Abstract

An apparatus for supporting ceramic insulator greenware including container means for supporting the ceramic insulator greenware in a first position and integral spacing means integrally connected with the container means for supporting the container means in a second position. One embodiment of the invention supports the ceramic insulator greenware such that the lower flange of the weather shed of the ceramic insulator greenware is supported above the apparatus so as not to interfere with the glazing coat. Refractory fire brick normally used for spacing and the labor involved in placing and leveling the fire brick/support arrangement is eliminated.
