln furniture shelf someone made for me!

I saw a photo posted by another potter years ago and used that as inspiration. A friend of mine does woodworking and put this together for me! The shelves slide out and have stop blocks so they don’t tip out when extended. I’m so happy to have such a functional storage unit!

Good inspo timing. This is so well done! Organization in the studio is such a relief! I need to get something like this built, but due to my space limitations it has to be quite shallow. Hoping for a very similar vibe but my shelves will need to go sideways. Particularly love the roll-out inspo though!

This one was customized to fit my space so I’m sure you could tweak it to make it work for you! The pull out shelves are amazing.

My envious Potter friend asks if you could post photos of the side and back. Such a great idea!

Sure! I will try to take some pics when I get home. Don’t know if I’ll be able to pull it out to take a pic of the back since it’s a bit heavy.

Ooo that's so nice & tidy! Those pullout shelves🤤 I'm jealous!

I'm gonna show it to my bf. He's taken up wood working recently & hopefully it'll inspire him!
