Why I don't wire pieces off the batt immediately after throwing them

The short answer is that if you can control the rate of drying, it's much more convenient to leave your pieces on the batt until they've firmed up enough to trim and burnish them before wiring off.

I discuss the various processes I do to them and how I control the drying, as well as a few other drying/timing factors, but that's the tl;dr of it.
