Rain on the parade

Day 1 of the 6 day shift cycle. Shift 4:00 am till midday
Press - Mulder
Tiles made: Faitiere No.1 Brun Masse - 4800
Dry Tiles unstacked: Faitiere No.1, Rives Chartreuse BV

The team before us had ben making the same tiles, so in theory we should just be able to press the go button. But they had the machine badly set up and we had to tweak a few things.
The stupid mouleuse got blocked with clay and we lost half an hour sorting that out.
The Rives we were unstacking were awful, whoever made them was obviously having trouble with the DTP. We had to bin over 100 of the tiles.
The weaher is wet and windy which is a shame for the town's annual clay/ceramics festival. We will go tomorrow afternoon with some friends. The invited potters are from the Catalan. Last year's exhibition was stunning.
