Default Can you tell me WHY...

why are some of my beads coming out of the kiln perfect, then in about 10 minutes a few have a hairline crack from one side of mandrel to the other so that they will actually break in 2 halves. funny thing is this was NOT happening at the beginning of my beading adventures, not that I've been doing this for about 5 weeks...this is happening. Am I getting to cocky and brave after a few weeks and getting sloppy??
help
all cracked up in Connecticut
(ok maybe not all but 1/8th cracked up)
